Vim-fork focused on extensibility and usability

nvim_buf_set_text does not handle negative row numbers correctly: for
example,
nvim_buf_set_text(0, -2, 0, -1, 20, {"Hello", "world"})
should replace the 2nd to last line in the buffer with "Hello" and the
first 20 characters of the last line with "world". Instead, it reports
"start_row out of bounds". This happens because when negative line
numbers are used, they are incremented by one additional number to make
the non-negative line numbers end-exclusive. However, the line numbers
for nvim_buf_set_text should be end-inclusive.
In #15181 we handled this for nvim_buf_get_text by adding a new
parameter to `normalize_index`. We can solve the problem with
nvim_buf_set_text by simply availing ourselves of this new argument.
This is a breaking change, but makes the semantics of negative line
numbers much clearer and more obvious (as well as matching
nvim_buf_get_text).
BREAKING CHANGE: Existing usages of nvim_buf_set_text that use negative
line numbers will be off-by-one.

Neovim is a project that seeks to aggressively refactor Vim in order to:
- Simplify maintenance and encourage contributions
- Split the work between multiple developers
- Enable advanced UIs without modifications to the core
- Maximize extensibility
See the Introduction wiki page and Roadmap for more information.
Features
- Modern GUIs
- API access from any language including C/C++, C#, Clojure, D, Elixir, Go, Haskell, Java, JavaScript/Node.js, Julia, Lisp, Lua, Perl, Python, Racket, Ruby, Rust
- Embedded, scriptable terminal emulator
- Asynchronous job control
- Shared data (shada) among multiple editor instances
- XDG base directories support
- Compatible with most Vim plugins, including Ruby and Python plugins
See :help nvim-features for the full list!
Install from package
Pre-built packages for Windows, macOS, and Linux are found on the Releases page.
Managed packages are in Homebrew, Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, Arch Linux, Void Linux, Gentoo, and more!
Install from source
See the Building Neovim wiki page for details.
The build is CMake-based, but a Makefile is provided as a convenience. After installing the dependencies, run the following command.
make CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo
sudo make install
To install to a non-default location:
make CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/full/path/
make install
CMake hints for inspecting the build:
cmake --build build --target helplists all build targets.build/CMakeCache.txt(orcmake -LAH build/) contains the resolved values of all CMake variables.build/compile_commands.jsonshows the full compiler invocations for each translation unit.
Transitioning from Vim
See :help nvim-from-vim for instructions.
