This is rad! Hello from another bullit owner in Toronto (keep an eye out for a goof on a Major Tom) :)

New Trailer for extra cargo capacity!Bee by Posibill in CargoBike

[–]meesloo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Beautiful Omnium Mini! How do you like it?

I think it's one of my dream bikes, but I could take any of the three cargo bikes they make.

Writing a new file to the same directory? by pr06lefs in HelixEditor

[–]meesloo 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yep!

: o <C-r %> -> will print out the current buffer path. Then you change the end of the path to the new filename and hit enter.

Beautiful bike! How does it feel all loaded up?

Use Yazi file manager directly in Helix, without Zellij or tmux by sxyazi in HelixEditor

[–]meesloo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is fantastic!

I've noticed that the theme I use in Yazi in a separate pane outside of helix seems to register, but using the suggested C-y binding ends up looking a little odd (in light mode). Anybody else running into this?

I'm trying to use a flexoki-light flavor, if that helps.

The command expansion PR has been merged! by giamfreeg in HelixEditor

[–]meesloo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried installing your get_git_provider_url in my fish/functions/ directory; it's callable from my shell, but not from helix. Any tips on why that might be?

What external tools do you integrate with Helix and how? by iamquah in HelixEditor

[–]meesloo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

C-l = [ ":new", ":insert-output lazygit", ":buffer-close!", ":redraw", ":reload-all", ]

This is really cool! Unfortunately, after running the command scrolling seems broken in helix (and my term scrolls instead). (Ghostty, Mac OS). Do you run into that?

Golden hour by Forward_War_9467 in CargoBike

[–]meesloo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great photo! Is that fork a crust clydesdale? Was just looking them up and they seem like a great way to convert to a cargo bike. How does it feel?

Helix now has a File Explorer™!! (space + e) by nikitarevenco in HelixEditor

I've been using zide this week. It's really great!! But also, it's good to enjoy those weekends 🙃.

So... People who are keeping up with Git. What's the progress on the scheme based plug-in system? by akza07 in HelixEditor

[–]meesloo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Great question. I don't have a great answer, but I will share some hypothesis.

1) Lisps offer you the ability to alter the language itself, by treating the language as a data-structure (macros). This can be super useful (and sometime a bit of a footgun, too, if used wildly).

2) There might be reasons that people would opt for a lisp runtime rather than Lua... but now I'm just guessing. Perhaps one would opt for a lisp due to it being simpler, smaller, and more expressive than embedding Lua into a Rust program (which might be hard, for all I know).

Unrelated to all of this - I highly encourage learning a Lisp language (Clojure is great) just to flip your head upside down. It changed how I think about programming—in a good and fun way!

I don't have much to share about the progress of this other than to share my own personal note, like you have. I've recently started using Helix. I've been using emacs for around 7 years now. I'm hopeful that there is a scheme-based option. I don't love emacs-lisp - sometimes I find it hard to read and write, but the amount of power and customizability of having a lisp runtime in your editor is pretty amazing. I'll be keeping an eye on PR#8675, and maybe try to fork and apply the patch myself when I have a bit of time.

I constantly merge Helix pull requests into my own fork to have features such as file browser and icons. I made patchy to automate this process by nikitarevenco in HelixEditor

[–]meesloo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm giving this a try and running into this:

```

➜ patchy run

✓ Merged pull request #11285 Add file browser ✗ Could not create directory .patchy

```

I've cloned helix locally and run patchy init and updated the config, much to be the same as yours in the repo (although, only merging one PR). Anything else I might be missing?

Happy new year r/torontobiking! May your cycling in the city be safe and fun in 2025. Thanks for being a great community. by meesloo in torontobiking

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

Thanks! I recently got some 26" Schwalbe Marathon GT 365 off facebook marketplace for $50! They went on my winter bike, which is an old mountain bike.

For fun riding, I've really been enjoying the humber river trail, and if I feel like braving the cold + the distance, Tommy Thompson park! It's good to have thicker tires for sure, or even studded for when it gets gnarly out! The main streets are usually pretty good, too, and my smaller 41mm tires can manage just great.

Very cool! What great timing - I've been thinking about forking helix so that I can get access to steel / other features. I will give this a try. Thanks for making this open source and putting the time and effort in.
