Very interesting! I would like to learn awk and this could come in handy.
I love emacs. These days I increasingly use it for more and more tasks from reading pdfs to writing notes to email. Despite this fact, something about the "doing X with emacs" is starting to bother me for some reason. It's hard to pin down why I feel this way, does anyone else have a similar experience?
- jasperry 5y agoI think so. I am a big emacser but I sometimes feel that trying to do everything in emacs is less elegant than having separate special-purpose tools, and leads to spending more time on configuration to integrate all the packages and manage all my frames. You could say that I want emacs-like behavior everywhere, but not everything inside of emacs.
- TheFreim 5y ago> You could say that I want emacs-like behavior everywhere, but not everything inside of emacs. I think you really hit the nail on the head with this statement. It's why I hope projects like NYXT Browser continue to improve.
