View source for Yi/OldNews

* Simplify creation of keybindings; More powerful combinators.
* Tons of fixes
* Support for templates
* Syntax hilight modes for Cabal & C++
* GHC 6.8 support (and Yi is ever easier to build)
* word completion infrastructure
* vim: more window commands implemented
* Very important architectural cleanups (07:07, 15 July 2007 (UTC)):
** Buffer implementation is purely functional
** IO monad is only found at the toplevel (buffer-only and editor-only actions do not rely on IO)
** Window management is frontend independent
** Factored indent-code across keymaps
** All dependency cycles removed (makes for an easier understanding of the code)
* C-code removed from Yi
* Dynamic selection of frontend
* Cleaned up the multiple package mess
* Console buffer (old news)
* Common buffer backend (across all frontends) (15:08, 2 June 2007 (UTC))
* Overlays (thanks Ben Moseley)
* per-buffer extensible state (11:44, 28 May 2007 (UTC))
* Synchronous keymaps: the behaviour of the keymap (ie. the underlying parser) can depend on the editor state.
* Full-dynamic Yi
** it's now possible to change any part of the Yi codebase and see the result with a mere 'M-x reconfigE' (take that, Steve Yegge :))
* Yi is now hosted on darcs.haskell.org/yi
* Dired mode (thanks Ben Moseley)
* Yi 0.2 released!
* Buffer-specific code is now contained in BufferM monad
* Multiple marks per buffer
* All keymaps use a unified mechanism! (and are therefore potentially composable)
* Miniwindows for vty frontend
* Miniwindows for GTK frontend
* Basic support for query-replace (emacs)
* Rudimentary support for indentation
* Syntax highlighting in GTK frontend
* Completion for file names
* Incremental search (emacs)
* Completion for M-x, and buffer switch.
* History for emacs mode minibuffer
* New commands and keybindings can be defined easily and dynamically
* Yi is an haskell interpreter! 
** Possibility to run editor actions interactively (similar to emacs M-x)
** Configuration is just a haskell module exporting (yiMain :: Action)
* Possibility to evaluate haskell expressions interactively.
* New, unified way to define Keybindings
* Vty frontend supports Haskell (lexical) syntax highlighting (thanks Stefan O'Rear)
* GTK frontend works in Win32
* GTK frontend (in addition of Vty frontend) (requires gtk>=0.9.10.4)
* Linewrap support
* Bugfixes in scrolling
* Lots of simplifications in the cursor management
* Keymaps can now process typed events instead of Chars (no extra decode step)
* Yi.Debug added for debugging
* Vty frontend replaces Curses frontend
