Make CLI Great Again 🚀

An ongoing project to get back to a CLI-centric workflow.

Update (Apr, 2023): I now increasingly use kitty+zellij+nushell+neovim; and this page requires an update.

Topics

• Neovim: https://github.com/srid/nixos-config/blob/master/home/neovim.nix
• Email: https://github.com/srid/nixos-config/blob/master/home/email.nix

Motivation

• Get acquainted with CLI editing and workflows.
• Why neovim?
  • VSCode can be sluggish.
  • Hack editor extensions in Haskell (see nvim-hs)
    • Maybe even write a first-class Emanote extension.
• CLI email workflows: for more efficient processing (and scripting) of email

Posts

Todo

• terminal
  • bring up kitty on keybinding, from anywhere (for quick edits). don’t rely on tmux.
• #neovim
  • Add ee alias to open a file with fzf directly
  • New post: adding custom Lua functions to do things (eg: zettelkasten thingy; like create new notes under dir); bind it to keybinding, appearing in which-key.
  • VSCode ➡ #neovim
    • Searching
      • Open file by searching contents
    • Saving
      • Ctrl+S to save
      • Autosave for Markdown notes
    • Markdown
      • Sane indentation of lists on ‘enter’
      • Disable auto-collapse.
