  Plugin to customize the caret in the editor
  Thanks to @Guldoman for the initial example on Discord

  Features
    Change the Color and Opacity of the caret

  Customizing the Caret: (this can be changed from the .config/lite-xl/init.lua
  file or from the settings menu plugin)
    config.plugins.custom_caret.shape - Change the shape of the caret [string]
    style.caret - Change the rgba color of the caret [table]

  Example Config(in the .config/lite-xl/init.lua)
    style.caret = {0, 255, 255, 150}
    config.plugins.custom_caret.shape = "block"

    custom_color = true,
    caret_color = table.pack(table.unpack(style.caret))
}, config.plugins.custom_caret)

-- Reference to plugin config

-- Get real default caret color after everything is loaded up
