I recommend checking out Komodo Edit. It has a really great vim emulation, and has all the nice IDE features that are useful (projects, file browsing, remote file editing). It has most of the nice things from Textmate (the Cmd+t quick open), extensions, and much more. Plus it's own snippet system as well.
- jamesbritt 17y ago"It has a really great vim emulation" Will it read in my .vimrc file and my custom scripts? That's the big win with vi for me, that I can customize and automate things.
- blasdel 17y agoThat's absolutely the opposite of everything I love about vi -- that I neither need nor want to customize it! I can sit down at a new Unix box 25 years in the past or future, and not be frustrated editing a file.
- pyre 17y agoUsually people don't customize the 'core' bindings/functionality. It's usually about complementing it with things that make your life easier.
- jamesbritt 17y agoExactly. I want :w and such to always do what they do. But I also want my assorted helper macros and mappings so I can avoid typing boilerplate code and so on. NetBeans has a vi plugin, which isn't bad, but I'm forever trying to do things that are only defined in my resource files and plugins, so I end up editing code in vi and using NetBeans for specific tasks (GUI editing, usually).
- jsober 17y agoOn OSX, at least, Komodo Edit was not a very polished experience for me.
- bmj 17y agoI tried Komodo Edit about six months ago. I really wanted to like it, but it was really just too slow (on Windows).
