Helix – Getting More Dangerous (Part 2)

[belalehner]

Helix seems to be a great editor and your video helped me to realize it. The two parts did cover the basic use of Helix, but I found it very useful, maybe You should make another one covering some other, not basic functionalities. Congrats and thanks!

Enjoyed seeing Helix in use. Perhaps personal preference but I think you and the content are engaging enough without the background music. 👍

Awesome video! Thanks. Hx feels like a superposition of Vi+ Emacs+ VSCode.

I do not know if we deserve an editor this good.
The only thing i am missing is the treesitter support for Pug.

What setting do you apply to make the cursor take the color of the text behind it?

[NehalHasnayeen]

Thanks for the video. Were you able to setup a debugger with helix?

[brodacious]

Hey! You and I have very similar names -- and very similar tastes in text editors, it seems. I can't quite grow that awesome of a beard though

Thanks for the Video. Is it possible to start a compiling a file and jump to next compiler error with a key?

How do you v/foo in hx? Visual select till match foo in search. I like the selection mode in hx and multicursor. The selection mode can immitated pretty well already in neovim using "cgn" but multicursor needs plugins. But I feel like it will take a few years to reach usability of neovim. Plugins and scripting language are a must. For example in neovim you can bind a key to launch a file manager like lf in the built-in terminal and then open files in the same instance of neovim using built-in server/client. Once you go lf you don't go back to shitty built-in file managers.

as a neovim user: that's baller lol

when helix gets plugin support, I'll try it out

Is it possible to comment code in twig files, eg {# …. #} not // ?

When i use "*" and then "n" selection goes to next appearance, but cursor do not added
Are you use custom keymap or something?

[NikolajLepka]

what's the mnemonic for mim? I can't see it in the keymap
