This sounds way more inconvenient to me when you figure in the amount of mistakes you are going to make creating keybindings in the fly. What might make perfect sense at first will seem really dumb once you've added 20 more shortcuts, and then you'll have to either stick with it or start over and relearn.
And seriously, emacs does so much! You won't even know what you don't know if you don't use the work others have done creating the UI (keybindings and shortcuts). Unless you really want to read all the source code yourself too
- thomastjeffery 3y ago> mistakes you are going to make creating keybindings in the fly. I have no clue what you mean. What is a mistake? In the fly? I'm talking about my permanent (until I intentionally change it) config, not some temporary real-time thing. > What might make perfect sense at first will seem really dumb once you've added 20 more shortcuts, and then you'll have to either stick with it or start over and relearn. Yes, but the alternative is starting with someone else's mistakes. I would rather deal with my own, because at least then I know what they are. > You won't even know what you don't know if you don't use the work others have done creating the UI Isn't that the status quo? If you want to use an unfamiliar feature, looking up the default keybind should be no easier than looking up the function itself.
