Do you use vim as your default text editor? If you do not, have you ever been in a situation you could do nothing but use vim?
VI and vim have been my editors of choice for thirty plus years at this point. I also use set -o vi in bash.
Yes I love using neovim it feels better having an editor, agent, and cli in separate terminal tabs instead of having one program for all three
Sorry my hands are busy
`C - x 2’
C -x C-f ~/.emacs.d/init.elC-x C-sFuck no. There are better things to invest your brain power in.
Yes, I’ve used it as my main editor for years now.
I have a vim setup with plenty of plugins that honestly, I don’t know if I need anymore.
No, and no. Sorry.
I’ve been using Vim for 20 years.
I only opened it once and I haven’t been able to close it yet
I’m not sure at what point in the last 20 years they put the instructions in the vim, but it gives you clear instructions on what to do if it thinks you’re trying to escape from vim jail.
It’s called a power button.
iyes :wq
Been there, done that: forgetting to press ESC
I like to press"Control-c" instead of ESC. It is more convenient to type and mostly does the same thing.
I pressed it. Just pressed it again. Turns out it doesn’t show up on Lemmy. Lol
Hell no
Yes
I see the appeal of using something like NeoVim or Helix, but I don’t even leverage all of the features regular Vim has, and it is pre installed on all the systems and equipment I use. It’s plenty powerful for what I need, and now that I’m getting the keystrokes down it’s awesome
vim all day
They will take it from my cold dead hands
Save the Ugandan children
Yes. I use vim as much as possible. When I don’t use vim, I use its keybindings in Firefox, IntelliJ, VSCode and even in eMacs (spacemacs with evil mode).
Nano gang
Nano gang gang all the other editors wish they were as simply cool as us. 😎
Neovim is my goto editor for terminals. Yes.
:wq
Yes, won’t quit, can’t quit, seriously, help.
