acme3k

A modern, usable fork of acme2k, itself a fork of plan9port's acme.

Differences from acme2k

• Runtime configuration via ~/.acmerc — no recompilation, only restart.
• Themes via @include, so colors and fonts can live in separate files.
• Extra keybindings: arrow keys, Home/End, Ctrl+C/X/V/Z/Y, Delete.
• Newcol / Newrow toggle via newcolnewrow.
• Cool column buttons and cool scrollbar background as eye candy.
• Show/hide dotfiles in directory windows.
• and much more

Requirements

• plan9port with /usr/local/plan9/bin in $PATH (for rc, win, 9p, etc.).

Building

./install.sh

install.sh copies o.acme to /usr/local/bin/acme.

Configuration

See man acme (section CONFIGURATION). Short version:

~/.acmerc:
    shell /bin/rc
    autoindent yes
    @include .acmethemes/ghibli

All keys, defaults, and the @include mechanism are documented in the man page.
