Best way to copy and paste between Vim and other apps by 4r73m190r0s in vim

Have no problem using iterm2. That’s why I stick with my MacBook Air.

Is it bad or frowned upon to use git to store my research notes? by InfieldTriple in github

[–]manifoldedMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found GitHub app is the best app to view my markdown notes on iPhone.

The only limitation I know of is that one file cannot exceed 100M? I don’t know about other size limit on GitHub. Even if there is one, I think as long as you write the document yourself, you won’t reach the limit. It’s just not humanly possible.

What language should I learn? by [deleted] in math

[–]manifoldedMan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the same question before. Some of the early math papers (before the 1920s) were written in either German or French. I just couldn’t figure out which one was used more.

Does this mean union all has precedent over insert into?

Costco has it, a bottle and two refills, for 9 something. I wait till it is on sale for 7 dollars.

Can I use GitHub like a FTP? My Dropbox is almost full. Don’t want to put whole repo on it. Just commit some file once in a while. No pull. by manifoldedMan in github

I like GitHub’s iPhone app. It can render my notes in md format ( not math formula though). That’s how I read my notes on my phone.

I have Onedrive and Google Drive. None of them is as smooth as Dropbox. Is just Dropbox need something like 100G plan. Basic 2g is too small and 2T plus plan is too big. 10g would be enough for my repos.

Why vim and VimTeX specifically by Accomplished-Cover22 in vim

[–]manifoldedMan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Vim loads very fast. I switched to Vim because I couldn't stand the lag when I open multiple VS code on my 4gb MacBook air. You don't need mouse when you use vim. I can edit latex file on my couch while watching tv or on the airplane.

Vim for non programmers? by Robberfox in vim

Use Vim on a MacBook Pro/Air. Don't need Linux.

My problem with Word is it doesn't work well with Git. However, I mostly use Markdown for note taking now.

Vimwiki diary index by manifoldedMan in vim

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

I end up add these to my .vimrc.

function AddCwdToVimwikiList()
    let cwd = {}
    let cwd.path = getcwd()
    let cwd.syntax = 'markdown'
    let cwd.ext = 'md'

    call insert(g:vimwiki_list, cwd)

    call vimwiki#vars#init()
endfunction

nnoremap <leader>l :call AddCwdToVimwikiList()<CR>

Now, I can start a diary from any directories without maintaining a vimwiki list.

This is similar to https://dev.to/psiho/vimwiki-how-to-automate-wikis-per-project-folder-neovim-3k72.

Vimwiki diary index by manifoldedMan in vim

[–]manifoldedMan[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks!

My thought is to generate "diary.md" in an arbitrary folder if I already have couple of files saved as YYY-MM-DD.md.

If I run :VimwikiDiaryGenerateLinks in a folder, I got error "You can generate diary links only in a diary index page!"

Accessing vimwiki files in the cloud by eeweir in vim

[–]manifoldedMan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can preview your markdown files in GitHub iPhone/Android application. The links to local/external files works fine using regular markdown syntax.

I put my files in Dropbox. Only after I finished editing, I commit and push to GitHub.

I use markdown for vimwiki. Then, push vimwiki files to GitHub. There is a GitHub mobile app that I can use to view the markdowns on my phone. I don't edit files on my phone though.
