schme<p>I broke my Vim usage by learning Colemak and decided to fix it by learning Emacs. A surprise side-effect, manipulating terminal and many programs became easier due to the same keybinds – which I never knew before – working in many other places!</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/vim" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>vim</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/emacs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>emacs</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/colemak" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>colemak</span></a></p>

veer66<p>Vim is great, but it may not be the minimal text editor you were inspired to use from '80s memes.

Nikolay Robotoev 🥞🎙️<p>Vim mode in editors is like non-alcoholic beer - not a real thing.

Adam Katz<p>It's not often that I deploy a quick change to my <code>~/.vimrc</code> and it so thoroughly improves my life, but setting <code>&lt;Shift&gt;+&lt;Tab&gt;</code> to correct the most recent misspelled word has done exactly that, right up there with when I learned about <code>&lt;Ctrl&gt;+p</code> and <code>&lt;Ctrl&gt;+n</code> in insert mode. <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/vim" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>vim</span></a> </p><pre><code>" Correct the closest misspelled word (with spellcheck off, the current word)<br>" assuming the #1 option is the best (`2&lt;S-Tab&gt;` in normal mode uses #2, etc.)<br>if exists('&amp;spell')<br> function!
