yo por ejemplo he tocado #GnomeTerminal, #Terminator, #guake, #yakuake, #kitty y #alacritty que recuerde. Pasé un largo tiempo usando #Guake hasta que extrañé mi tecla F12 y decidí usar un área de trabajo completa solo para el terminal, como hago ahora.
De shells he pasado casi toda mi vida en #bash y llegué a tocar #zsh y otras raras pero ahora soy feliz en #fish
comencé con el bloc de notas por allá del 2004 cuando aprendí html, luego llegué a usar #DreamWeaver y #FrontPage hasta que tomé Java en la prepa y conocí #NetBeans que me acompañó un buen rato. Al migrar a linux usé #gedit pero pasé más tiempo en #Geany que es una joyita. Luego estuve largo tiempo en #SublimeText hasta que me decidí a saltar a #vim en 2014 y luego #neovim, que me acompaña desde ~2019
Back when I was writing on @boingbot, I'd slam out 10-15 blog posts every day, short hits that served as signpost and public notebook, but I rarely got into longer analysis of the sort I do daily now on Pluralistic. Both modes are very useful for organizing one's thoughts, and indeed, they complement each other:
This week, @kottke linked to #B612, a free font family "designed for aircraft cockpit screens," commissioned by #Airbus. It's got all the bells and whistles (e.g. hinting) and comes in variable and monospace faces:
B612 arrived at a fortuitous moment, coinciding with a major UI overhaul in @thunderbird, the app I spend the second-most time in (I spend more in #Gedit, the bare-bones text-editor that comes with #Ubuntu, the flavor of #GNULinux I use).
You can enable the autosave feature in Gedit from Preferences -> Editor. By default, it autosaves every 10 minutes, but you can change the duration to your liking.
It won't work with a brand-new text file that has never been saved before.
