modal CLI text editor Helix

Helix (hx) is a text editor with a modal user interface. It aims to be more efficient than Vim and Neovim, by implementing select modern features in the core and omitting a plugin system.

Features:

 * Vim-like modal editing
 * Multiple selections (inspired by Kakoune)
 * Built-in language server support (LSP)
 * Smart, incremental syntax highlighting and code editing
   (via tree-sitter)
