| rindolf | marzy: Emacs is not a better vim. They are very different. |
| rindolf | marzy: I could never get used to Emacs, but have used Vim for many years. |
| marzy | rindolf Emacs + Evil mode makes a better vim |
| rindolf | marzy: does it support all Vim extensions? |
| marzy | no, that’s why its better. it doesn’t come with a badly-designed scripting language!! |
| rindolf | marzy: well, it’s still not 100% compatible with vim. |
| rindolf | marzy: and Evil is an awful name. Sorry. |
| rindolf | "The only thing more evil than XSLT is XSLT edited with Emacs Evil mode." ;-) |
| marzy | i think it’s a good name considering emacs and vi(m) rivalry |
| rindolf | marzy: of course, I’ve heard worse - coq and coccinelle. |
| rindolf | And then there’s this guy here who called his programming language Flua which reminds me of Flu and Influenza. |
| Reactionary | rindolf: lol |
| dardevelin | rindolf, flua IDE is not that bad to be fair (at least the little i tried ) |
| rindolf | dardevelin: didn’t say *it* was bad - I said the name was bad. |
| rindolf | dardevelin: and I could never get it running here. Problems with Py3 and PyQt. |
| dardevelin | rindolf, oh that sucks... :/ |
| rindolf | dardevelin: yes. |
| dardevelin | rindolf, yeah i know you didn’t said it was bad, just as gave you my opinion on it as a side note. sorry i should have made it more explicit :) |
| rindolf | Of course, Evil is not as bad a name as SLIME, which is another Emacs mode. |
| dardevelin | rindolf, i had troubles with SLIME once and boy i got tired of fighting with it |
| rindolf | Reportedly it was also the nickname of an internal Microsoft version control system called SLM (that is now largely discontinued). |
