"Neovim is an effort to aggressively re-factor the Vim source code and improve on:

  • It will provide first class support for embedding.
  • It lets you extend the editor in any programming language.
  • It supports more powerful GUIs.
  • Vim plugins will work with it.

Hosted on Bounty Source it has reached $25,500 of it's goal of $10,000, although there are still 3 days to reach further stretch goals! You can view the projects current progress and even pitch in over at GitHub. As someone who has started using Vim full-time over the last 6 months I feel that this is a very good project for the longevity of Vim."

    Erm, that's the exact same meaning in perl. Unless there's a bug in the perl version, there should be absolutely no difference between m[^/$], m{^/$}, or even m#^/$#.

    Yeah, feel free to ignore the above post. Believe I'll go with Way Too Much Coffee as my excuse for failing at basic reading comprehension.

      No worries, after rereading my comment I probably could've worded it more clearly anyway.
