Mosham is a Kakoune client with advanced text shaping capabilities.
I wrote it because I wanted to write text in Malayalam but no terminal does
(or feasibly could) support a highly proportional and ligated script like it.
Mosham uses `rustybuzz`(A full port of harfbuzz to Rust) so it can shape
pretty much anything.
## Usage
Currently it is in a very very early stage and only for personal use.
Modify src/render.rs to change the default fonts or to change the font size.
In the future, a config file will be added.
Make sure to build in release mode.
## Limitations
Kakoune always operates in terms of codepoints.  This means that j and k
will always be unpredictable in a proportional font, unless you use some
kind of plugin to modify the behaviour on the side of Kakoune.
