I'm really good in vim too, though. I like vim. I just wish we had nice things in vim, too. Besides, vim bindings is a square peg in a round hole. There are edge cases and community momentum to think about, all of which run against the grain when nonstandard setups are used with anything, including emacs.
- jordan_curve 6y agoAs someone who has only loosely dabbled with emacs and org, is there a reason that an org equivalent couldn’t exist in vim? I know there’s vimwiki and stuff but I mean is there a reason that the full functionality of orgmode couldn’t be ported to vim (modulo some keybindings)? Does it really on having more control over the UI than just what’s available in a terminal?
- djhaskin987 6y agoI think that full org mode wouldn't work in vim, but at a deeper level, it doesn't jive with the "zen" of vim. But I'd want a solution that did. Here's an example. Emacs has SLIME[1], and vim has like SLIME for vim[2]. The vim counterpart leaves editing in the editor but makes it easy for vim to work with terminal emulators to create a great but simple SLIME experience. It respects the "zen" of vim. I wish there were an org mode equivalent. Will be checking out vimwiki. 1: https://common-lisp.net/project/slime/ https://common-lisp.net/project/slime/ 2: https://github.com/jpalardy/vim-slime https://github.com/jpalardy/vim-slime
- proxycon 6y agothere is this package (unmaintained but still kind of working) https://github.com/jceb/vim-orgmode https://github.com/jceb/vim-orgmode I tried spacemacs, but its just too unfamiliar & seems slow.
