Is there anything like this that is Vim-centric? Pretty please?
- Stratoscope 7y agoWhat does Vim-centric mean? Not asking to disagree, just wondering what this refers to. Thanks for any clarification. I don't use vim, so it's just a matter of curiosity for me - but it's always interesting to hear what kinds of tools other developers like to use.
- braindongle 7y agoI checked out the CLI for Joplin and it's a multi-pane environment with a command line at the bottom. This is also true of Vim, especially if you like panes, or "splits". For those of us hooked on Vim (I am silent on its merits), there is a state of flow that is quite pleasant, and you find that you want that flow wherever you can get it. The arrow keys just are j,k,l,; for example, and just lifting a hand from the home row position feels awkward if you're in deep enough. :)
- frankish 7y agoTodo.txt [1] is not VIM-only, but text-based and simple. I use and enjoy both the Android and CLI clients, but since it's text-based and (typically) Dropbox synced, you could feel free to edit with VIM, which I do from time-to-time. [1] http://todotxt.org/ http://todotxt.org/
- infinitezest 7y agoI've been using [vim-pad](https://github.com/fmoralesc/vim-pad https://github.com/fmoralesc/vim-pad) with Dropbox and it's been wonderful. It just saves markdown files to a directory so you could swap Dropbox for Syncthing or what have you.
- ktaylor 7y agoJoplin just released support for Vim keybindings. But, it also has a button you can press to edit a note in your favorite editor, such as Vim.
- flicker-rate 7y agoThere's an option for Vim bindings in the options, under general in Joplin.
