Problem: Several win_T fields are declared as "int" or "char" but are
used strictly as boolean flags with TRUE/FALSE values. The
integer types obscure the boolean intent and are wider than
needed.
Solution: Change the following win_T members to bool (stdbool.h) and
update their assignments from TRUE/FALSE to true/false
accordingly.
The following conversions have been done:
- int -> bool (10 members):
w_set_curswant, w_botfill, w_old_botfill, w_do_win_fix_cursor,
w_popup_fixed, w_border_highlight_isset, w_cline_folded,
w_redr_status, w_arg_idx_invalid, w_has_scrollbar
- char -> bool (4 members):
w_topline_was_set, w_ru_empty, w_fold_manual, w_foldinvalid
No existing code compares these members against TRUE/FALSE explicitly or
uses ++/-- / bitwise ops on them, so only plain assignments are
affected.
Excluded:
- w_locked (recursion counter with ++/--),
- w_want_scrollbar (may hold -1 from dict_get_bool),
- w_winbar_height (used in arithmetic and exposed as number via
getwininfo()).

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 BUILD.md and supported platforms 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_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo 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
