What's your text editor of choice? Vim for me
>>
>>492 Visual Studio Code for general-purpose programming/file editing JetBrains IDEs if I need a lot of refactoring , linting or code generation tools (Neo)Vim if I need to use the terminal or for a quick file change
>>
I use a pen and paper and then key in the code with vim
>>
>>492 post .vimrc
>>
>>492 Kate, no rice no nothing. It werkz.
>>
Emacs. Vim is cool too.
>>
>>513 An Emacs user not insulting Vim? Impossible
>>
Neovim
>>
>>527 Neovim is pretty fun to configure
>>
>>549 More like pain in the ass to configure

https://vimuser.org/ https://www.emacsuser.org/ Just going to leave those here and let you use your judgement.
>>
Emacs syntax highlighting is as if it were not even there, it escapes me how you guys can navigate that in anything above 1000 lines. Macros are neigh indistinguishable from normal text.
>>
sublime text is awesome
>>
I really like Geany Kate was nice too back when I was on KDE Pulsar is nice but I'm disappointed at the lack of themes it seems to have, plus it's an electron app
>>
>>1286 Pulsar is buggy. I wanted to try it out some time back but after a month I got tired counting bugs.
>>
>>1290 muerte it really is hard to find a decent ide/code editor that is lightweight and graphical, or one that is TUI but not vim-like, the options are basically narrowed down to geany, kate, micro and maybe some other editor i don't know about
>>
>>1307 I never figured geany out
>>
>>1310 I was very confused at first but things become simpler when you ignore the functionalities related to projects and project files when trying to load a whole project directory or import it. If you enable the file-browser plugin and just manually open source files from your explorer, it becomes much simpler/flexible/universal, etc. That's how I use geany and it's very nice that way
>>
>>492 pure vim with no extensions
>>
>>492 VSCodium for most stuff, neovim for quick stuff or for ricing. Ricing in VSCodium just feels wrong.

After debloating intellij idea I have come to take a strong liking to it
>>
Emacs for me, very nice to use. love
>>
>>492 Neovim when needing to do something quick on the terminal Gnome's default text editor because it works Notepad++ on Windows Kate if i'm bored and want to do something >>1612 I refuse to ever learn Emacs since last time I checked it out there was an entire e - mail client inside it
>>

>>492 Vim, always, with nothing added. I don't really see the point for anything else, even when editing code. >I refuse to ever learn Emacs since last time I checked it out there was an entire e - mail client inside it It has way more than that inside of it. From the top of my head: Calculator Email Calendar Games Debugger And it has its own programming language that is a dialect of Lisp.
>>
>>526 They probably use evil mode Fuck I love my emacs keybinds angry2
>>
bare bones vim with 2 lines of vimrc
>>
>>1617 Emacs does not have any of that "inside" of it. It is not a text editor that that fell to scope creep, but instead a Lisp interpreter/VM. As a side effect it provides a fully mutable environment which has resulted in the creation of many Lisp programs, some of these come packaged with Emacs, and the user may run or delete these programs as he sees fit.
>>
>>1625 I love emacs key bindings. I use them for everything. They're faster once you get the hang of it and move ctrl to CAPS. I can't stand modal editing. I use vi fairly often but I avoid it and use emacs whenever possible. Emacs has become my entire OS for the most part. I only leave it to use Firefox and a couple of other applications. If I can do something in Emacs I try to. I made a manga reader for it in about 20 lines of lisp because the one I was using was so annoying and pulled it so many other things. I was using emacs as my window manager for a long time. It was okay. But had some quirks I didn't want to live with. So now I'm back on dwm with emacs loading as a daemon when I log-in. It's pretty comfy.
>>
>>1660 If you ever want a simple in and out vi-like experience in the terminal but emacs style, you might enjoy mg. I use that when I want super user privileges without having to use TRAMP.
>>
ee and nano
>>
>>1665 Yeah mg is part of my OS I use it pretty often. I only use vi on remote machines where I can't install software.
