# Gkilo

An simple terminal based editor written in go!

Inspired by [Kilo Editor](https://github.com/antirez/kilo)

## INSTRUCTIONS

- After that you can just run `gkilo` or `gkilo {filename}` to open and edit your file!

## COMMANDS

In the config file `fg` stands for `foreground` and `bg` for `background`
