- holyjaw 13y agoNah, he's a vim user IIRC. He has a really good vim tutorial on his site [0]. [0]: http://www.danielmiessler.com/study/vim/ http://www.danielmiessler.com/study/vim/

As holyjaw mentions (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7253126 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7253126), this appears to be a vimmer's self mockery, rather than an Emacsy attack: http://www.danielmiessler.com/blog/categories/vim http://www.danielmiessler.com/blog/categories/vim

- welterde 13y agoI still don't get how emacs ever got that image.. I never have to press more than two keys at a time, which is also true for vim..
- aaronem 13y agoWell, you never have to, but it can be useful, e.g. with C-M-x instead of M-x eval-defun RET. I've never yet had to bind a chord with more than two meta keys, but considering that even Photoshop has three-meta chords (e.g. C-M-S-s, File/Save for Web...), I don't really see the problem.
- pmr_ 13y agoThen you are doing it wrong. ;) But seriously: How do you do common things such as `query-replace{-regex}` or `indent-region`? Have you rebound them all?
- welterde 13y agoNope.. Haven't rebound anything. But strangely I very rarely need either of them, so haven't bothered so far to remember the shortcut (however I would indeed rebind them if that were to change). However.. point taken. The default bindings for those two functions are terrible (at least with a german keyboard layout).
