0.6.0

This release introduces Vim mode to the Web/App editor, emulating key features of Vim such as motions, operators, visual modes, macro support, incremental highlighted search, search and replace, jump lists, sort, marks, cross-buffer yank/paste, and expected commands for writing, quitting, and adjusting editor settings. It also supports link insertion, link following, and passthrough for Notesium's global and note-tab keybindings.

A StatusBar has been added, displaying the focus state (or Vim mode), editor mode, editor settings, note link counts, and note actions. Additionally, a new Editor sub-section has been introduced in Settings.

To further enhance keyboard usage, Tab can be used to gain editor focus, and C-s to save the active note even when the editor is not focused.

This version includes backwards incompatible changes.

Fixed:

• Links: Handle file-not-found gracefully instead of hard-fail.
• Web/App: Note - focus activeFilename editor on Tab.

Added:
