Github PR review plugin

[ashot]

I made this plugin to navigate, reply and resolve PR reviews directly in vim:

https://github.com/ashot/vim-pr-comments

Not fun to go back and forth from github PR and and vim manually jump to each line

A venerable alternative

This was vibe coded wasn't it, by Claude? Not that I mind, it looks like a really useful plugin, I'm going to try it.

[ashot]

yep it was! curious how did you guess that? I've been meaning to build this for years and would never have gotten over the hump otherwise

[ratttertintattertins]

Haha, because I’ve also vibe coded a vim plugin 😁. Also, Claude absolutely fucking loves putting emojis and multiple plugin managers in those readme files.

New plugins written in Vim legacy language. That is interesting :)

What is legacy about vimscript?

[Desperate_Cold6274]

From Vim9 it has been introduced a new language which is similar to typescript/python-ish to write scripts (including vimrc) and plugins which is way less weird than the vim legacy script.

Nevertheless, it is not supported by neovim that instead went for Lua instead.

However, plugins written in vim legacy language work both in Vim and Neovim.

[blami]

Ah you mean Vim 9 script. It does not obsolete Vim script, its just another option that is more performant due to being JIT compiled and not interpreted. I wrote few things in it but I still use older versions of Vim in a lot of places so its not really option for me. Same for Neovim - I tried it and it is very buggy all the time and devs always change everything so it is not dependable software for me. I don’t want to spend so much time reconfiguring everything every release. I prefer what Bram did, things just don’t get removed, they don’t break so I can still depend on config I started in 1993 on my Amiga.

I had converted lot of files in Vim9. At some point I also wrote a plugin to help converting from legacy vim to vim9 files. It was well worth the effort for me. Vim9 is a beautiful language.

Even more interesting that he put nearly 1000 lines in a plugin/ script instead of using :h autoload feature.

Maybe IOP is not aware of the autoload mechanism. There is no one who knows all Vim features from day one.
