I did some work on structural editing a while back, using Tree-sitter to get the AST (abstract syntax tree, the parse tree used for structural edits). I now use the editor as my daily driver but don't use or feel the need for structural editing commands that often - probably partly out of habit and partly because text edits are just better for most editing. I do miss the "wrap" command when using other editors, but it could be implemented reasonably easily without a parse tree. I found that a lot of the structural edits correspond to indentation levels anyway, but the parse tree definitely helps. HN post: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29787861 |
