Lazy Hacker Editor

Fake code editor that writes real code (hopefully yours, probably from someone else) no matter which key you stroke.

Because nothing beats the eficiency of writing code already written.

    -h, --help
            Prints help information

    -l, --highlight
            Highlight some common code characters
