nam (nanoArgMode)
A fully-featured macro system for the nano editor, powered by Luajit.
Basic Usage
nano -s ./nam YOURFILESupply the location of namto the- sflag, and open your file / s like normal. (Or an empty buffer.)
Then, write the macro call you want directly into the buffer, on it's own line:
!: spellAnd then call the spellchecker with^ Tor whatever non-default binding you've added.
Limitations
The macro system can only effect the open buffer, it can't modify nano's default behaviors. It cannot move the active cursor.
This turns it into a text-manipulation system, rather than a self-modifying system like you might find in vim and emacs.
It is still reasonably powerful.

Metadata
Metadata can be utilied by macros.
It can be set by placing a file called. Namrcin the Current Working Directory, git repository root, and~ / .namrc
.
This file represents the contents of a Lua key-value table.
e.g.
wat="Hello?",is equivalent to:
return {wat="Hello?",}Macros
Place a file named
. Nam
in the Current Working Directory or root of a git repository (for just this project), or at~ / .nam / .nam(to apply everywhere).
This file is expected to:

Return a table that contains two further tables:
A table called 'file' for file-scoped macros

- Source is a string.

Builtin Macros
spell
The spell macro, calls a file with either 'aspell -c' or a string set in .namrc to the key 'spellcheck'.
build
The build macro looks for the meta key 'build'. It calls it with any supplied arguments, and captures the output.
Upon completion, the output is opened in a new nano instance, which can be closed to resume processing.
lint
The lint macro looks for the meta key 'lint'. It calls it with any supplied arguments, and captures the output.
Upon completion, the output is opened in a new nano instance, which can be closed to resume processing.
replace
The replace macro takes two arguments: The first is a pattern to supply to Luajit's gsub, and the second is the replacement.
