This plugin provides Emacs-style keybindings for CodeJar, a minimalist code editor. It enhances the editing experience by adding familiar Emacs shortcuts for navigation and text manipulation.

To activate Emacs keybindings in your CodeJar editor, initialize CodeJar and apply the Emacs keybindings as shown below:

import { CodeJar } from 'https://esm.sh/codejar';
import emacsKeybindings from 'https://esm.sh/codejar-emacs';
const highlight = (editor) => {
	//highlight function
};
const editorElement = document.querySelector('.editor');
const jar = CodeJar(editorElement, highlight, {
    keybindings: emacsKeybindings  
});

// Example usage of CodeJar with Emacs keybindings
jar.onUpdate((code) => {
    console.log('Code updated:', code);
});

The Emacs plugin includes support for the following keyboard actions:

• Navigation: Move cursor left, right, up, down, and by word.
• Text Manipulation: Delete characters or words, cut to the end of the line, and transpose characters.

Each function is mapped to familiar Emacs-style shortcuts, such as Ctrl-f to move forward and Ctrl-b to move backward.

You can extend or modify the keybindings by editing the emacsKeybindings array in codejar.emacs.js.

const emacsKeybindings = [
    // Define or modify keybindings here
    {
        key: "s",
        ctrl: true,
        name: "Save FIle",
        action: (editor, jar) => saveFile(editor, jar)
    },
    // Additional keybindings...
];

• This project is a POC, still early in development
• The browser don't let us use a few of the key combinations, like crtl w or crtl n.
