The Gram Code Editor - 2026-09-04

I wish Gram had a way to just ad-hoc override the indentation style for an open buffer

would make drive-by changes so much easier, I'm currently looking at a file full of tab indents but Gram inserts 4 spaces when I hit tab because that's some default

Could .editorconfig support help?

no, that solves a different problem (and is already supported I think?)

if I just have a file which I want to quickly edit, maybe to propose a tiny fix to someone else's code, I just want to ad-hoc say "okay now use tabs for this buffer", I don't want to have to create a .editorconfig or modify an existing .editorconfig

Hello! I've heard about Gram through a friend and I tried the Flatpak version. I opened a Python project, but I see the following error at the bottom of the screen: ``` Language server basedpyright: Download disabled for language server 'basedpyright', check the configuration ``` What can I do?

I think because of this, I cannot navigate through function (with stuff like `gd` in Helix mode)

Either install basedpyright yourself, or go to the language server configuration screen and check “allow binary download” for basedpyright

thanks, it's working

Great!

This editor looks really nice. I had quickly tried zed a while back, but I stopped when they went full AI. I'm a Helix user, but Helix is not really an IDE, so I'm looking at alternatives that don't fry my brain :) Thanks for taking care of this project!
