Do you ever miss the global commands not implemented in VS code's plug-in? I still do sometimes, like this: https://youtu.be/46Evprns18M https://youtu.be/46Evprns18M
- 40four 6y agoFull time a little over a year now I think. Yeah that's a good point. After a while you do start to realize the limitations of the VS Code plugin. That video is a good example. But once I got to where I could edit at equivalent speed I was used to, I dropped VS Code completely. I looked at the plugin as 'training wheels'. I'm not as hardcore as some. I still prefer to use GVim/ Macvim. I'm not an 'everything must stay in the terminal' purist. I know some who are, but I still like being able to use the mouse to bail me out sometimes, and always have access to the system clipboard without having to recompile vim :) I don't go crazy with config & plugins, but I got my setup to where I have all the features I missed from VS Code, and that's enough for me. There is always more to learn though. I feel like I've been complacent lately, so you have to remind yourself sometimes to make an effort to seek out more advanced techniques. That video is a great example of some of the incredibly powerful things Vim can do! I'm a big fan of macros for repetitive tasks.
