Helix crew checking in, healthy and kicking
I don’t understand the helix approach.
Let’s build a new editor in rust (good), that is in the legacy of vim/nvim[/emacs] (good), that moves to resolve the backwards mechanics of the vim-syntax like meow (good) … but let’s build it all as built in features with no modularity ???
How can you build a new terminal editor like vim/nvim/emacs without realizing that the core strength is that the best features are delivered in plugins. Why would you try to write all of the functionality yourself? Why would you think that a small team can handle all of the work? How can you not realize that external contributors in vim/emacs are the source of the most interesting functionality?
I liked helix, almost as much as emacs w/ meow, but yiu xan’t extend it, or write a plugin.
I suppose you can question the approach, but I personally can’t argue against the results. I’ve been using it professionally and privately for almost two years and it rocks. I haven’t had a need for plugins yet.
Notepad++ works fine on Wine on Mac and Linux. After being away from it from awhile, I realized I don’t need it anymore. I would often use the column edit mode and recorded macros, but I just bash script those now. I guess I’m a different person now?!?

i knew i recognized the name somewhere earlier today when i learned about it, but i couldn’t remember how until i saw this; i was forced to use it because of windows a while back.
i remember liking it too.
Full on. China poisoning open source software. Lucky it got caught. Imagine how much of it is going on.

Notepad++ is ukraine shills, i’d guess they’re like hotznplotzn (western propagandists that always post clearly fabricated lies and almost always target china)
