About bindings, it would have been better to redirect to:
LESS=+/"DEFAULT KEY BINDINGS" man readline
assuming it exists on mac.
About suspend, what's the benefit of suspending vim using C-z? Shouldn't you use a terminal multiplexer instead, or even terminal tabs if you don't want to learn how to use tmux or screen (which I find weird if you already spent time to learn how to use vim but alright)?
I only ever suspend a program when I want it to stop, for instance because it slows other programs and I realize I would rather resume it when I'm not in front of my computer. Even in that case, I often just renice the program instead. Stopping a program just because you want to run some bash commands looks like an anti-pattern to me, but maybe there are better motives I'm not aware of.
- blockloop 10y agoI use tmux. The benefit of using suspend is not having to move around multiple windows/tabs. I try to keep those to a minimum (usually one or two). With suspend I can stick with the same tmux window for editing and cli within the same context. It's a personal preference over managing multiple windows.
- hiq 10y agoTo stay on the same window I would personally use a split-window depending on the size of the display. I didn't think about the context though, good point!
