> but it quickly becomes a one way change. I've been using Helm for a couple of years, and it has crippled all other editors and IDEs for me. I never read the manual, I have no idea how Helm works, or what it does, or what it is supposed to do. Yet I do use it all day every day. I just type, and Helm delivers what I meant, blazingly fast. I've tried Atom, VSCode, Eclipse, CLion, Visual Studio, Xcode... I can't use them. You have to click on tabs to switch, you have to click dialogs to open views of the file system, and then navigate them to where you want to go, manually search for the file you want, actually use search boxes somewhere... they all feel super ancient UI wise. Sure, Atom, VSCode, Sublime, they all have some magic box where you can do anything, but that box just isn't Helm. With Helm I know there is a file or a buffer or anything somewhere containing something that I might need and I don't even know what it is, and I just start pressing keys and Helm goes from showing me the whole universe, to pin pointing me the grain of sand that I didn't know I wanted, by interacting with me. I have no idea how to even start Helm, nor which keys I press there. Do I press Tab? Sure. What do I press to start interacting with helm ? I don't even know, it just happens. Best tool ever.
