Ok, as a long-time emacs user (I think I started in 1985), I am officially nerdsniped.
Building the sdl2 version, there is no luck finding libSDL2_ttf, so I'll be trying the ncurses version.
Looks pretty snappy so far.
- taeric 3y agoSame. The live demo at the end was very effective at spiking more interest, as well.
- kleiba 3y agoReally? I find that the one really good design decision that survived in GNU emacs over all these years is that it does not have dialog windows. But it seems that that's pretty much what Lem does, at least when you find a file?!
- taeric 3y agoI'm assuming that is something you could get rid of, if you want. It was more the popping over to the repl of the editor that I found fun to watch. And the fact that it was working.
- tmtvl 3y agoTechnically GNU Emacs does have dialog windows (at least the GTK version): if you click File in the menu bar, followed by 'Visit New File...' it opens the GTK file picker. I only know that because when using Emacs on the Steam Deck using the menu bar is a little easier than doing input using Hacker Keyboard on my phone passed to the Deck using KDE Connect.
