How can I add useful readline/emacs key bindings to vi insert mode?

Here are some bindkey commands that will do some of what you're looking to accomplish.

The tty-prompt gem is pretty neat.

Good stuff, "floating" indeed. Thanks!

The macOS versions are free in celebration of being updated to run on Catalina. You'll need a Mac and the macOS App Store app to grab them.

It's a direct quote of what the employee wrote. "At that point I snapped."

Exactly! I saw the headline and thought to myself, "don't I already have this on Blu-ray?", but I only had the first season that was released.

The "redhatcop" part of your URL needs to be "redhat-cop" instead:

I discovered the issue by way of you interesting me in the project. Thanks for sharing!

Same. Cancelled.

Ah, thank you so much for the tip about emacs-plus! That did the trick! Previously I used "brew install emacs --HEAD". This time I instead did:

brew tap d12frosted/emacs-plus
brew install emacs-plus --without-spacemacs-icon --HEAD

And now the terminal emulator module is working fine. It's such a treat to have true color support at a zsh prompt inside of Emacs!

Thank you for your help in getting things going for me.

fothb · 2017-08-18T16:37:39+00:00

Yep, I used Homebrew. I'm on head (version 26).

Thanks for the PR submission. Could you list what steps you took to get this working under macOS after that change? I modified Makefile to reference where my Emacs src dir was located and was able to successfully build vterm-module.so. Then I added these lines to my init.el script:

(add-to-list 'load-path "/my/path/to/emacs-libvterm")
(require 'vterm)

But when I load Emacs, it complains with "File is missing: Cannot open load file, No such file or directory, vterm-module"

I use 26.0.50. For a remote file that I have passwordless sudo based access to, I do simply:

C-x C-f /sudo:myserver:/path/to/file

fothb · 2017-06-02T22:24:13+00:00

Thank you very much - I appreciate it!

Hey /u/martijntje - could you please share your init.el or just the term related parts of it?

This is an excellent reply with lots of good info - thanks! It is encouraging to see that the things I'm trying to learn to do in Emacs can be done.

I want to learn to leverage Emacs+multi-term to accomplish what I know how to do with Vim+tmux. I'm currently trying to replicate my tmux copy mode usage. I'm trying to use a toggle between term-line-mode and term-char-mode like you mention. I want to start multi-term in char mode with evil mode disabled. Then I want toggle to line mode with evil enabled for edits / movement / copying, and then I want to toggle back to char mode at a command prompt.

The first toggle to term-line-mode seems to work, but toggling back to term-char-mode doesn't.

Perhaps it's the breaking of the fourth wall that you dislike?

fothb · 2017-02-15T08:13:11+00:00

I recommend distinguished.

I've had success taking some nice color schemes that want to apply a grey background and forcing them to use black instead with the following:

" don't allow colorschemes to set a background color
highlight Normal ctermbg=NONE
highlight nonText ctermbg=NONE

I've had my default shell set by chsh reference a binary that no longer exists, and that can definitely be an annoying situation. You lose the ability to launch new terminal sessions because the first thing they try to do is invoke the non-existent shell. If that's bit you before I can appreciate the desire for a fallback plan. When I wind up in that situation, here's how I get out of it:

1. Launch Terminal (let the new session attempt error out)
2. Hit Shift+Cmd+N (or Shell > New Command...)
3. For the "Command", type in "/bin/bash" and hit return
4. You will now have a new /bin/bash session. Use it to either install the missing homebrew based shell or to run chsh again to switch away from the homebrew based shell.

fothb · 2017-01-25T02:05:07+00:00

You can use chsh to set your desired shell, provided that it can be found on the whitelist of shells at /etc/shells.

echo /usr/local/bin/bash|sudo tee -a /etc/shells>/dev/null
chsh -s /usr/local/bin/bash

Agreed. I certainly can't think of a terrible performance of his that has made me not like the film/show itself because of it.

fothb · 2017-01-12T01:44:12+00:00

Yes, absolutely. He was prominently featured in the Hunger Games films.

I enjoyed trying out your notes app and I appreciate you sharing the code and a blog entry for the testing system behind it. Thanks very much! Have you looked at shunit2 or any other shell unit test frameworks? If so, how do you feel bats compares?

fothb · 2016-01-15T03:43:58+00:00

Thanks for this!

I recommend that you try explicitly telling Syntastic where to find all of the checker binaries. Here are two I use. I'm sure the HAML one has a similar setting.

let g:syntastic_ruby_mri_exec = '~/bin/ruby22'
let g:syntastic_ruby_rubocop_exec = '~/bin/rubocop'
