2.0 Update!
This update allows vgedit to handle much larger files, adds line number and line-wrapping cursor fixes, usb keyboard support, undo/redo support, find in page, and other features/bugfixes.
This is a basic text editor for the Switch. It was designed to be controlled with either the touch screen or a controller.
Controls:
Pressing Plus will save the file, Minus will close it. Hitting A brings up the keyboard and B will be either delete or backspace depending on which mode you are in (when keyboard is up (insert mode), it's backspace, in the overview mode it's delete.
Other controls / functionality is listed on the screen while in editing view. Pressing L will bring up a find dialog, and ZL/ZR cycle through undo history.
