Kalem is a fast, Rust-written text editor that supports multiple formats including Markdown, Org, LaTeX, CSV, and BibTeX with precise in-place editing that preserves original file content except for user changes. It offers both graphical and terminal interfaces, Vim emulation by default, and extensibility through Rust-based plugins for additional file types and features like PDF viewing, images, workbooks, and programming language support. Kalem targets users seeking an Emacs-inspired but modern multi-format editor under active development.
