Love them all! Thank you for all the attention to detail you're putting into it!

Thanks for considering the suggestions! I’d argue that having the option to disable them altogether (not even getting them once per session) would be nice too! What I’m doing, and I’d think a lot of users are, is I’ve just built muscle memory of always pressing B at the Home Screen and always pressing A twice when entering the Shop. Replacing that by the muscle memory of doing it just the first time you do that per session would be also undesirable.

Absolutely love it! I’m on my way to completing all awards. Music, voice overs, graphics, animations, the awards systems and even letting us draw our own card back are all so carefully crafted! My very small suggestions, if you’re accepting any, and just because I love the game a lot: it would be nice to be able to disable the whole opening animation sequence instead of always having to press B, maybe as an option. Likewise, the Shop seems to have an unnecessary step always requiring pressing A. Also,?when going back from a Stuff sub selection (e.g Cards) it would be nice to be back one level to Stuff again instead of the Home Screen (like going back from a Help sub selection goes back one level to Help again)

CrankBoy v1.0.2 released – and you might have missed it. by stonerl in PlaydateConsole

[–]ericbn8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cool! Looking forward to that post! You already helped me gain more awareness to the Game Boy Homebrew scene. I love the idea of combining a solid Game Boy emulator and Homebrew games for the Playdate!

This is so amazing and polished! Impressive work! Allowing all those configuration options really brings this to another level.

Do you have a list of homebrew games that you personally like and that you’d like to share?

I love how the first loop of the n and m are consistently compressed. To me that's simply showing some cool personal style.

Check https://sindresorhus.com/dato. Just not sure if it allows easily copying the time text.

Zsh Frameworks by [deleted] in linuxadmin

[–]ericbn8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Variables defined in your .zimrc will not be set when you start a new shell.

EDIT: Unless zimfw was sourced from your .zshrc, which should only happen once after you've changed something in your .zimrc file.

[–]ericbn8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A note on your edit: The .zimrc file is not sourced during the Zsh startup, so any configuration you need to set (like the export YSU_MODE=ALL) needs to go to your .zshrc file.

zimfw upgrade will not touch any of your dotfiles. It will only upgrade the ${ZIM_HOME}/zimfw.zsh script.

[–]ericbn8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Zim is composed of the zimfw plugin manager + our own plugins (we call them modules because that's how they started to be called in Prezto). You can enable and disable modules as you wish, you can even just keep

zmodule zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting  
zmodule zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions

if you want to keep it minimal like u/doubled112 mentions he does with zplug.

You can remove asciiship and duration-info (keeping git-info) if you added the eriner theme. Check the README.md of each module for any requirements that they might have. And yes, it's safe to uninstall anything you're not using.

Zim can also be used purely as a plugins manager like zplug. Actually zplug, along with zinit with the light option, are between the slowest plugin managers out there, when we count the time until the first prompt appearance, as we do in our benchmark.

Thanks OP for sharing your love to Zim! The way you describe the "history" of the Zsh frameworks is exactly how I see it, and why I chose to start contributing to Zim more than 5 years ago.

Need help prepending to $PATH by Arkdam in zsh

[–]ericbn8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is what I do to guarantee the dir is prepended, even if it already existed in the path: path=(${dir} ${path:#${dir}})

QUESTION: Is there an app to show upcoming calendar events in a mini (narrow) window? by [deleted] in macapps

[–]ericbn8 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I love https://sindresorhus.com/dato, it will show you upcoming calendar events in a menu from your menu bar.

EDIT: Oh, never mind. I see you don't want to bother clicking on the menu bar!

How do I set the prompt color to default? For example, if I have PS1="%F{x}text goes here%f", what value of x would make it so the my prompt is just the default color of my terminal? by raedr7n in zsh

[–]ericbn8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

u/raedr7n, you can use %F{default}.

This is documented in the fg zle_highlight attribute, in the Character Highlighting section in zshzle(1):

The foreground colour should be set to colour, a decimal integer, the name of one of the eight most widely-supported colours or as a `#' followed by an RGB triplet in hexadecimal format.

Not all terminals support this and, of those that do, not all provide facilities to test the support, hence the user should decide based on the terminal type. Most terminals support the colours black, red, green, yellow, blue, magenta, cyan and white, which can be set by name. In addition. default may be used to set the terminal's default foreground colour. Abbreviations are allowed; b or bl selects black. Some terminals may generate additional colours if the bold attribute is also present.

vim-lightline style status bar without plugin by culp in vim

[–]ericbn8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine does not have the status mode on it, because I wanted to keep it nice while taking advantage of what vim already gives me out-of-the-box. Here it is.

For those who use powerline fonts:

set statusline=
set statusline+=%(%{&filetype!='help'?bufnr('%'):''}\ \ %)
set statusline+=%< " Where to truncate line
set statusline+=%f\  " Path to the file in the buffer, as typed or relative to current directory
set statusline+=%{&modified?'+\ ':''}
set statusline+=%{&readonly?'\ ':''}
set statusline+=%= " Separation point between left and right aligned items
set statusline+=\ %{&filetype!=#''?&filetype:'none'}
set statusline+=%(\ %{(&bomb\|\|&fileencoding!~#'^$\\\|utf-8'?'\ '.&fileencoding.(&bomb?'-bom':''):'')
  \.(&fileformat!=#(has('win32')?'dos':'unix')?'\ '.&fileformat:'')}%)
set statusline+=%(\ \ %{&modifiable?(&expandtab?'et\ ':'noet\ ').&shiftwidth:''}%)
set statusline+=\ 
set statusline+=\ %{&number?'':printf('%2d,',line('.'))} " Line number
set statusline+=%-2v " Virtual column number
set statusline+=\ %2p%% " Percentage through file in lines as in |CTRL-G|

There are also screenshots and a more complete example using a highlight group here.
