 This is a fork of the `acme` text editor from the `plan9port` distribution. It combines the customizability of [lumar](https://github.com/lumar)/[sminez](https://github.com/sminez/plan9port)'s forks and [acme2k](https://github.com/karahobny/acme2k) with upstream fixes from [9fans](https://github.com/9fans/plan9port) and some custom work.
 
-Namely, when click-to-focus is enabled, the active window body or tag renders the tick (aka the text cursor) with the hilight color (`COLOR_<TAG|BODY>_HI`); otherwise the tick is rendered with the text color (`COLOR_<TAG|BODY>_TX`). This is all done with a fork of `libframe` which is included in the distribution and compiled into the program.
