Here's what it looks like right now, editing itself.

Usage

Clone the project and run cargo build.

Then to start the editor run ./target/iota /path/to/file.txt. Or simply ./target/iota to open an empty buffer.

You can also create buffers from stdin.

# open a buffer with the output of `ls`
ls | ./target/iota

You can move the cursor around with the arrow keys.

To save, press Ctrl-s. To exit, press Ctrl-q, followed by Ctrl-c.
