The Gram Code Editor - 2026-08-10

    Hi, Gram seems very promising (especialy with all the breaking updates zed has) – one thing I miss is reload on file change, would this be possible to add?

    Yeah this is something I really want to improve. It _should_ detect changes to files and reload, but the UI is really primitive so it’s not obvious when it happens or what version of the file is kept and so on.. I want to change it to something like neovim where it detects if a file has changed on disk AND in the editor and gives you the diff and a choice of what to do, instead of trying to be clever

    in many ways zed/gram is still a very basic editor, lots of things left to sort out

    That sounds elegant re. reload, would very much like to see that (but also understand that development is a lot of work in general).

    Hi everyone. Before I put work into it, what is the current policy on pulling in features added to zed after the fork? Thinking of preparing a PR for go-to-definition/reference etc. in a popup picker window instead of in a multibuffer. Because thats the main missing feature which keeps tripping me up when using this lovely project.
