The lime package defines the very soul of Lime. Some highlevel concepts follow. Lime is designed with the goal of having a clear frontend and lime separation to allow and hopefully simplify the creation of multiple frontend versions. The two most active frontends are at the time of writing this one for terminals based on termbox-go and a GUI application based on Qt's QML scripting language. There's also a Proof of Concept html frontend. The Editor singleton represents the most fundamental interface that frontends use to access the lime. It keeps a list of editor windows, handles input, detects file changes as well as communicate back to the frontend as needed. At any time there can be multiple windows of the editor open. Each Window can have a different layout, settings and status. The View class defines a "view" into a specific backing buffer. Multiple views can share the same backing buffer. For instance viewing the same buffer in split view, or viewing the buffer with one syntax definition in one view and another syntax definition in the other. It is very closely related to the view defined in the Model-view-controller paradigm, and contains settings pertaining to exactly how a buffer is shown to the user. The command interface defines actions to be executed either for the whole application, a specific window or a specific view. Key bindings define a sequence of key-presses, a Command and the command's arguments to be executed upon that sequence having been pressed. Key bindings can optionally have multiple contexts associated with it which allows the exact same key sequence to have different meaning depending on context. See http://godoc.org/github.com/jxo/lime#QueryContextCallback for details. Many of the components have their own key-value Settings object associated with it, but settings are also nested. In other words, if the settings key does not exist in the current object's settings, its parent's settings object is queried next which in turn will query its parent if its settings object didn't contain the key neither.
