Anvil text editor

Anvil is a graphical, multi-pane tiling editor that makes bold use of the mouse and integrates closely with the shell. It supports syntax highlighting, multiple cursors and selections, remote file editing, and contains a powerful text manipulation language.

Anvil is inspired by Acme. Acme-like editors such as Anvil follow the Unix philosophy of composing many small existing tools to solve a problem. They treat shell commands and pipelines as first class entities that can generate and manipulate text in your editor.

Anvil runs on Linux, Windows, macOS, FreeBSD and OpenBSD.

A more comprehensive list of features Anvil supports is:

• Acme features such as integrated OS command execution, structural regular expressions, plumbing, and editing session persistence through dump and load
• Syntax Highlighting
• Multiple cursor and multiple selection support
• Remote file editing and command execution over SSH
• Extensibility through the REST API
• Terminal emulation
• Customizable key bindings
• Numerous build-in editing commands
• Appearance can be customized with themes
