vi-like editor based on Plan 9's structural regular expressions

$ luarocks install vix

vix is a highly efficient screen-oriented text editor combining the strengths of both vi(m) and sam.

To ensure vix and its dependencies are properly found when installed via LuaRocks --local,
add the following to your shell profile (~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc):

# Add LuaRocks local bin to PATH
export PATH="$HOME/.luarocks/bin:$PATH"

# Setup Lua paths for local modules
eval $(luarocks path --lua-version 5.4)

# Enable man pages
export MANPATH="$HOME/.luarocks/share/man:$MANPATH"
