True, it does not mention that it's from Ali, I thought it was common knowledge, but he is credited in the source code comment. I'll credit him in the readme also if it bothers you so much. Although the amount of effort I put into the fork is probably equal to what Ali made, so there is a reason why I posted my version. So try the stock version, see what features are missing for your needs, then try mine, do a diff and patch if I have the features you may need, and have your own custom fork. Keep in mind though that I made my neatvi a general purpose editor that I use for everything now, I comletely got rid of VIM from my system, which is considered harmful. So ideally my wish is to make people do the same. Many people use dwm and st and it grew to have many good patches and infinite user control. So why can't we have the same good things for a text editor? I tried all text editors listed on the rocks page and all of them were not suitable for hacking in some way, just like how easy it is to hack on st or dwm for example. But neatvi came in as a saving hero. I wouldn't mind also adding other Ali's apps on the rocks page. Regards,
