A text editor that doesn’t assume that the keys on my keyboard are in the same order as yours.

I remember looking up how to use Colemak with vim, and the advice was:

  • Change the mappings so the position is the same, but it has the downside that every tutorial won’t match.
  • Keep the mappings and do awkward stretches for common functions like up and down.

So I just gave up and moved on.

I hit the same wall with Dvorak layout.

that is a potential problem, though im sure there’s a vim user somewhere that’s fixed it with a bind set.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Rules

  • Posts must be relevant to operating systems running the Linux kernel. GNU/Linux or otherwise.
  • No misinformation
  • No NSFW content
  • No hate speech, bigotry, etc
