** Features

• Emacs-like editing: ZEM uses [[https://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/emacsy][Emacsy]] to provide an Emacsy feel (keymaps, minibuffer with completion, major & minor modes, etc.). Default key bindings are the same as vanilla Emacs (e.g. ~C-x C-f~ for ~find-file~). For the complete list of supported commands, use ~M-x TAB~.
• Fully hackable and extensible with [[https://www.gnu.org/software/guile/][GNU Guile]]
• [[https://github.com/tree-sitter/tree-sitter][Tree-sitter]] based syntax highlighting (currently only C++ is supported)
