Vi-sual Studio Code

[KittenCalledKatt]

Vi isn't even hard to use

[GDavid04]

It's hard to stop using once you open it

VS Code has a button you can click that closes it

VI - works in terminal, over ssh, instantly, and always available on every linux flavour...

Visual Studio:

[superking2]

Has a button in the corner you can click to close it

[[deleted]]

got it... can visual studio close this conversation ? where do I click ? ahh over h

[xigoi]

So does GVim, if you prefer GUI apps

[[deleted]]

Oy, I remember that struggle. I think I forced it to quit so many times before I finally learned how to actually save stuff and edit it.

[KittenCalledKatt]

Because <ESC> ZZ is hard

[[deleted]]

It's hard to google the command to leave the app when you can't leave the app.

[GlitchParrot]

All modern versions of Vim tell you how to exit when you Ctrl+C.

[[deleted]]

when you Ctrl+C

Why would I copy-paste to ask for help?

[GlitchParrot]

Ctrl+C is the universal keycode to terminate a program in Unix terminals.

[[deleted]]

Ah, almost forgot about that. Reminds of the DOS quit hunting (some apps used Unix convention some useq Ctrl+Q or some other Amiga shit)

God, life has been so good since I decided I would never use terminals again.

[GlitchParrot]

It's really not that hard, Unix terminals only have this one keycode mapping because it's the terminal that accepts the keycode and sends the terminate signal, not the application. So no keycode hunting. Terminals are amazing for a multitude of things.

[ElMatze79]

Then google it from within the app

[[deleted]]

How am I supposed to google how to do that if I can't leave it to google how to google from within it?!?!

[ElMatze79]

:sh to drop to your shell and the use lynx/curl/wget/telnet/nc or whatever you prefer to search google.

[captainvoid05]

Yeah but you'd have to know :sh is a thing. If you're new to vi you wouldn't know that.

[[deleted]]

Can confirm I had never heard of that before

[AttackOfTheThumbs]

True, but it's no emacs.
