✨ formiko-vim — the manual page, but make it cute ✨

okay bestie, so this is a General Commands Manual page for formiko-vim(1) — literally the glow-up version of a manpage and I'm obsessed 💖

It's a reStructuredText and MarkDown editor with a live preview, and the whole thing is giving main character energy. Drop in, write, watch it render. No cap.

🦋 NAME 🦋

formiko-vim — a reStructuredText and MarkDown editor and live previewer 🌈

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

formiko-vim [options] [FILE]

---

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

So like, Formiko is a reStructuredText and MarkDown editor and live previewer — yes, both, it's an icon, it does it all ✨

It's written in Python with Gtk3 and Webkit2. For the parsing situation, it uses Docutils and the recommonmark Common Mark parser. Slay.

And this particular version? It uses Vim as the editor 😌 iykyk.

heads up bestie 💀 at this moment, this works only on the X11 graphics backend, because GtkSockets not work on Wayland yet. fr fr. so if you're on Wayland, that's a you problem (for now) 🫶

---

✨ OPTIONS ✨

• -h, --help — shows the help options. classic. the "what do I even do here" button 🙈
• FILE — specifies the file to open when formiko starts. and if you don't give it one? it loads a blank file with an "Untitled Document" label, in ReStructuredText format. blank canvas era 💜

---

🌸 FILES 🌸

• ~/.config/formiko.ini — your personal configuration file 💖 Formiko stores your options here automatically whenever you make a change. it just... does it. obsessed.
• ~/.cache/formiko/window.ini — your personal cache file. Formiko keeps values in here about window size and paned panels. it remembers how you like your vibes 🪟✨
• ~/.cache/formiko/WebKitCache — this is your WebKit preview cache. that's the whole thing, that's the file 🧚
