#vim

@joe@f.duriansoftware.com In some shells it is easier and more comfortable out of the box: in my case it's ZSH, which provides editing of a multi-line input in two modes, either Emacs or Vi. I choose Vi and thus I have a shell that behaves similar to that editor - on Esc pressed it goes into "normal Vi"-like mode and one might to move around and more. Additionally, I configured it to invoke an $EDITOR (which is some Vi-like one in my case) on double Esc, so it opens the editor with the text from the shell in a buffer. #ZSH #Vim

The #NetBSD documentation on vi is pretty good. You could learn it from this. https://www.netbsd.org/docs/guide/en/chap-edit.html#chap-edit-configuring-vi-exrc It's not full Vim, though the #vi in the BSDs is still a great editor. I tend to go for full #Vim, but I do switch between the two.

@rl_dane@polymaths.social Another round of #vimovember ? https://codeberg.org/hyde/vimovember Or maybe we should rename it to #noVimber#vim #vi #terminals #foss@amin@polymaths.social @eclecticpassions@fosstodon.org @nantucketlit@mastodon.social @birming@social.lol

Vim Classic https://lobste.rs/s/cxwpil #editors #vim https://vim-classic.org/

While experimenting alternatives for #vim, I stumbled upon #EVi (https://codeberg.org/evi-editor/evi) a hard-fork of Vim v9.1.0 (Jan 2024) before AI was used in the project. It looks like vim-static but based on the 9.x branch, which allows some of my stupid customizations (that 8.x does not support). It compiles and runs on #OpenBSD. Currently running make test... Any thoughts on this fork?

Advanced Programming in the #UNIX Environment Week 5: The Editor In this video lecture, we look at the required feature for a full-fledged programmer's editor and illustrate some of the core functionality by example of #vim. This includes basic motion commands, setting and moving to markers, using folds, and the integration with build tools, such as the compiler, debugger, and 'make', all of which we will cover in the next videos.

Sigh at ensloppification of random software you use. Soon you discover that #Vim maintainers consider it a good idea to use black text on blue background now. In dark theme.

#NetBSD could use a #librewolf or #ungoogled-chromium package; as well as #evi / #vim-classic

I think it's unfair to compare vi(m) and emacs, they're not built for the same purposes. #emacs is a full productivity suite with addons and parts for every imaginable thing in the universe. it's the CLI version of an 'everything app', it'll just as happily help you with spreadsheets or email or your calendar or align the planets in whatever specific configuration as part of your dark voodoo magic incantation workflows or whatever. and #vim and #nano are also not the same, for the same reasons

My blog is a compiled artifact, not a rented form. #Indexcards → #Logseq → #Typst → static HTML → #Surge, deployed in seconds. Zero npm bloat, zero subscription, zero platform I don't control. Every post starts on paper before it ever touches a keyboard. That's not aesthetic, that's architecture. And honestly? I feel bad for Substack writers now. They picked an overrated web-editor over understanding how their own words get published. That's not a tech choice, that's an intellectual shortcut. You can't claim to be a serious writer while being incurious about the machine that delivers your writing. Learn your stack. Own your words. https://paperstackpro.surge.sh/ #StaticSite #SelfHosted #Typst #Vim #PKM

I have like zero respect left for developers who use LLMs to write or maintain their software. I don't even care for the reasons why they use this unethical piece of... technology. Technology trained on data they don't own. Technology owned and shaped by fascists. Technology that sends its crawlers around the globe to suck every bit they can find to dump their models into big f***ing corp data centers. Data centers that are polluting the air with their big ass gas plants. But hey! "Leave ethics aside". "That's how software development works today!". I'm so sick of this and about everyone supporting this industry. If you feel targeted, you are welcome. I have zero respect for you or your software garbage. I just wish you the worst. #ai #llm #floss #linux #vim #gohugo #foss #fckai
