What is chordal editing? Google search didn't give me any results.
I agree that having different programs on you computer integrated and consistent is a good thing. Sorry for the reference to the old joke, but wouldn't all the things you list look better in a wishlist for an operating system instead of a text editor?
- celrod 3y agoBy chordal editing, I just meant pressing combinations of keys at the same time. Lots of editors support this to some degree, but most (AFAIK) are either modal, or don't support keyboard-driven workflows. One of the other classic emacs jokes is about how it can take key-combinations to extremes, e.g. https://xkcd.com/378/ https://xkcd.com/378/ I agree that I'm looking for a tiling window manager. This is what EXWM (the Emacs X Window Manager) is. The problem with things like i3, is that it is not integrated enough with editing and navigation of files. I wish there was more in this space, as Emacs has some limitations for this purpose (e.g. multithreading), but AFAIK emacs stands alone.
