+.Sh NAME
+.Nm Inability
+.Nd losing the ability to create
+.
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+For often weeks, sometimes months at a time,
+I lose the ability to write new code.
+I can still make fixes
+and little cleanups
+in my existing projects,
+but if I try to work on something new,
+nothing happens.
+I can't get anything done.
+.
+.Pp
+I think it's now been
+over 3 months
+since I've created anything.
+I don't know what to do about it.
+In the past I've eventually
+regained the ability to code,
+but it's unclear to me how or why.
+I also don't know what
+I should be doing instead.
+Writing code is the only hobby
+I've ever really developed,
+so without it I basically
+don't do anything.
+.
+.Pp
+Does this happen to anyone else?
+How do you cope?

This new implementation works on an instance of a struct and does not interact with the rest of catgirl, making it possible to copy into another project. Unlike existing line editing libraries, this one is entirely abstract and can be rendered externally. My goal with this library is to be able to implement vi mode. Since it operates on struct instances rather than globals, it might also be possible to give catgirl separate line editing buffers for each window, which would be a nice UX improvement. 2022-02-18Simplify cursor positioning in inputJune McEnroe Do some extra work by adding the portion before the cursor to the input window twice, but simplify the interaction with the split point. This fixes the awkward behaviour when moving the cursor across colour codes where the code would be partially interpreted up to the cursor. 2022-02-18Fix M-f orderingJune McEnroe 2022-02-12Move sandman build to scripts/MakefileJune McEnroe 2022-02-12Use compat_readpassphrase.c on LinuxJune McEnroe 2022-02-12Copy RPP defines from oconfigureJune McEnroe
