Simple vim style terminal text editor

sustext's Issues

Vertical Scrolling

Scrolling vertically has caused multiple issues.

• Opening the editor as a standalone application with no inputted file leaves the cursor unable to move vertically
• Scrolling through a file works but is very buggy. It overlays text on itself and overlays the buffer. Might be a good idea to look at the editorRefresh function or appendbuffer functions

Flags not working properly

Giving command line arguments, the flags for the editor do not process them correctly

Example
./bin/sustext -f [path-to-file] should open a file given the -f argument, but it does not register at all

Linking C++ objects

Transition from C to C++ causes errors when linking object files, Output, IO, and AbAppend specifically, errors could mainly resolve within the makefile and compiler

Title screen

Title screen only shows after the user presses a button/key rather than right on the program's start

Terminal state doesn't reset on crash

In the case of the program crashing, there is no error catching to let the program exit naturally. This causes issues with the terminal after the program crashes

(As a bandage to this issue use the command reset if the program crashes)

Horizontal Scrolling

Similar to Issue #5 but horizontally

The buffer messes up as the cursor is moved past the right edge of the terminal

Word Wrap

Allow the editor to wrap words in the window if the user sets a flag after running the program

Editor Draw Rows not working

The initial screen should show the information about the text editor and clear the current terminal. It does not work. I cant tell if this is from the terminal class or the io class

Lack of documentation

Clearing the text editor on exit

After exiting the editor in terminal, when you scroll up you can still see the outline of ~s that weren't cleared
