Feb 1, 2026February 2026 — zed: Delivered key UX and stability enhancements in the zed repo. Focused on visual consistency, interaction quality, and keyboard-driven workflow improvements. These changes reduce user friction, increase reliability, and support productive editing and collaboration workflows. Highlights: - Cursor stretching bug in terminal visuals fixed by basing cursor width on cell width, improving visual consistency across terminal renderings and preventing misalignment. - Markdown mention links rendering from pasted text implemented to parse and render mention links, enhancing pasted-text interactions and reducing manual edits. - Escape key binding added to cancel/ dismiss actions in auto_height mode for JetBrains keymap, improving quick dismissal of inline assists and overall UX for JetBrains users. Impact: - Stability and reliability of terminal visuals improved across environments. - User interaction with pasted content and inline assists streamlined, reducing workflow friction. - Alignment with product goals for editor polish and keyboard-centric workflows. Notes: - All changes are tied to the February 2026 work in zed (zed-industries/zed) with corresponding commits and release notes.
