File the tag code into tagline.zig and draw tags beside bodies
With tags reduced to Texts, what is left of them is the computed prefix, the
default and saved tails, entering and leaving a tag and the headers: that goes
to tagline.zig, as acme keeps the tag half of a window in wind.c. Tag and
header drawing moves next to body drawing in body_layer.zig, and the tag hit
helpers go to tag_layer.zig with the Hit they read, where sameCell now also
tells the lines of a taller tag apart. The docs describe the tag as a Text.

The main groups are `f` files, `h` docs, `c` columns, `t` toggles/effects, `a` panel animations, `s` session, `j` jumps, `l` language, and `w` directional focus; `SPC ?` lists every path and `<prefix> ?` lists one group in `+Help`. The pending path appears on the active pane's transient body/message row. Esc or an unmapped key abandons it. Paths, Help rows, and dispatch are all generated from the builtin registry at comptime; the leader applies only to a BODY in normal mode because tags and tty programs own their input | pardes-specific; helix spends Space on pickers/LSP (section C), while pardes uses acme-style executable words | | `SPC y` `SPC Y` `SPC p` `SPC P` `SPC R` | helix's clipboard menu on helix's own letters: yank the selection to the system clipboard (`ClipYank`) or the PRIMARY selection alone (`ClipYankMain`), paste the system clipboard after (`ClipPaste`) / before (`ClipPasteBefore`) the selection, replace the selection with it (`ClipReplace`) | the ONLY five words in pardes that touch the desktop's clipboard — `y`/`d`/`c`/`p`/`P`/`R` and the acme cut/paste chords are the internal register alone. Builtins rather than bare chords because a leader path names a builtin: they land in Help's index and are executable words like every other verb. One divergence: pardes keeps a single register VALUE where helix keeps one per range, so `SPC y` at N cursors joins them with newlines (`Pardes.setYank`, the divergence `msel-yank-paste` already waives). On a tty the write is OSC 52 out and the READ is OSC 52 back, which many terminals refuse or gate — so `SPC y` works there and `SPC p` can be a no-op | out of corpus | | a paste from the OUTER terminal | one `Event.paste`, spliced in at the cursor | the tty shell enables bracketed paste and coalesces `paste_start`..`paste_end` into a single event; before that the bytes arrived as individual key presses and normal mode RAN them, which is how a pasted `d` deleted a line. The bytes deliberately never enter the yank register — clipboard and default register are separate stores in both directions | pardes-specific | -| `/` (any pane) | pardes' own plain-substring search into a `+Search` output buffer: the tag takes the pattern, Enter fills the buffer, and its rows are ordinary look targets. Enter also GOES to the first row — the buffer is focused and then the step `n` is and the look Enter is run in it (`Pardes.lookFirstHit`), so `/foo` lands on the first hit with the matched span selected. A pattern that matched nothing opens its empty buffer and moves nothing | KEEP, do not touch; not in the corpus (helix `/` is regex search). Find and Grep answer with OTHER files and deliberately do NOT jump. The stepping half is the next row | pardes-specific | +| `/` (any pane) | pardes' own plain-substring search into a `+Search` output buffer: the pattern is typed on a line of its own on the pane's notice band, Enter fills the buffer, and its rows are ordinary look targets. Enter also GOES to the first row — the buffer is focused and then the step `n` is and the look Enter is run in it (`Pardes.lookFirstHit`), so `/foo` lands on the first hit with the matched span selected. A pattern that matched nothing opens its empty buffer and moves nothing | KEEP, do not touch; not in the corpus (helix `/` is regex search). Find and Grep answer with OTHER files and deliberately do NOT jump. The stepping half is the next row | pardes-specific | | `n` / `N` (any pane) | MOTION, not a jump: move the SELECTION to the next / previous look-able text and open NOTHING. Enter — the look chord — on what it leaves selected is what opens it | KEEP, do not touch; not in the corpus (helix's `n`/`N` walk regex search hits). What a step selects is the pane's GRAIN (`output_pane.Grain`, read in `Pardes.lookSpanIn`): in FREE TEXT — a terminal, a file, a PDF, a prose answer buffer — the largest whitespace-delimited run `look.resolve` can act on (`look.lookableSpan`, wrapper punctuation peeled off both ends), several to a line; in a RESULTS BUFFER one stop per ROW, the largest run its head resolves as (`look.lookableLineSpan`), because a row there IS one location and the words after it are the match rather than a second place to go; in a COMMAND list the whole line. The walk is a RING across PANES: every pane that has performed a Look, most recent first (`Pardes.look_src`), then the output buffers that have not, newest first, and only when both are empty the active pane. Exhausting a pane enters the next at its first (forward) / last (backward) span and the end wraps to the start, so `N` is the exact inverse of `n`. What it lands on becomes an EXPLICIT `vsel` with the cursor on its FIRST column, in the pane the walk focuses. ONE motion in every pane kind and every buffer kind — a PDF steps the `+Search` buffer its own search filled, `n` to select the row and Enter to jump. The single thing a buffer may change is that grain, and it changes it by BEING a kind of buffer rather than by a branch: `output_pane.Traits.steps` (a list of locations) makes a step take one row at a time, and `Traits.commands` makes it take the WHOLE LINE, because a command list (`ThemeSel`/`FontSel`) holds words to run and there is no path inside `Theme gruvbox` to pick out. Tab on what `n` selected wears the theme, which is the same middle click on the row is. `]d`/`[d` are helix's diagnostic motions, a different binding, and they do still jump to each diagnostic (`docs/lsp.md`) | pardes-specific | | insert: printable text | file: real edit; terminal: typed run splice | | helix-verified (file) | | insert: `Enter` | newline; keeps the current full indent levels and adds one 4-space logical tab when the text before the cursor ends in `(`, `[`, `{`, or `)` (including `})`) | plain lines match `insert_newline`; delimiter heuristic is pardes-specific | helix-verified (plain) / pardes-specific (delimiter) | |
