"Theres also a emacs plugin"

Truly heresy against the lord Linus Torvalds, Vim is the only correct option all else is unholy.

[–] wanderingwizard@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago (3 children)

Linus uses emacs. Not GNU emacs, but still emacs.

Whaddaya mean, not gnu emacs? xemacs and lucid emacs are long gone, are they not??

[–] Bassman1805@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

It's a weird archaic emacs version that is no longer maintained except by him, iirc

[–] wanderingwizard@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

He uses MicroEMACS

[–] jerkface@lemmy.ca 1 points 10 months ago

No shit? I used to used that in the 16-bit days. It's not really any kind of emacs, it just borrows keybindings and the buffer concept iirc.

However claims him, loses.

NeoVim says hi.

[–] kittenzrulz123@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Well obviously neovim is also a correct option, does that really even need to be said?

[–] epicstove@lemmy.ca 4 points 10 months ago (1 children)

My dad probably takes the cake as he used the OG VI back in the day.

Sonny, we wrote it Vi back in the day. Capital V, lower case i. Now get off my lawn! Isn't it cold? Policemen look younger and younger every year.

[–] dream_weasel@sh.itjust.works 2 points 10 months ago

nano/Kate >>>

[–] 9point6@lemmy.world 10 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Nano is for people posing at using Linux

You have to commit to a side in the war

[–] Jakeroxs@sh.itjust.works 2 points 10 months ago

Micro because mouse (jk I just use nano like a scrub because I'm used to it's hotkeys)

[–] kittenzrulz123@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

Absolutely bloated (kate) and nano isnt vim therefore it sucks

[–] Spider89@lemm.ee 1 points 10 months ago

Vim ain't intuitive like nano so it sucks. Doesn't have advanced tools like Kate so it sucks.
