The cat makes this so real
I’ll tell you what though: one you get used to it, you really get used to it.
I typed :q to try and close a tab the other day.
Edit: a tab not in vim, of course
At one point I had a plugin for MS Word that added vim key bindings because I kept leaving stray vim commands while editing other people’s documents.
There are vim keybindings for Code. Discovered that yesterday.
Though, if you want vim bindings for Code, probably should just use vim…
By Code do you mean VSCode? I use it all the time with VIM key bindings. It offers so much more than VIM with less finicky configuration. It’s the first IDE I’ve ever actually liked. Before now it was VIM or nothing.
Everything reminds me of Vim
I don’t remember what program it was but I once went to configure something, and the command to “open settings” essentially just opened a text file in vim.
Being a nano scrub that took me a second to get out of.
It probably opened it in
${VISUAL:-${EDITOR:-vim}}; usually setting one of those variables in e.g. bashrc will avoid future vim.Sometimes, programs that need to start up an editor will honour the
environment variable, which should contain the name of, or full path to, a user’s preferred editor.It’s not set by default though, and a lot of things will naturally default to
vior evened. Something to be set in a.profile,.bashrcor similar.is another variable that is used for similar purposes.The resemblance to certain two letter commands is not entirely a coincidence.
thanks for the ptsd flashback… and right after insurance denied my meds as ‘unnecessary’.
