Crate redox_core 

Core editor primitives.

This crate provides a rope-based text buffer (via ropey) and small, focused navigation utilities suitable for implementing a Vim-like editor.

Notes on indexing

• ropey::Rope is UTF-8 text stored as a rope.
• Most editing operations are most naturally expressed in char indices (usize counts of Unicode scalar values), because ropey exposes many APIs in terms of char offsets.
• The UI may need byte indices for interoperability with external data, but those are not used as the primary index type in this crate.
