I'm pretty sure you can do the same thing with expand-region and smartparens combined and is more general than manipulating sexp.

It's not for Vim anymore but can adapt to many editing styles.

Well it's still in Beta though but I must say it's still excellent. This is from an Emacs user, currently using holy-mode (basically another way of saying Emacs mode in Spacemacs terminology and it's actually a mode configure

Great that you are a Spacemacs user now and glad that you like my tutorials. So, could you be more specific about how vim-sexp works? If you want to visual select sexp from symbol and expanding outward, uses expand-region: https:/&#x2

Unite, fireplace, rainbow parens, vim-sexp and vim-surround are all available in Emacs with its own and better implementation. If you want Unite equivalent, check Helm which is created before Unite and is still actively maintained. See one

I agree Srecode needs to improve its documentation. It took me a while to learn to use it by reading the actual templates written that come with CEDET. I may write a tutorial for it at some point. But not now. You can have a look at a sampl

It's quite more popular than you think. `M-x term` is an example. It's a full-blown terminal emulator in Emacs that runs entirely in another process. Here is another example of async grep/ack/ag: http://tuhdo.

What's wrong with Company: http://company-mode.github.io/ ? It can give me a large amount of completion candidates without any issue. It's also smooth. Maybe you are using auto-complete?

You can have decent smart completion in C++ like this: http://tuhdo.github.io/static/c-ide/semantic-boost-demo.gif Semantic is the equivalent to Intellisense in Visual Studio, though it's less smart on C++ co

At least for C, with GNU Global I can jump around Linux Kernel effortlessly, while I put it into VS and VS just hanged. For C++, well hopefully we have some new language to replace it in the future. But at least for jumping to symbol defini

Fair enough :) I just wanted to clarify in case someone read your comments and have a wrong impression that Emacs is a text editor like Vim. Nothing more, nothing less.

i think skewer-mode is close enough: https://github.com/skeeto/skewer-mode for live editing. I don't think that inlining feature really help much. Generally, if you want to access a css element in Emacs, you jump

> Yes (ctrl+alt+up). Does it work in the source as large as the linux kernel that shows you every possible files? i.e I have a file named `fpu.c`, I want all `fpu.h` in Linux. And Emacs does not work with only C/C++, but work for an

Docview is great, but not enough. He mentioned pdf-tools: https://github.com/politza/pdf-tools , that enhances doc-view with outline for table of contents and annotations.

Emacs also has that preview feature when you move the highlighter to a selection. However, I feel it annoying because screen keeps changing while I narrow to a file or a set of files, and luckily it is off by default. How about other thing?

Emacs certainly is not just a text editor. Emacs is just a big REPL, a REPL with a powerful text editor instead of minimal command line interface. Right on the homepage: http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/ , it is w

Think it the other way around: if someone can come up with a solution 5x fater than you and also type 3x faster than you, then how long you are going to catch up with him.

There's no correlation but at least it makes you more productive. Like using an IDE or good editor does not make you a good programmer, but it could improve your productivity in the right situations. For example, I don't want to w

You never need to remember keyboard shortcuts for major modes. When you forget, you can always bring a "cheatsheet" using "C-h m" which lists all key bindings of current major modes and minor modes. Every time I'm n

You should see my other answer to see what Emacs is capable of: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8639804 Definitely not less than Sublime.

Emacs can make Vim a subset of it. You should check spacemacs: https://github.com/syl20bnr/spacemacs . It was made by Vimmers and is ambitious: it wants to replace not only the "editor" inside Emacs, but also

I think what you described is code folding. Emacs/Vim has that too. And more to that. Look for the demos in my other answer in this thread.
