Nano-rs

Nano-rs is a simple text editor written in Rust, inspired by the simplicity and ease-of-use of the Nano editor. It supports basic text editing features such as insertion, deletion, cursor navigation, and more. It also includes syntax highlighting thanks to the syntect crate.

WIP

This project is in the early stages, not usable at the current moment.

Installation

First, ensure you have Rust installed on your system. If not, download it from the official Rust website.

Then, clone the project and build it using cargo:

git clone https://github.com/itsyaasir/nano-rs.git
cd nano-rs
cargo build --release

This will create an executable in the target/release directory.

Usage

To start the editor, run:

./target/release/nano-rs

To open a specific file, pass the file name as an argument:

./target/release/nano-rs myfile.txt

Features

  • Basic text editing (insertion, deletion, etc.)
  • Cursor navigation
  • Syntax highlighting for multiple languages
  • Reading and writing to files
