Hello All,
I can not say neovim is a bad thing. I do not have bad feelings towards emacs, neovim or other editors. These are just tools. I happen to like vim and am using it continuously for development. I tried neovim, but the pipe command (!) did not work as expected. I do think vi/vim's way of being able to run filters via pipes is awesome. I use fzf in vim and, as I remember, I could not get this to run with my macros.
I started using vi (elvis, then vim) in the late 90's. What I do like is the regexp (which I used to convert or process lines, csv files, etc), and pipes and filters. Pipes and filters basically do open up the door to writing extensions in any language (python, C, bash, ...). It is maybe restricting, but it is the one feature that struck me when I started out. ! commands also make it easy for me to run commands from within vim.
Acme editor is something that I am fond of too, but have no use for, since I am not on Plan9. But having text and being able to run that text is nice. There are ports of acme, but vim is sufficient for all my development, and editing requirements.
The video that Mark Chantreux has given a link to is really helpful and nice. Thank you for the link.
Regards
Riza Dindir
