Editor predeterminado para todos los usuarios del mi sistema GNU/Linux... y al que no le guste, que se joda 😆
@prunelier : à te lire, je me rendsr compte que je justifie mon apprentissage d ’#ergol et de #vim sous des prétexte de confort et de productivité mais, en effet, l’apprentissage en lui-même est un réel plaisir !
Got woken up at 6:00 today by a neighbours alarm, so here's my Weekly Brain Dump nice and early!
- Released a gem update after 7 years
- Started building an expense tracker
- Checked out kiwi.nvim for my wiki needs
- Published my first Taylor Monthly

I am so grateful for all the opensource software that good people gave for free. Where would I be without a vim/nvim in a tmux ? It's just overwhelming to think about that. So to everyone giving time and knowledge to others, thank you so much.
New Text Editor Idea: Dvorim (Dvorak + Neovim).
Vi (also Vim and Neovim) are powerful modal editors. But they're designed around QWERTY. So if you wanted to change to Dvorak, then the navigation keys hjkl are no longer convenient. The “home row" keys get moved. The little changes prevent switching to Dvorak
Dvorim would be an interesting editor. We have the 50 years of experience since Vi was created to improve the modal editing experience with a better keyboard layout

Do I know #emacs evil-mode or #vim users who use home row modifiers or otherwise don't use modifier keys on their keyboard?
I wonder how I should remap some things. Emacs's M-x for example was much nicer to type as the sequence ESC x -- before ESC was taken over by the vim key bindings for good reason.
Not sure about leader key, because for some Control-based shortcuts I would still need to hold the control home row key and would prefer not to. So who gets to be the leader key then :)
@iamreinder @hyuchia so true. I've used #vim for over 20 years now. I've tried a couple of times to test drive other editors and always come back to Vim (now #neovim)
The editor with vim mode that most surprised me is #zed the vim mode commands cover a broad range, more than I expected.

The veep plugin lets you pipe any visually selected content to an external command. This can be an existing external tool, or a script that you write for your own needs: https://github.com/robenkleene/veep.vim
Did you hear that Notepad++ has apparantly been comprimized by state sponsored hackers?
So that's great.
I have it on my work computer to edit my personal website. Guess I'm switching to Vim. Hopefully it's not compromised.
I'm lookin for a EU based store where I can get a #Vim Cheat sheet mug.
You know what would be amazing?
Some kind of OS-level overlay that would let you use vi movement and editing keys in any program.
I'm talking about going beyond something like having custom QMK keystrokes to use hjlk as the arrow keys (which is super neat, to be clear). I'm talking about a little pop-up that lets you enter something like A and it hits the End key for you, or Rapple^[ and it types 'apple[del][del][del][del][del]`
Am I the only one that thinks reaching for those special keys on the keyboard is a total drag? Especially on laptops? XD
