## 项目历史与用法

neatvi is Ali Gholami Rudi's small ex/vi clone for editing UTF-8 text, with particular emphasis on bidirectional text. Its README says it supports syntax highlighting, multiple windows, right-to-left languages, and keymaps.

### 项目历史

The upstream repo.or.cz summary describes neatvi as a small ex/vi editor and shows active maintenance through June 2026. The GitHub mirror/API reports the GitHub repository was created on May 28, 2015.

The project is deliberately small but not toy-like: its README documents EXINIT startup commands, `$HOME/.neatvi`, syntax color commands, keymaps, right-to-left text direction options, Arabic/Farsi shaping, buffer/window commands, tags support, and quick-access commands.

### 采用历史

neatvi's adoption is niche and enthusiast-driven. It appears in Homebrew and Alpine, and the GitHub mirror showed 394 stars and 38 forks on July 1, 2026. Homebrew Formulae listed stable version 19 and 32 installs in its 365-day analytics window.

Its distinguishing adoption hook is not broad editor popularity but a rare combination: vi/ex familiarity, compact C code, UTF-8, and bidirectional/right-to-left editing support.

### 使用方式

Package nerds install neatvi when they want a minimal vi-like editor with Unicode and right-to-left behavior, or when they want a small C editor they can read and patch. Configuration is done through EXINIT, `$HOME/.neatvi`, and in some cases source-level changes to `conf.h` for syntax highlighting and text direction patterns.

The README also notes terminal-specific behavior for VTE-based terminals and exposes options for disabling shaping, character reordering, or highlighting when performance matters.

### 为什么软件包爱好者会关心

neatvi is useful enrichment material because it is not merely another vi clone. Its package identity is tied to bidirectional UTF-8 editing, small-source maintainability, and ex-scriptable configuration.
