in thread There's a level in Hell reserved for ________
i'm still not a vim power user by any means, but i've noticed that when i
'vim a_directory'it pops up in a dired like mode.
" <enter> : open file or directory " o : open new window for file/directory " O : open file in previously visited window " p : preview the file " i : toggle size/date listing " s : select sort field r : reverse sort " - : go up one level c : cd to this dir " R : rename file D : delete file " :help file-explorer for detailed help " Sorted by name (.bak,~,.o,.h,.info,.swp,.obj at end of list) "= /home/me/omatic/ ../ fri/ friday/ fridaytwo/ pres/ sat/ saturday/ sun/ sunday/ thursday/ tue/ tuesday/ :call <SNR>2_ToggleHelp() 12,1 + Top
and i remember back in decades past that there were macros that could create and solve a maze. i simply assume that vim is Turing Complete and if you liked you could make it do whatever you wanted. but it might be like programming in brainf*ck.
it also does syntax-highlighting on the fly as i type so it could probably do any other work on the fly as well.
my whole take on the emacs thing is you don't have an editor with a scripting language, you have a scripting language with an editor module as the default interface. the web-browser is written in lisp and uses the editor module for input/output. =P
