- altcognito 5y agoMacros are probably the best feature IMHO. Unless I'm mistaken, I've not seen a macro recorder as featureful yet so easy/quick to use. I know vim has to have it, but I find it hard to believe I would ever get quick enough to be able to do it. So simple to put a complex macro together -- I had one today that removed empty lines, did a regex replace, then a straight text replace and some random line manipulation within 2 minutes. You can do it so often and quickly it's basically zero cost.
- billforsternz 5y agoI can never understand why Visual Code has become so popular when it can't do keyboard macros. Keyboard macros have been a fundamental feature of every (other) programmer's editor since at least the 1980s.
