The New Stack · Vim After Bram: A Core Maintainer on How They’ve Kept It GoingWhat happens when the chief maintainer of an open source project dies. Maintaining VIM turned out to be a full time job, though the community has stepped in to help.
#vim#unix#linux

In the age of GenAI and privacy abuse, open-source software and everyone who is contributing to building, maintaining, and supporting FLOSS are real heroes. Today, I thank all of them on this #ilovefs day.

I appreciate keeping software free so everyone can afford and use it. I love #Vim, #Linux, and #FreeBSD very much.

Thank you.

PS: Please share your gratitude with the #ilovefs tag.

❤️ With all the installations on #GNU/#Linux (servers, vms, desktop, ... ), #BSD and #Unix systems, #MacOS, #Microsoft #Windows and WLS) I feel comfortable to claim there or way more than 1 billion installations of Vi*; often without people knowing about it.❤️

❤️ Thank you Bram Moolenaar, Christian Brabandt, the whole #Vim community, and all the people from projects like #NeoVIM, #Nvi, #Busybox #Vi, who develop and maintain their #vim flavour. ❤️

@b0rk I realize I'm succumbing to my baser techno-tribal instincts but seeing 78% say they use #Vim / #Neovim warms the cockles of my big nerdy heart :)

(I love emacs too and ran it for yonks but hard not to enjoy seeing others enjoy the same tools you do!)

To the #vim users out here: any clue on how I disable the vertical line that displays when I'm on an accolade? I guess it's to visualize the block of code you're working on, but I don't put my opening accolade after a statement on a newline, so it doesn't add anything for me.

It’ll save you more than keystrokes. It’ll save you time wondering if you even changed the file.

For an un-edited file, you can just use :q to close the file. For an edited file though, it needs to be written before it can be quit so you can do :w then :q or you can do :wq

:x will check for un-saved changes, and save them if need be. Then close the file for you.

Bonus tip — Use :xa to save and close *all* your files!

FosstodonVim Tips (@vimtips@fosstodon.org)Do you type :wq like a pleb to save your files and quit vim? No more! Use :x today and save yourself the extra keystroke!

That's just what I needed. I did a system update, restarted my PC and can no longer log in. It works directly on #tty, but if I try to edit a file with #vim or #nano, the programs apparently don't exist.

What the hell could be responsible for this? What has such power to cause such damage? I'm annoyed 😤

خب دوستان این هم از آموزش تنظیم و کانفیگ Neovim.

به عنوان اولین ویدیویی که بصورت عمومی منتشر کردم بنظرم خوب شد.

امیدوارم مفید باشه، اگر نظری، سوالی و پیشنهادی داشتین حتما بگین.
