nano is a fine text editor if you don't edit text much and sometimes need to ssh into a thing and change a line in a config file. But I wouldn't code in it.

Also vim is better for that anyway if you have already learned it.

do vimtutor and poo poo, its worth it to learn how to do that stuff, makes a lot of repeated tasks way easier. ST2 vintage defaults to starting in insert mode anyway so you can pretend it isn't there for the most part if you are lame. I changed it to default to normal mode ofc.

No modes, no masters!

yosbros who love vi, explain your vi love

I used it for years and it had some nice nav features but I always found the benefits of not needing to leave home row to hit the cursor keys were eliminated by the constant pressing of escape

then again I don't have giant splizwarf hands

is vi love in 2012 basically like notepad love back in 1996, except this time everyone has macs

e: anyway the reason for the love its it makes doing common code and text editing tasks was faster and easier.

it's quick to get around in, mostly

still getting comfortable with it (and i use st2 in vintage mode, not real vim) but navigation speed alone makes it worth using

i guess hitting esc a lot takes up some time, but it can't possibly outweigh the convenience of being able to instantly change or delete an entire argument list, string, or tag. navigation is only part of editing

yeah I still use it pretty much daily and for that it's fine

I just assumed people who spend their time working on complex software projects had discovered modern tools that are a lot more context aware than a simple text editor

or are people using vim all riced up with a ton of halfassed plugins
