Yeah I’m surprised nobody mentioned emacs. The only thing missing is auto complete not just on command names but the descriptions also.

- NateEag 5y agoI was just thinking that someone should really implement this via extension. Then I thought "...assuming it isn't already built in somewhere." Looks like it's `apropos-documentation`: https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/emacs/Apropos.html https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/emacs/Ap... Can't be too hard to hook that up to one of the auto-complete M-x replacements. Someday I'll read that while manual. Someday.
- tra3 5y agoRight? I've been emacsing for a couple of years now but I haven't reached the critical mass yet; where I can sit down and just code something up like this. Anyway, M-x-helm is pretty critical to my workflow; half forgotten (or guessed) commands work pretty dang well when you can complete them.
- NateEag 5y agoI moved from Helm to Ivy a while back, but yeah. Booting into vanilla Emacs is almost a foreign country to me now.
