This commit will hopefully allow the cimport method to be used just as one would use #inclue <header.h> in C. It follows the following method: 1. create a pseudoheader file that #include's all the requested header files 2. runs the pseudoheader through the C preprocessor (it will try various compilers if available on the system). 3. runs the preprocessed file through a C formatter, which attempts to group statements on one line. For example, a struct definition that was formerly on several lines will take just one line after formatting. This is done so that unique declarations can be detected. Duplicates are thus easy to remove. 4. remove lines that are too complex for the LuaJIT C parser (such as: Objective-C block syntax, crazy enums defined on linux, ...) 5. remove duplicate declarations 6. pass result to ffi.cdef

Neovim is a project that seeks to aggressively refactor Vim in order to:
- Simplify maintenance and encourage contributions
- Split the work between multiple developers
- Enable the implementation of new/modern user interfaces without any modifications to the core source
- Improve extensibility with a new plugin architecture
For lots more details, see the wiki!
What's been done so far
- Cleaned up source tree, leaving only core files
- Removed support for legacy systems and moved to C99
- Removed tons of
FEAT_*macros with unifdef - Reduced C code from 300k lines to 170k
- Removed tons of
- Enabled modern compiler features and optimizations
- Formatted entire source with uncrustify
- Replaced autotools build system with CMake
- Implemented continuous integration and test coverage
- Wrote 60+ new unit tests
- Split large, monolithic files (
misc1.c) into logical units (path.c,indent.c,garray.c,keymap.c, ...)
What's being worked on now
- Porting all IO to libuv
- Lots of refactoring
- A VimL => Lua transpiler
- Formatting with
clint.py
How do I get it?
There is a formula for OSX/homebrew, a PKGBUILD for Arch Linux, and detailed instructions for building on other OSes.
