Add `set editing-mode vi` to your ~/.inputrc and readline's keybindings resemble vi instead of emacs. You can also define your own keybidings as you like, like `Meta-Control-h: backward-kill-word` as seen in the example file in `i

It's glossed over because it's trivial, isn't it? Just statically link libcurl through a binding. And at least Haskell also has Haskell-implemented HTTP and TLS libraries. There's even options.

Ok, but it's not either Go or assembly. There's other languages. I listed 6 in a close-by comment. I wonder if Go's much more convenient at network clients than, say, Haskell or Common Lisp.

No. The protocol seems very simple: connect, provide a document reference, server responds with the document, and the connection is closed. Document may contain references to other documents. Imagine HTTP with only GET, no headers, no reque

On i3, with `i3-msg -m -t subscribe '["window"]'` you can get events when you change focus. With that and possibly the aid of `i3-msg -t get_tree` or some generic X utility like `xdotool search --onlyvisible \^`, you sho
