Coders or lemmy, what editors do you use? Is it worth learning a new one?
-
I switched to and exclusively used vim for about a year. I switched back to Sublime one day, and found I was like 10x more productive and comfortable.
Just use the editor you like. There's no right or wrong answer!
... And btw, Sublime 4 has improved LSP support. Just install the base LSP plugin + plugins for the languages you want. Some even give the option to install the LSP server automatically if if's not detected.

Vscode. I am surprised to see a lot of people still use sublime text. I was a long hold out on that one but it's just so much worse than vscode in every way.
-
Why do people use vscode over codium? (Minus the two people who actually know the answer)

I'll add shift + f6 for refactor rename and ctrl + 6 for redefining your function i.e. add/remove parameters and/or return value.

VSCode with the Vim plugin most of the time. Vim if I'm just editing something small and was already in a terminal.
Every IDE worth trying has Vim mode or a plugin for it, you don't need to use actual Vim to benefit from it!
-
Yeah I agree, I like that aspect too!
-
Ahhh nice, I have thought about trying out Kakoune as it supports plugins. Do you use many plugins/find them useful?
Helix does have a pipe command also.

I just use Vim out of habit. I've been using it as my main text editor since I was like 13 or so, maybe more like 10 I don't really remember. It works perfectly well for the vast majority of my use cases. I use Jetbrains IDEs if I feel I need the power of a full IDE. Jetbrains has an IdeaVim plugin if you want it to be a modal editor, or if your fingers are accustomed to Vim keybindings.

VS Code with your favorite plugins is pretty fantastic for any editing in my experience. I've tried others and they do seem to work well, but not well enough to warrant switching, and they often come with quirks that are just annoying enough to make me want to switch back.
I suggest trying others to know what's out there, even if you ultimately end up back on VS Code.

Ghidra seems intense when gdb is right there. Lol. What advantages do you see in using Ghidra on your own code? It seems interesting.

Amateurs. I manipulate the delicate flutters of butterfly wings.

+1 for Helix. Selection then action always made more sense to me than action then selection.

cat << EOF # [[content here]] EOF > file.txtOn a more serious note: Neovim for quick file-edits, doom-emacs as my IDE.
Doom-emacs does most of the stuff you are already using out of the box, is highly configurable and it lets you use vim-keybindings. It's also free (as in freedom) software!

Have you tried
ed? -
Sublime text, vi, eclipse, emacs depending what I'm doing
