I am deeply saddened to know that you are gone forever,
deeply sad at all that you have given us teachings.
And a powerful tool with a fine and subtle intelligence as you was, particularly rich in humanity, for the children of Uganda and of the world as well as for us older children.
A masterpiece that will remain engraved just like its author on this small planet.
Courage to loved ones and family.
We will miss you Bram.
Nicolas

Yes, so shocking - I have been using Vim for so long - I guess, after a
while, you assume the author will be there forever . . very sad for his
family and friends . .

Yes, it would be nice to hear more about him - I was always impressed by
