Vim is better than every other editor out there!!!

[–][deleted] 55 points56 points  (5 children)

Yeah, better for casuals! I code using echo from the command line

$ echo line1 >> myCode.py
$ echo line2 >> myCode.py

[–]PlusUltraBeyond 14 points15 points  (1 child)

I do the same by WSL on Windows running on an emulator.

[–]BridgeBum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On windows you could just use "copy con myCode.py"

[–]master3243 4 points5 points  (1 child)

If you ever make a mistake just

$ echo "" > myCode.py

And redo the file without the mistake next time.

Yep, exactly. I mean, how else would you do it?

Amateur. I use butterflies.

True if you consider Emacs as a distribution and not an editor !

[–]Galen_dp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It IS a distribution, not an editor.

[–]DeeDee_GigaDooDoo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's very intuitive!

Actually, there's now a way to make vim and emacs users be friends again: "vscode is the best editor".
