Was just trying it out earlier this week. Or at least wanted to, after hearing all the good opinins about it over the net. Unfortunately using xmonad it simply refuses to display in certain positions. When I found a position where the interface was displayed, there was still no tooltip on the icons, which makes recognizing their function non-trivial. Anyway, after I spent 8 minutes trying to find a place to set custom include folder unsuccessfully for my project, I gave up, and went back to QT creator.

Will try again next year.

Does anyone have insight into how Lapce and Zed compare to each other? I.e. what are the differences in project goals, current capabilities and roadmap? Thanks!

One thing I know of is that zed'a scope is a bit wider and includes some collaborative tools and enhancements. Don't know the exact details though.

I have my CapsLock key remapped to Escape with `setxbkmap` and yet it's not recognized in the modal editing mode (I have to actually press Escape) - anyone else experiencing that?

Just installed this on windows 10. First time I tried to open it the window hung for 3 minutes until I killed it. The second time, I couldn't reposition the window by clicking and dragging. Third time I loaded it, it hung again.

It's an exciting product pitch but isn't working for me. I see now that there's a "pre-alpha stage" disclaimer on the download page and wish that were in larger font.
