# DGED
Because there is room for one more minimalistic text editor!
DGED is what happens if I remove everything I do not need from
GNU Emacs and only implement the things I need to be productive.
The editor was created as a learning exercise and to create something that I
can use as a daily driver. If anyone else happens to find it useful I will
be flattered and suprised.
## Features
- [x] Syntax highlighting
- [x] TOML configuration file
- [x] Editor commands (M-x)
- [x] Absolutely no plugin system
- [x] Terminal only
- [x] Mouse-free editing
- [ ] LSP Client implementation
## Contributing
Contributions are of course welcome. Please open a PR on the Github repository.
## Development Setup
The editor is built using BSD make so that needs to be installed.
To enable syntax highlighting (default) you will also need the tree-sitter library
installed.
All of this can be obtained using the Nix flake. To create a development shell with all
needed dependencies, issue:
```
$ nix develop
```
Currently, tree-sitter grammars can only be automatically fetched when using the Nix setup.
To build the editor, first create the build folder
```
$ mkdir -p build
```
Then call make
```
$ bmake
```
## Installing
If using nix, installation can be done by referring the flake with for example `nix profile`:
```
$ nix profile install .
```
or by using `home-manager` or `configuration.nix`.
If not using Nix, obtain the needed dependencies and then issue
```
$ make
```
followed by
```
# make install
```
Optionally, you can set `prefix` to a value of your liking.
## Documentation
The features of the editor are documented in the man page (`man dged`).
