Vi has been my editor of choice for five years now. Vi for life.Tessian wrote:Fucking hate vi.... needs to die in a fucking well; but most of the time it's the only damned text editor on Linux distributions by default.
And welcome to being a Linux home user. Ain't it fun? (Note: I am not a Linux home user.) Here's a little tip that disagrees with Sine: if the answer to a home use question is "compile your own kernel," give up. It will just lead you down a road of madness. Getting the configuration right so the kernel even boots can take days.

I hate vi, too, but I know how to use it. Again, I hate the non-Linux OSs that give me that shitty barebones vi.

Heh, mouse. Please. Besides, if I'm C&P that much, I'll just edit the damn thing in Textpad and run it through "cat > file"

Well I kind of finally got it up... it looks like the aircrack-ng works... but the wireless networks nearby doing WEP aren't nearly chatty enough to do this in a timely manner.
Also got to mess with the GRUB bootloader-- customized it with a splash screen and everything
Now if I could figure out why my wired NIC doesn't seem to want to grab a new DHCP if I transfer it from one cable to another on separate networks.

Is that supposed to make me cool? Does knowing Emacs or Vi mean that I'm going to get laid by some hot model?Kupek wrote:yy

Or just plain v for visual mode.
Are you an Emacs man, then?
Geesh, you're taking this a bit too much in a predictable direction. Vi and Emacs both suck. I used to use DOS 5.0s EDIT.COM, and that still is the best non-GUI text editor I've ever used.
Seriously, what the fuck does it take to get a text editor that can do something as simple as Shift+Arrow to mean "I'm trying to select some text to cut or copy"? I can do it in every GUI-based editor known to man, but somehow this logic is lost when I SSH into something, even though SSH can fully translate the key combination. I don't want to use my mouse, because switching back and forth to different inputs slows me down. And I don't care if the fucking editor can play Tetris; I just want the damn thing to use the international key combination for "selecting some shit".

Pssssst, Sine. Lighten up. I'm joking. Mostly. Although I do exclusively use vi, and everyone I know who doesn't exclusively uses Emacs.
The point of an editor like vi is not that it's intuitive. The point is that it's efficient. Put the time in to learn it, and you'll be faster than in GUI based editors. Also keep in mind that vi and Emacs predate the convention of using shift+arrow keys to select something. (But that's easy to do in vi if you press v to go into visual mode.)
