TODO & Future Features

This is a list of potential features to implement to bring nvim.ts closer to the functionality of real Vim.

High Priority

Undo / Redo: Implement an undo tree (u and <C-r>).
Command Mode: Implement the : command-line for commands like :w, :q, :wq, :e.
Search: Implement / and ? for forward and backward search, including n and N to jump between matches.
Counts for Motions/Operators: Add support for counts, e.g., 3w (move 3 words), 5j (move 5 lines down), d3w (delete 3 words).
. (Repeat) command: Store the last change (operator + motion) and allow repeating it with ..

c (change) operator: cc (change line), cw (change word), etc.
x (delete character) and s (substitute character) operators.
Text Objects: iw (inner word), aw (a word), i" (inner quotes), etc. This would allow for commands like diw (delete inner word).
r (replace) operator: r{char} to replace the character under the cursor.

G: Go to the last line of the file.
H / M / L: Move cursor to High, Middle, or Low portion of the visible screen.
* / #: Search for the word currently under the cursor.
%: Jump to matching bracket (), [], {}.
( / ): Move by sentence.
{ / }: Move by paragraph.

Status Bar: A bar at the bottom showing the current mode, file name, cursor position, etc.
Line Numbers: Display line numbers in a gutter.
Buffer Tabs: A tabline at the top to show and switch between open buffers.
Scrolling: Implement viewport scrolling for files larger than the screen.
Theming: Allow for customizable colors.

Saving files: Connect the :w command to actually save file content (e.g., via download or File System Access API).
Opening files: An :e command or file picker to load new files into buffers.
