Show HN: Vimer - Convenience wrapper to open files in existing instance of GVim
- miniflux 7y agoHonest question: What is the benefit of using this over a simple alias like: alias timer='gvim --remote-silent' Looks like the alias would do the same thing.
- susam 7y agoThis has been explained in the "Necessity" section of the README at https://github.com/susam/vimer#necessity https://github.com/susam/vimer#necessity (see the 2nd point).
- vimexpat 7y agoThis tool opens files in new buffers by default. I like to open files in new tabs. So I'd prefer new tab as default. But MacVim also adds "New MacVim Buffer Here" context menu option to open files in new buffers. Why is new buffer the default everywhere? Why new tab isn't the default?
