Hello,
Below patch to yesterday version of forms.vim .
Rather proof of concept than full solution but looks much nicer:
Features:
- highlight header of form in Comment
- highlight labels of fields as Questions
- hightlight hotkeys as Statements
Limitations:
- Buttons are not supported
Problems with current version of forms:
- arrows doesn't work in terminal. They are completely messing things
eg. destroy knowledge about default value.
- when there is more than one the same character as hotkey repeating
hotkey doesn't cycle between them. It stucks with last entry with that
hotkey
