🚀 Zed v0.179 is out! In today's release, we've introduced a new display mode for Edit Prediction called subtle, which makes predicted text hidden by default and only visible when you're holding a modifier key. Check the blog post for more details: zed.dev/blog/out-of-...

Zed now has an `editor: show word completions` action, which shows a popover containing autocompletions for words discovered in the current document.

Zed now supports reading from anonymous file descriptors on macOS and Linux. For instance, you can now run `ls | zed -`.

Also in Zed v0.179: - Added the ability to filter the list of extensions by category. - Tweaks and improvements to Git integration. - Improved Multibuffer design and interaction with `Expand Excerpt Down` action. - Improved performance when using the scroll wheel and some other mouse interactions.

v0.179 cont. - Improved support for extended keyboards on Mac (F20-F35). - Improved save dialogues for new files to default to the directory you're currently working in instead of the project root. - Vim: Added global marks `'[A-Z]`.

v0.179 cont. - Vim: Added persistence for global (and local) marks. When re-opening the same workspace, your previous marks will be available. - Vim: Added sentence marks `'(` and `')`.
