To me, Vim comes close to being the perfect editor and I probably won’t need to switch ever again. The learning curve is very steep and it took me a year to master it, but investing time to be truly comfortable with my #TextEditor was more than worth it. I wanted to "look like a hacker" by doing everything inside my terminal and by becoming a better Unix citizen.it is a reliable tool that has been around for more than 30 years and will still be around for the next 30 years.your fingers literally don’t ever need to leave the keyboard home row (I had to remap the escape key though).After 3 years of wearily moving my arm and hand to perform the same repetitive tasks, I decided to switch to Vim for 3 reasons: I extended the editor with custom Python scripts that improved keyboard navigability such as autofocusing the sidebar when no files are open, or changing tab closing behavior.īut customization can only get you so far, and there were little things that I still had to use the mouse for, such as scrolling, repositioning lines on the screen, selecting the line number of a failing test stack trace from a separate plugin pane, etc. I like to keep the above commands saved in a script as ~/Dropbox/sublime-text-3/create_macosx_symlinks.sh so I can setup sync on new comptuers easily and quickly.I liked Sublime Text for its speed, simplicity and keyboard shortcuts which synergize well when working on scripting languages like Ruby and JavaScript. Ln -s "$DROPBOX_PATH/Installed Packages" "$DSTPATH/Installed Packages" Once again, paste following into terminal:ĭSTPATH="$HOME/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3"ĭROPBOX_PATH="$HOME/Dropbox/sublime-text-3" This step needs to be executed on every computer that you want to setup sync with. Mv "$HOME/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Installed Packages" "$HOME/Dropbox/sublime-text-3/"
Mv "$HOME/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Packages" "$HOME/Dropbox/sublime-text-3/" After those steps, all your configuration will be stored on Dropbox. Here’s how to do it on MacOSX: Moving all your current settings to Dropbox This howto assumes you have standard installation of Dropbox with main folder in ~/Dropbox. The good news is that, it’s really easy to implement such feature using Dropbox. Unfortunately it does not provide any way to keep settings in sync between computers and I like if it looks and behaves in very consistent way. It’s great editor - give it a go if you didn’t try it yet. I use Sublime Text 3 for development and all other text-editing needs.
