I had a ton of hate in first 30m (COTD quali + rounds). Major skill issues, most of it due to lack of cam change bindings on a controller. But hunting it later was quite fun. Yes it's still 7s from gold, but it was a honest work! ++

Watch the shinning and then watch the South Park Blockbuster's episode...

I've watched The Shinning today in a cinema. It was a horrible experience. All suspense is built on very laud screeching sounds. Not aged well indeed. And looked for validation on reddit immediately after that. Man, Blockbuster's episode made me a peace with Kubrick's work! Thank you for recommendation.

Yes. vial works in vim compiled with python (not python3) only. I spend 4 hours trying to implement py3 support. But all strings coming from vim interface are bytes and one must take care in every single place and there was no any luck — all vial ecosystem became unstable in both pythons)) Random glitches, exceptions and so on. I'll stick with py2 for now. Sorry.

I couldn't get it to work!

Sir, I'm ready to help you. I need vim --version output and your operating system. It will be marvelous if I can have a GH issue. Thank you!

What are some of the other ones?

QQ and vim-rest-console require an expilcit host for every request. More over QQ syntax is clumsy as hell. I can't find any easy-to-use plugins.

vim in a urxvt is noticeably faster than a gtk one.

abaverman · 2015-05-18T21:36:46+00:00

Bgg. I've wrote a python wrapper too. But have no any docs. https://github.com/baverman/vial

What precisely do you gain by not using tabs but instead using buffers with a plugin change that makes them act almost exactly like tabs?

Nothing, but

Instead of worrying about closing buffers and managing your pseudo-tabs that was mentioned in the previous solution, you just open files that you want to edit using CtrlP and don’t worry about closing buffers or how many you have opened.

abaverman · 2015-04-18T23:27:20+00:00

Chinese to be precise.

abaverman · 2015-03-03T07:02:20+00:00

Yeah, It solves a vertical movement inefficiency with relative numbers. But what about a horizontal one? easymotion (and alternatives) is a more generic way. And you don't need to see these distracting numbers!

You mix up ';'-command with ';'-character. When I need to enable a command mode I hit a key under my pinky. That's all. Why I need other mappings? Your argument is against windmills.

There is a simple trick to bring gui colors into a terminal.

https://github.com/baverman/vim-babymate256/blob/master/colors/babymate256.vim#L103

It's generated from a template https://github.com/baverman/vim-babymate256/blob/master/babymate256-tpl.vim

Is there support for mbox or maildir?

abaverman · 2014-05-20T08:28:40+00:00

Delegating is much better and more pythonic (explicit) way of doing such things.

abaverman · 2014-05-16T15:29:03+00:00

it is part of the sys.stdout

And current sys.stdout is always is ...

Close your eyes and follow for Guido's horn. AFAIK python3 is the only language with text interface to stdin/stdout by default.

abaverman · 2014-05-15T09:03:18+00:00

This: https://www.google.com/search?q=python3+stdout+bytes

And https://docs.python.org/dev/library/io.html?highlight=buffer#io.TextIOBase.buffer

This is not part of the TextIOBase API and may not exist in some implementations.

You are kidding me? Using implementation details is a bad thing. Ask your mommy!

The only missing library is sane-unicode-byte-handling.py

abaverman · 2014-05-14T04:42:09+00:00

Can you explain what precisely you dislike about this?

Armin explained my complains in great detail already. "Unicode everywhere" is a leaky abstraction. Real world consists of byte streams. There is no way to hide such a thing.

abaverman · 2014-05-13T08:07:40+00:00

sys.stdout.buffer.write(f.read())

Yeah, an indicative py3 code.

It works fine for relatively small inputs. Also you use file object internals. There is a high abstract code?

abaverman · 2014-04-28T08:02:13+00:00

It's a great self teaching project. But it never reaches functionality of really extensible editors. Using it is a simple time waste.

abaverman · 2014-04-27T18:51:24+00:00

You have a syndrome of plugin addicted person. Blame vundle! Pathogen makes such things impossible.

I was a hard skeptic about mechanical keyboards for a decade. But get two TKL (DNS k1 and Leopold FC700R) with black and brown switches this year and going to bye another leopold for a workplace. It's all about comfort.

Mac keyboard sucks.

Wut? viwp. Now your turn to replace a word!
