Symex - An Expressive Modal Way to Edit Code ¶

This manual is for Symex (version 2.0).

A quick movement out of the corner of your eye, but it’s gone as you turn to look. A rustle in the trees, or did you imagine it? A shadow passing overhead, and a blinding flash as you look up. Was that the Sun, or the gleam in the eye of Symex the Squirrel, as it soared above the treetops?

You’ll never know. The legendary Squirrel is said to possess startling agility and speed, capable of executing mind-bending maneuvers in the trees, traversing impossible distances in a single leap. So they say. Yet, no one has ever seen Symex. Some say that it is much too quick for our eyes to see. Others say that no one has seen Symex because, you fool (they say), Symex isn’t some squirrel out there — it’s the squirrel in you.
