List of feature requests or bug reports for Chime

Moved into comments

...To support emoji and screenshots.

• Sometimes gofmt gets stuck and just won't format. I have to close the tab and re-open the file and then it works. 🪲
• Would be nice to have "developer mode" with debug output? Just to help with bug reports.
• Would be nice to have some sort of more global indicator as to when gopls has "loaded" and is "ready" and so on. In VSCode generally you see certain things underline and files in the listing change color. I know those aren't meant to be indicators of gopls loading, they're indicators of things that gopls is doing (linting or whatever) but having an equivalent in Chime would be handy.
• Maybe start gopls in the background on startup so Chime is ready to use faster when you do open it? 😄
• Typing . in a string shouldn't trigger auto-complete. 🪲
• Let's say I have a struct with a field of type time.Time. When I'm filling out a struct literal, if I have a function that produces a time.Time, autocomplete will put the function into the field but not actually spell it out with arguments and return values and all that. 🪲
• Show hidden files & folders in the left pane (greyed out). 🚀

• When auto-completing a function that has an argument that is itself a function, the "inner" function doesn't need to have its params be placeholders.
• Just relaunched Chime after a crash and seems like the loader is borked: 🪲
  

Version 1.1.7!

This one's great: pasting and undo/redo no longer trigger completions

Version 1.1.8!

(Seems like I had already downloaded v1.1.8 earlier?)

• Great on the type-through for " and '. Marked this as fixed!
• I just reworked my homegrown Monokai theme to be dark instead of light, noticed that (like all operators) <- isn't a different color, which kinda makes it blend in with surrounding text. Will append this to my list up above.
• Excellent on the indentation when I hit Tab and all that. Seems a lot more robust. Marked as fixed!
• Page Up/Page Down should move the cursor, not just the viewport.
• Hitting Save should close autocomplete.
• I can't seem to close Find In Project! Hitting the X does nothing. 🪲
• Autocompletion feels more precise or crisp somehow.
• Autocomplete options don't always sort in the most sensical fashion. Sometimes I'm typing the beginning of something, and it's in the list, but something that is not prefix-matching sorts to the top. 🪲
• When I'm typing fast and try to choose an autocomplete, sometimes hitting "Enter" inserts a literal enter character instead of selecting the autocomplete. 🪲
• Whenever the terminal command comes out, it should be chm because chime is hard to type. 🚀
• Quotes shouldn't double-up if you have an unmatched one earlier on the line. For example, if you have "the quick brown fox | and you hit " you should get "the quick brown fox "|. Currently Chime produces "the quick brown fox "|" 🪲
• May have mentioned this earlier, but delimiters if you type an opening delimiter to the left of existing text, it shouldn't double-up. Meaning if you have alpha |beta and you type " it should produce alpha "|beta. Right now chime produces alpha "|"beta. 🪲
• Sometimes when I hit Save and it goes to format, it lags--I can still move my cursor around with the arrow keys, but the Edited status up top doesn't go away for a few seconds, then it sort of "jumps" (pointer rainbow-balls for a split second, cursor slows and then fast-forwards briefly) and saves. 🪲
• Weird line number bug; closing & reopening the file fixed it: ( 🪲 )

• When you have a dark theme, Chime starts up with the light theme, and then changes to dark once you open a file. 🪲
• Autocomplete seems to trigger at the start of a line, and upon . and possibly other special characters, but often/always not when I'm in the middle of a line of text. 🪲
• Example of incorrect sorting from auto-complete: I typed fals and hit enter, and it auto-completed to require.False instead of just plain false.

I missed this release.

This is cool.
