lemmitors

Did you forgot that lemmings are an actual animal?

You're both close. Combine the two and add a chocolate and coconut flakes coat. Everyone loves Lemmingtons.

Too much british sounding

Kbimbos

Or Kbinbows for those who want to evoke the same obscure Japanese-language pun as Michaelsoft Binbows

Filthy little kbinses!!!

Took me a while but I eventually realised I had to SSH from a other machine and initiate a reboot. It becomes second nature after a while.

Either that or ":wq" if you actually want to write things. These are the only commands one really needs to use VIM in a most basic sense. I don't get how it's so hard to remember or whatever

:x if you want to save a keystroke ;)

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

True that! For me it's just mostly muscle memory now, 'x' makes me think execute which is why I'll never be able to use it without hesitating.

There's so much non-info ingrained in my memory by nothing but my own logic which is why ^.

But using ZZ to tuck that file into bed is the only way I can do it now

I like lemming instead of lemmitor

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Run vimtutor. Everyone should.

Yeah, who would want to leave Vim? Reddit on the other hand... :-P

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Some former coworkers and I created a random number generator that worked by opening an insurance of vim and instructing someone who isn't familiar with vim to close the program. By recording the keystrokes we could get a string of random characters or numbers.

The results weren't very random but that shit delighted or immature asses

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah. Reddit still comes up in search results when I am troubleshooting. So they get my click once in a while but otherwise I avoid Reddit like a plague.

give micro a try if you don’t like vim!
