Its so rough watching non vimmers use vim
a pro vim user watching a vim noob using arrow keys.
/:wqa!and then reopening the editor instead of just using:wxrepeatedlyiand then the right arrow key until they're at the end of a lineSTOP! You're scaring the children!
The first time I ever touched Double Ds was in vim.
It's all fun and games until someone does
ddOinstead of usingS;(I've heard some people even use
:wqover:x….I’ve been using :wq for years…
Repent! Imagine all of the wasted productivity! Ahhhhhhhhh
What? No "Esc. Shift+ZZ" ?
That sounds like emacs-user talk. We don't take kindly to you folks around these parts...
It’s straight up vi, bro.
This is the way
Compositions don't bother me. Repititions do
Those last two made me physically recoil wtf
To be fair, I use arrow keys and I've been using vim for years. I happen to use Dvorak, so hjkl is... inconvenient (jk are where cv are on qwerty, h is where j is, and l is where p is). I could remap, but I'm used to other shortcuts.
I almost never use hl, but I use jk periodically. I just happen to use other movements more.
At my job I wrote a lengthy document on how to use vim, like the core concepts of the hot keys (each key has a meaning behind it, text objects and such). I feel like everyone was happy about it but no one used it at all. It's painful as hell to see them fumble on vi and vim.
You can share it at [email protected] I'm sure people (me included) would love to use it
I'd love to but it's in French, don't know if that's a deal breaker or not ahah
Are you kidding? I remove nano on purpose so I can sit there and watch them struggle!
Brilliant! I'm putting this in a script and running it on every single server I have SSH access to.
You monster!
People gotta grow up sometime. Might as well be with vim. 😇
