# J.A.T.E.
_**J**ust **A**nother **T**erminal-based **E**ditor (JATE)_ is an attempt to make a fully functional bare bones text editor in C ( without any dependencies by directly manipulating terminal via [V100 escape sequences](https://vt100.net/docs/vt100-ug/chapter3.html) )

Insipred from [kilo text editor](https://github.com/antirez/kilo)

## Status : [Beta Version](https://github.com/Arsenic-ATG/Text-Editor/releases)

The editor can now :
- [x] View already existing file on the system. 
- [x] Edit a text file
- [x] Check if the file is in modified state or not ( and warn if you try to exit a modified file without saving )
- [x] Save chagnes to the open file ( using `Ctrl-s` )
- [x] Quit (using `Ctrl-q` )

---

But still it can't :
- [ ] Create a new file
- [ ] Save a blank file ( Save-as feature )
- [ ] support text highlithing for C/C++

| **⚠️ WARNING:** The software is still in Beta version so if you planning to use it, I suggest making regular backups of your work in case you run into bugs in the editor.|
