Better yet:
Vim can save a session via :mksession file_name.vim which can then be restored by vim -S file_name.vim
It's nice when I have to quit programming while in the middle of task where I'm drowned in context spread across multiple tabs and splits. I'm not trying to spread the Vim gospel; this feature is nothing really extraodinary so I guess it's available in other editors/IDEs as well.
Overall this is roughly equivalent to putting your machine to sleep mode while your edition session is still on.
My personal opinion is that both methods make OP's look pretty primitive and hacky.
- collyw 13y agoI am an IDE (Aptana / Eclipse) user. VIM / Emacs sound like they have so many cool features. Can someone not build a decent interface that doesn't rely on remembering cryptic commands for all of the features? To people who know both. Would it be worth me learning either Vim / Emacs in this day and age? Eclipse has a lot of features and plugins. And way more intuitive interface (I use git through it, without having really learned all the syntax and options, it does most of what I want). Vim / Emacs seems like a lot of learning (that I could spend on possibly more useful things). Opinions?
