Some people would love warp-to-location for Undo/Redo, some I'm sure would hate it. Some people can't stand that up/down arrow keys scroll the page rather than move the cursor (I'm not one). Acme might benefit from a config file in $home/lib/acme.conf or something. Yeah yeah, Plan 9 doesn't use a lot of config files, but Acme is one of the most complex bits of software we've got. This could allow the addition of new functionality (like a switch to make Undo/Redo warp-to-location) while still maintaining Curmudgeon Mode (triggered by not having an acme.conf).
I'm too used to Acme (with all its quirks) to try putting that sort of thing in, though :) john On Thu, May 31, 2012 at 11:05 AM, steve <[email protected]> wrote: > Aww, leave sam alone, he served us well for (so) many > years, zerox is part of his baroque charm. > > if where to change any text, which i wouldn't, it would > be snarf, which always draws comments from the uninitiated. > > the one real change that i think would be worthwhile > would be a warp-to-location on undo or redo. i occasionally > want to undo a little of the changes i have made, but if these > are not in the current view its not easy to judge how many steps to undo. > > -Steve > >
