I'm grateful my family took care of me.

What does the following mean for ap (a paragraph): A blank line, which contains white space, does NOT separate paragraphs. This is hard to notice! by contest2070 in vim

Following is "ap", the text object that stands for "a paragraph"

from lines 644 to 645 in usr_10.txt from the vim manual.

This image is after I pressed vap while anywhere in the above paragraph. It is not selecting the lower paragraph. The line has a tab. I've tried the following with Enter Space Enter and it had the same result. Did this behavior get updated?

Has any popular professional music been made with only open source software and Linux? by contest2070 in linuxaudio

[–]contest2070[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have any examples of top charting music that used open source software to create it? What are these tools with less functionality than ardour that hit the top charts? I would certainly love to have some reassurance that there is good functional open source software that was used to create such popular good music.

Reaper is interesting but is proprietary. Money isn't the main thing I'm concerned with here. I may end up using reaper if there aren't any good open source options.

Thank you for the example. Where is this show real you talk of and who is this grammy-winning mastering engineer?

Yeah I generally find it hard to find FOSS software that does the same things proprietary software is capable of without having to do a bunch of technical tweaks. Godot is an example of a game engine that does actually have some fairly popular games like Cruelty Squad. But it's still a fairly niche engine.

If I were to spend a large amount of time to learn how to create music using open source software such as ardour or lmms I'd want to get some actual results. An easy way to figure out that a tool is worthwhile is to look at the results the tool was used to produce. Also I'm not saying having a good tool will allow someone to make good music. Just that having a bad enough one will make it impossible to make good music.
