(i wimp out and use the mouse or something in gvim when i have to select less than a line)

black pete posted:Listen dog kennel fucker, if you think half of your code can't be generated then you probably vastly overestimate your ability as a programmer. Either that or you are working on open sores code which is so mind bogglingly awful that generating even a single line is an np hard problem. In the latter then you should probably get a new career anyway. this or you;re using some lovely language that cant have a proper IDE and teh ctrl space mashign that provudes

I don't know what's best, but I know if you like using a mouse when programming I just can't even imagine how broken your brain is.

why would you want to program with the ~80 tiny on/off switches of your keyboard, when you could harness the virtually infinite articulation of the human hand by using a mouse?

So f and F are for jumping forward backward to a character in the same line, but what about jumping to a character in a previous line?

MALE SHOEGAZE posted:can we talk about emacs in this thtead too emacs is really good. org mode at its most basic is a way to provide structure to the random crap most people constantly try and keep track of day to day. the stuff that normally ends up on post it notes, or e-mails sent to yourself, or source code snippets with commentary, to-do lists, small spreadsheets, org mode handles all that just by providing a sane place to keep all that poo poo. i use org mode as an inbox for things to research, an engineering log, my work agenda, meeting notes, etc it's super good for storing code snippets alongside documentation because you can open the code blocks in the correct mode for the language:  (notice how it exports the results of the code execution to the buffer as well, and is smart enough to turn arrays into tables that the rest of org mode can operate on) it can export to a variety of doc formats, including publishing entire sets of org files to HTML, it handles images,  it's basically fuckinga wesome and emacs is loving awesome. check out my coc thread if you want help, the community is super nice and emacs lisp is 100000000x better than vimscript Catalyst-proof fucked around with this message at 15:48 on Mar 29, 2015 |

mods please post the personal information about the individuals in this thread that are making GBS threads the place up regarding loving EMACS, a program that is gay for retards, the epitome of "let's add 'features' instead of functionality" spergs, so i can drive around and show them the light in the form of some hard dick up their EMASSHOLES

sorry , what i meant was: you don't know what you're talking about anytime a "programmer" uses a term like bloated, lightweight, or resource-intensive, it's fairly lol because you know they have no idea what they're talking about and simply have terrible superstitions masking their ignorance
