I second this. Plus, I ssh into my own server, tmux att and launch vim there. It is available wherever with Internet connection for me.

    > you cannot work on vim via internet Can you please expand on this? I'd say you're wrong, but I'm not quite sure I really understand what you mean.

      What I mean is that vim is a program that runs on your pc. Of course you can ssh to it from anywhere if you wish, but it seems to be over complicated just to write a text from any point of the world.

        What makes writing text locally any better?

          i do not know, for me having a tool available from almost any device via internet is better than having one only at my pc.

        There seem to be plenty of (vim-ish)-in-the-browser solutions: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3109847/is-there-any-online-text-editor-with-vim-like-capabilities-modal-editor http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3109847/is-there-any-onli... That's from 4 years ago, and the latest answer from over a year ago; I wouldn't be surprised if the situation were better now.

    Do you often find yourself writing on somebody else's machine? I don't know about you but I find that I do 99.99% of my work on one of my machines (where I have control over what's installed and what is not). So the issue for me is not if I can access the editor from remote, but if I can access/sync the data. (which dropbox solves for me).
