  • See it in action.
• Added autoclosing of ( and ' in Lua.

Vim

• Added option use_smartcase_find.
• Added subword motions.
• Added [x and ]x as default keybindings to select larger and smaller syntax nodes respectively.

Collaboration

• Added autocompletion for emojis in chat when typing emoji shortcodes (#7299).
• Added support for automatically replacing emoji shortcodes in chat (e.g. typing ":wave:" will be converted to "👋").
• Reworked date time formatting in the chat and the notification panel.
• Added hover style to notifications and hovering tooltip on timestamps.
• Improved sign in latency by 40ms.

General

• Added editor::RevertSelectedHunks (cmd-alt-z by default) for reverting git hunks from the editor.
• Added support for opening files on the zed protocol open zed://file/Users/example/Desktop/a.txt (#8482).
• Added -n/--new and -a/--add to the zed CLI. When neither is specified, if you open a directory you get a new workspace, otherwise files are added to your existing workspace. With --new files are always opened in a new workspace, with --add directories are always added to an existing workspace. (#9076, #4861, #5370).
• Added a double_click_in_multibuffer setting. When select is used, the multi-buffer behaves the same as a singleton buffer, when open is used, the excerpt is opened in a new tab (same as editor: open excerpts) (#5275).
• Added support for overriding the current theme's syntax font styles and weights in settings (#9121).
• Added support to click on LineColumn on StatusBar to open the go to line modal.

• Added strikethrough to deprecated methods in completions menu (#8390).
  • Check out the before and after.
• Added ZED_SELECTED_TEXT task variable which contains contents of selection.
• Added message to activity indicator if last attempt to format a buffer failed. Message will get reset when next formatting succeeds. Clicking on message opens log with more information. (#8072 and #9061).
• Added syntax highlighting to code blocks in markdown preview.
• Improved cmd-click navigation around the editor: now, if cmd-click did not find a reference to go to, Zed calls FindAllReferences (#5351).
• Improved FindAllReferences action by not allowing concurrent requests for the same multi buffer source (#9242).
• Improved performance when loading large files.
• Improved the zed command to not create files until you save them in the editor (#7400).

  • Check out the before and after.
• Improved task modal UX with long bash-like commands.
