It seems that closures are not interacting well with the global nature
of operatorfunc's. That is just a hunch, and this feels like a hack, but
it fixes the issue.

+manipulation experience in NeoVim, focusing on text-manipulation utilities.
+This includes a `Range` utility, allowing you to work efficiently with text
+selections based on various conditions, as well as a declarative `Render`-er,
+making coding and editing more intuitive and productive.

It is meant to be used by plugin authors, to make their lives easier based on the variety of utilities I found I needed while growing my NeoVim config.

 ## Features
 
-- **Rendering System**: a utility that can declaratively render NeoVim-specific hyperscript into a buffer, supporting creating/managing extmarks, highlights, and key-event handling (requires NeoVim >0.11)
-- **Signals**: a simple dependency tracking system that pairs well with the rendering utilities for creating reactive/interactive UIs in NeoVim.
-- **Range Utility**: Get context-aware selections with ease. Replace regions with new text. Think of it as a programmatic way to work with visual selections (or regions of text).

 <b>This has changed in v2</b>. After much thought, I realized that:
 
-1. The 0-based indexing in NeoVim is prevelant in the `:api`, which is designed to be exposed to many languages. As such, it makes sense for this interface to use 0-based indexing. However, many internal Vim functions use 1-based indexing.
-2. This is a Lua library (surprise, surprise, duh) - the idioms of the language should take precedence over my preference
-3. There were subtle bugs in the code where indices weren't being normalized to 0-based, anyways. Somehow it worked most of the time.
