A super fast, advanced modal editor/IDE, written in #rust and with #vim keybindings. How does that sound?

Some years ago, I forked the #helix editor and started adding some VIM keybindings to it. Now, some keybindings and a modeline later, I‘m excited to share #evilhelix with you, looking forward to your feedback!

Ce samedi 25 mai je proposerai deux interventions sur #Vim (et #Neovim, #Kakoune, #Helix…) aux @jdll :

• de 10h à 11h, une conférence « ergonomie vimiste » pour découvrir ou approfondir l’ergonomie des éditeurs modaux (tous niveaux) ;
• de 16h à 18h, un atelier « tupperVim » pour partager des connaissances sur nos éditeurs préférés (niveaux débrouillés / confirmés / experts).

Ça se passe à l’ENS Lyon, viendez nombreuses et nombreux !

Aussi improbable que cela puisse paraître, j'ai mis à jour mon livre sur 12 ans après 😅 https://vimebook.com/fr
Le contenu reste sensiblement le même, j'ai juste refait tous les screenshots, vérifié tous les liens, utilisé vim-plug au lieu de pathogen, fzf au lieu de ctrlp, vim-fern au lieu de TheNerdTree. Bref, c'est pareil, mais en mieux. Reste la version anglaise à mettre à jour, puis passer à l'écriture du prochain sur !
Merci pour tous les retours que j'ai eu ici ❤️

There are days when I'd like to throw Vim at the wall.

:set stl=%f%{&modified?'\ •':''}

will have a status line like

README.md •

with the bullet point (•) if the file is modified.

:set stl=%{fnamemodify(expand('%%:p'),':~:.')}%{&modified?'\ •':''}

will eat the space before the bullet point for some reason.

All I did is replace %f with the %{…} expression.

This happens both in 9.0.1378 and 0.7.2, and also if I replace • with any other character.

Ideas, anyone?

(and ) will trigger au FileType netrw autocommands, as well as commands in after/ftplugin/netrw.vim when

• selecting a directory in a buffer
• selecting a file in a Netrw buffer (i.e. when leaving Netrw)

but not when first entering Netrw, e.g. by calling :Explore

Even though :set ft? will display 'netrw' no problem.

What the fuck?! I'm at a loss here, any hints greatly appreciated. :BoostOK:

Reproduce by doing

• nvim --clean
• :au FileType netrw echo 'netrw'
• :e .

With the minus key being the default #Netrw (and oil.nvim) shortcut for "change into parent directory", TJ DeVries suggested to globally (i.e. in normal edit buffers) map minus to "open Netrw (or oil) in the current window", and I think that's really clever.

Like, <CR> moves down into a directory or file, and - moves up into the parent directory – either of the directory you're currently browsing, or the file you're currently editing. Like a global "zoom out" key.

tip of the day: to replace text wrapping around some other, you can use regex groups and backreferences like this:

:%s/some(.*)text/other\1string/gc

For example:

Productivity increases with the level of customization you are making in the tools you are using most often.

The downside is that the more used to these customizations you get, the more lost you'll feel when
using a system that is not configured as yours.

Simple example: create a new binding in or . This is not only very common but
also very encouraged. After getting used to that, connect to a remote server.

So over the past year I have been using #vscode for my #rstats and #python work. my workplace is trying to move to a unified IDE, and vscode allows remote access and WSL integration for free. However, so far it fails to spark joy in me like #RStudio (despite lack of #vim mode) and #PyCharm do. Everything feels clunky, and subpar. The "intelligent" and linting things are also quite broken in R... Has there been extensions that fundamentally change the vscode experience that I should be trying?

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 in 1800? And what's that uptick in around 1880?

At least no one cared about 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 will now ask to create parent directories, if they don't exist, before saving a file.

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!

Fijn onderwerp voor 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 (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.
