A powerful Terminal User Interface (TUI) application for creating, editing, and managing HyperLists - a methodology for describing anything in a hierarchical, structured format.

## What is HyperList?

HyperList is a universal methodology for describing anything - any state, item, pattern, action, process, transition, program, instruction set, etc. It can be used as an outliner, a todo list handler, a process design tool, a data modeler, or any other way you want to describe something.

Learn more about the HyperList methodology at: [https://isene.org/hyperlist/](https://isene.org/hyperlist/)

For historical context and the original VIM implementation, see: [hyperlist.vim](https://github.com/isene/hyperlist.vim)

## What's New in v1.9.4

### Property Coloring Improvements
- **Ampersand support**: Properties like "Day 1 & 2:" now color correctly
- **Chained properties**: Lines like "09.03: Silje: Opening" now color the entire "09.03: Silje:" chain red

### Performance Optimization
- **Faster navigation**: File change detection now runs every 2 seconds instead of on every keypress
- Improved responsiveness when holding DOWN/UP keys

## Previous Release: v1.9.3

### Help Viewer Navigation Fixed
- Fixed invisible cursor on blank separator lines in help (?) and documentation (??) viewers
- Presentation mode state now properly preserved when entering/exiting viewers

## Previous Release: v1.9.2

### Presentation Mode Fixed
- **Dynamic folding**: Presentation mode now works like hyperlist.vim - folds/unfolds dynamically as you navigate
- **Cursor preservation**: Entering presentation mode (C-P) stays on the current item instead of jumping to the first line
- **Proper navigation**: Moving up/down reveals the path to the current item while folding everything else

## Previous Release: v1.9.1

### External File Change Detection
- **Auto-detect external changes**: HyperList now monitors when the file is modified by other processes (vim, another Claude Code session, etc.)
- **Reload prompt**: Shows "File changed externally. Reload? (y/n)" when changes are detected
- **Cursor preservation**: Your cursor position is preserved after reload
- **Skip option**: Press 'n' to ignore external changes and continue editing

### Bug Fix: Quote Coloring in Comments
- Fixed an issue where quotes inside parentheses (comments) like `(this is a "comment" in here)` would break the cyan coloring
- The entire parentheses content now stays cyan as intended

## Previous Release: v1.9.0

### Item Tagging & Batch Operations
- **Tag items**: Press 't' to tag/untag items for batch operations
- **Auto-advance**: Cursor automatically moves to next item after tagging for fast consecutive tagging
- **Visual feedback**: Tagged items show dark blue background, lighter blue when selected
- **Status indicator**: Shows `[T:N]` in status line with count of tagged items
- **Clear tags**: Press 'u' to clear all tags
- **Regex tagging**: Press 'C-T' to tag all items matching a regex pattern
- **Batch operations**: Delete (D/C-D), yank (y/Y), and indent (Tab/S-Tab) work on all tagged items
- Tag consecutive or non-consecutive items, then perform operations on the entire set

### External Editor Support
- **Edit in $EDITOR**: Press 'E' to spawn your preferred editor (vim, nano, emacs, etc.)
- **Seamless workflow**: File saved automatically, editor launched, changes reloaded on exit
- **Terminal management**: Terminal state properly saved and restored
- Uses `$EDITOR` environment variable (defaults to vi if not set)

### Enhanced Paste & Navigation
- **Paste above**: Press 'P' to paste above current item (vim-style)
- **Paste below**: Press 'p' to paste below current item (existing)
- **Presentation mode**: Moved to 'C-P' (was 'P') for consistency
- **Templates**: Moved to 'T' key (was 't')
- **Undo**: Moved to 'U' key (was 'u') - consistent with RTFM

### Smart Modified Flag
- **Intelligent tracking**: `[+]` indicator automatically removed when undoing back to original file state
- **Clean status**: No false "modified" indicator after complete undo to original

## Previous Release: v1.8.0

### Multi-Line Paste Support
- **Paste multiple lines**: When pasting multi-line content into item insertion prompts ('o', 'O', 'a', 'A'), each line becomes a separate item
- **Visual feedback**: Shows `[+N lines]` indicator during multi-line paste
- **Smart insertion**: All pasted lines inserted as siblings at the same level
- Great for importing bullet lists from PDFs, emails, or other documents
- Requires rcurses 6.1.5+

### PDF/LaTeX Export
- **Export to PDF**: `:export pdf filename.pdf` - Full LaTeX-based PDF generation
- **Export to LaTeX**: `:export latex filename.tex` - Get the LaTeX source
- **Professional output**: Color-coded elements, table of contents, headers
- **Complete HyperList support**: All syntax elements rendered beautifully
- Requires: texlive-latex-base and texlive-latex-extra packages

### System Clipboard Integration
- **Yank to clipboard**: 'y' and 'Y' now copy to system clipboard
- **Middle-click paste**: Yanked items can be pasted into other terminals
- **Preserves indentation**: Copied text maintains proper structure

## Previous Version Features (v1.4.0)

### Configuration Lines & Theming
- **Configuration Lines**: Add settings at the bottom of HyperList files using `((option=value, option2=value))`
- **Theme Support**: Three color themes - `light` (bright colors), `normal` (standard), `dark` (for light terminals)
- **Line Wrapping**: Enable with `wrap=yes` - wrapped lines use `+` prefix per HyperList spec
- **Line Numbers**: Enable with `show_numbers=yes`
- **Manual Configuration**: Use `:set option=value` to change settings on the fly
- **View Settings**: Use `:set` to see all settings, `:set option` to see one setting
- **Auto-apply**: Settings from config lines are applied when files are loaded
- **Invisible Config Lines**: Config lines are stored but never displayed in the editor
- **Persistent Settings**: All `:set` commands automatically update the config line in the file

### Configuration Options
- `theme` - Color theme: light, normal, or dark
- `wrap` - Line wrapping: yes or no
- `show_numbers` - Show line numbers: yes or no
- `fold_level` - Default fold level: 0-99 (0=all folded, 99=all open)
- `auto_save` - Enable auto-save: yes or no
- `auto_save_interval` - Auto-save frequency in seconds
- `tab_width` - Indentation width: 2-8 spaces

Example config line: `((theme=dark, wrap=yes, fold_level=2))`

### Using Configuration

#### Per-File Configuration
Add a configuration line at the bottom of any HyperList file:
```
My HyperList
    Item 1
    Item 2

((fold_level=2, theme=light))
```

#### Runtime Configuration
Use `:set` commands while editing:
```
:set                    # Show all current settings
:set fold_level         # Show current fold level
:set fold_level=3       # Set fold level to 3
:set theme=dark         # Switch to dark theme
:set wrap=yes           # Enable line wrapping
```

All `:set` commands automatically update the file's configuration line.
