 Hey Watts,

 Don't get me wrong.  I like Vim.  It has wonderfully useful features.  I keep 
 my Terminal Version up-to-date via MacPorts, and I keep a copy of MacVim on 
 the machine as well.

 I'm just saying the leaning curve is fierce compared to BBEdit.  :)


Well, I have to partially disagree with that, by placing them at about
the same learning experience. What I've found more difficult in vim/
MacVim is getting used to it, not learning the common functionality.
But all these are usually very biased points.

Unusual learning curve?  Try Vim.  :)

Navigating methods

2011-09-07 Thread Alex Popescu
Hi all,

At the top of the editors there's a small thing that allows
navigating a source file by functions (probably other structural
elements). Any ideas how I could get that thing to show up and take
focus using a shortcut? I'm not able to figure out what's the
corresponding editor functionality to associate it with a shortcut.

many thanks in advance,

A://

That's the function menu (or function popup), and its default key
equivalent is Control-Option-N.

(If desired, you can adjust the latter under Navigation Bar within the
Menus  Shortcuts preference panel.)

Yey! Awesome! Thanks a lot Patrick,

PS: after a few weeks spent with BBEdit I'm finally starting to: 1)
identify the functionality I need; 2) become productive; 3) enjoy it!
The key was not giving up immediately--as a text editor BBEdit
presents a new user with an unusual learning curve.
