Vim has a lot of modes, probably more than you thought. Here's a diagram you could explore to maybe learn a new keymap or command: https://gist.github.com/kennypete/1fae2e48f5b0577f9b7b10712cec3212

Google Books Ngram Viewer is a lot of fun, but... Who the heck was using #Vim in 1800? And what's that uptick in #Emacs around 1880?

At least no one cared about #VSCode in the 19th century.

Edit: now I know more about old English.

ughhh, #Netrw is such a mess.

But it comes with every installation of #Vim and #Neovim, so as someone who enjoys minimalism and likes to keep the number of additional plugins to a minimum, I feel like I should learn to use it and integrate it into my workflow.

But I've just used :Rexplore on a dirty file with 'nohidden' and it simply replaced my file's contents with the directory listing 😬

Also, don't make the mistake of looking at its source, or visiting the maintainer's "website" …

Instead of simply failing, my #Vim will now ask to create parent directories, if they don't exist, before saving a file.

My #Vim is now a tiling window manager.

Hey #vim / #NeoVim gurus,

Is there any way to make the spelling checker ignore words with numbers in them?

Couldn't find a good answer online.

Curious about how many Vim/Neovim plugins you’re rocking? 🤔 Jump into your terminal, navigate to your Vim or Neovim configuration directory, and run this command: ls -alp | wc -l. I currently have 41 plugins, but I’m aiming to slim down to 30-35. How about you? Share your plugin count below! #Vim #Neovim #Plugins”

Fijn onderwerp voor #Linux übernerds om zich eens lekker af te kunnen zetten tegen de sukkelaartjes die niet vloeiend zijn in VIM. Want als je geen liefhebber bent van #VIM (een soort editor uit het stenen tijdperk) dan ben je af (zie comments onder het onderwerp).
Nano is prima bruikbaar voor de meeste klusjes aan de CLI, laat ze verder maar lekker kletsen.

#vim #neovim users: do you use the editor for project-wide find and replace or just regular shell?

What do you think folks, should I update https://vimebook.com to #neovim only or should I stick to #vim and create separate content for #neovim?

vjousse, 10 days ago to vim French

I'm about to update my book on #vim but as I am now mostly using #neovim, I'm a little bit outdated about #vim plugin management. What would you recommend instead of pathogen (for vim, not for neovim)?

People often talk about Emacs vs Vim. Every developer I’ve met uses Vim. Occasionally, some of the vim users will say they have previously emacs, but switched to vim.

So where are all the people who are currently using Emacs?

I’m not trolling or looking for an argument. I legit want to know!

People often ask me what makes me fast in #Vim 🏃

A while ago I made a video showing my 80/20, including Vim's leader key, FZF, jedi-vim, more undo history, disallowing saving upon syntax errors, and more. 💪

If I can't convince you to use VS Code, but you want to try #Vim and have found it intimidating, my friend Dusty Phillips has a free book he has started to write on #LazyVim at https://lazyvim-ambitious-devs.phillips.codes/ (blog post about the book at https://dusty.phillips.codes/2024/04/25/lazyvim-for-ambitious-developers/).

"I hope you don’t mind me asking but what keeps you coming back to #Emacs? I am currently wondering whether to look at #Neovim again - it does seem to be faster and with a strong community around it."

Some editors seem to randomly insert non-breaking spaces. This can be a pain. In #vim replace them with normal spaces like so:

:%s/<Ctrl-V>u00a0/ /g

where u00a0 is the utf-8 sequence for a non-breaking space.

jonyoder, 18 days ago to vim

I've been dinking around with #vim a bit lately. Looked some of the help info and I have a serious question: why are some of the keyboard shortcuts so arbitrary?

Ctrl+] to follow a link but Ctrl-T to go back? I can't see the logic. Is there any to this?
