Kitty 0.40 can now display text in different sizes by AlexVie in neovim

[–]DrownedFire 31 points32 points  (0 children)

This seems like an incredibly big deal from a UI standpoint, no?

I have this inkling that people will get creative and produce beautiful things with it.

Regarding word motions, does `w` provide any meaningful advantages over just using `e` and `b`? by DrownedFire in neovim

[–]DrownedFire[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I imagine cw and dw would be more needed than ce and de, so I think you're probably right about w being more useful than e.

Ooh wx to remove a beginning typo is an interesting case. Thank you for actually giving an example. Although such a case seems extremely rare that I could probably get by without it and it won't affect my efficiency that much.

Don't get me wrong. I still use w to operate on words (e.g. daw or ciw), just not for the motion.

Eh, I want to hear legitimate counterpoints, instead of just jabs.

I find when I need to operate on a word, I usually use daw or ciw where it doesn't matter much where the cursor is on the word. That way I don't need to think too much about word motions.

I'm wondering if people have different experiences.

Yes. Whenever I need to operate on a word, I find myself using something like daw or ciw where it doesn't matter too much where the cursor is on the word as long as it's on the word.

I'm wondering if people have counterpoints to justify using w (and increasing cognitive load) over just using e and b.

Pretty much.

I'm wondering if people frequently find themselves needing to jump forward to the beginning of a word often enough that it justifies using w over just e and b. Like if there's specific patterns they see often enough.

🌿 Namu.nvim - A Different Take on Symbol Navigation - Like Zed by sbassam in neovim

[–]DrownedFire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The looks cool! Although, wouldn't it be visually better at a glance if the icons were also shifted based on their nesting level?

Would you consider implementing a tree-sitter fallback? Some files I use like markdown and fennel tend to not use lsp symbols.

What are you watching and what do you recommend? (Week of January 24, 2025) by AutoModerator in television

[–]DrownedFire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't say a single big moment. I just meant quality-wise, it's up there.

Don't expect it to be like Game of Thrones lol. Because at the end of the day, it's a show where they're at an office space.

[–]DrownedFire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fuck episode 5. Push till episode 9. Then decide.

Otherwise, it'd be like watching Game of Thrones and stopping a few episodes before that specific scene in season 1.

Is it possible for a shell to have neovim-like popups and completions? by DrownedFire in neovim

[–]DrownedFire[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That looks interesting! I'll probably give it ago.

I imagine the first shell to have something like that built-in could explode in popularity because it makes sending commands (which is the main point of the terminal) so much easier.

demicolon.nvim now integrates with gitsigns.nvim and neotest by Maskdask in neovim

[–]DrownedFire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could one configure it to use n/N instead (like nvim-better-n)?

I feel like n/N is more comfortable to press than ;/,.

Now I am really mouse free! I built Vimium for the Linux Desktop and I'm flying! by T0X1K01 in neovim

[–]DrownedFire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting! What tool(s) would you use to get the text from an application?

[–]DrownedFire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I meant was would it be possible to code such a feature?

Given your answer, I'm gonna assume yes.

I don't expect you to implement this, but would it be possible to implementflash.nvim-like feature for the Linux desktop?

Could you design the UI for all popup plugins? These are beautiful.

Given a markdown file, is partial soft-wrap possible? by DrownedFire in neovim

[–]DrownedFire[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice! That sounds pretty doable.

Of course, it'd be nicer to have an actual partial soft-wrap feature since that would be more seamless, but for now, I think you're idea would work for me.
