One of
10the main reasons was that I wanted something that doesn't burn through CPU and
11RAM usage is not through the roof. I have been mostly using Visual Studio Code.
12It's been an outstanding editor. I have no quarrel with it at all. It's just
13time to spice life up with something new.<p>I have been on this search for a couple of years. I have tried Vim, Neovim,
14Emacs, Doom Emacs, Micro and couple more. Among most of them, I liked Micro and
15Doom Emacs the most. Micro editor was a little too basic for me. And Doom Emacs
16was a bit too hardcore. This does not reflect on any of the editors. It's just
17my personal preference.<blockquote><p>I tried Helix Editor about a year ago. But I didn't pay attention to it.
18Tried it and saw it's similar to Vi and just said no. I was premature to
19dismiss it.</blockquote><p>One of the things I actually miss is line wrapping for certain files. When
20writing Markdown, line wrapping would be very helpful. Editing such a document
21is frustrating to say the least. Some of the Markdown to HTML converters don't
22take kindly of new lines between sentences. Not paragraphs, sentences. And I use
23Markdown to write this blog you are reading.<p>But other than this, I have been extremely satisfied by it. It's been a pleasant
24surprise. There have been zero issues with the editor.<p>One thing to do before you are able to use autocompletion and make use Language
25Server support is to install the language server with NPM.<pre tabindex=0 style=background-color:#fff><code><span style=display:flex><span>npm install -g typescript typescript-language-server
26</span></span></code></pre><p>I am still getting used to the keyboard shortcuts and getting better. What Helix
27does really well is packing in sane defaults and even though because currently
28there is no plugin support I haven't found any need for them. It has all that
29you would need. It goes to extreme measures to show a user what is going on with
30popups that show you what the keyboard shortcuts are.<p>And it comes us packed with many
31<a href=https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/wiki/Themes>really good themes</a>.<figure><img src=/posts/helix-editor/editor.png alt=Editor></figure><p>It's still young but has this mature feeling to it. It has sane defaults and
32mimics Vim (works a bit differently, but the overall idea is similar).</div></article></main><section><hr><h2>Posts from blogs I follow around the net</h2><ul><li><a href=https://utcc.utoronto.ca/~cks/space/blog/linux/NFSv4ServerLockClients target=_blank rel=noopener>Finding which NFSv4 client owns a lock on a Linux NFS(v4) server</a> — <a href=https://utcc.utoronto.ca/~cks/space/blog/>Chris's Wiki :: blog</a><div>A while back I wrote an entry about finding which NFS client owns
