Re: [dwm] Suckess Code Management
Hi, Amit Uttamchandani atu13...@csun.edu wrote: 3. Text Editor - Vim I mostly use elvis which, in my opinion, is much smaller, faster and more suckless vi-clone than vim. As a little example compare elvis.syn with vim syntax files. It even has interesting features that vim lacks (for instance see :display or smartargs). (they might be available in vim through scripts.) The only problem is it is not maintained anymore, AFAIK (I have sent a couple of patches to Steve Kirkendall but got no response; neither does the web page show any activity). I really hope it to be maintained once more :-( Regards, Ali

Hi pancake, pancake panc...@youterm.com wrote: i was using elvis so far until i started using vim. I was pretty happy with it, but the feeling was that it was keeping so much stuff in the core instead of delegating to external programs or scripts. But thats true, elvis is smaller than vim :) you can publish a git/bzr/hg branch of the last commit with your patches. I will happy try it and we can probably use it as a playground. I'm afraid currently I'm away and won't have access to good internet connection for a few weeks. If someone else volunteers to make a public repo, it would be really cool; otherwise I'll probably do that on repo.or.cz when I'm back. The doc/bugs.txt file in 2.2_1 shows a list of features and bugs. I'm not sure which of them is implemented/fixed, already. I've got simple patches to support vim style global/local mark support and to make put command accept a count. But, I use only the termcap gui and it might break others (though unlikely). Somehow off-topic: tcc compiles elvis in almost one second which is *really* cool. Regards, Ali

Alright, that makes 3 keys for one character; but it allows you to make a lot of other characters. Examples: Multi_key + ' + e = é Multi_key + ` + e = è Multi_key + , + c = ç but also Multi_key + c + c = č Multi_key + o + u = ů Multi_key + ~ + n = ñ Multi_key + c + t = ť or almost anything you can think of (useful if you want to write in several languages). Yep, that's what I was using lately, us + compose key. I just found 3 keys too painful : é à and ç are directly available on the azerty layout, and are quite frequently needed. Now I have them available with two keys : altgr+w, altgr+a, altgr+c, which is still practical. But indeed, the compose key would be very useful for writing a wide range of characters that are not too frequent. If you use emacs, you can use its C-x 8 prefix. Such as: C-x 8 ` aiso-transl-a-grave C-x 8 ' eiso-transl-e-acute C-x 8 uiso-transl-u-umlaut C-x 8 ^ iiso-transl-i-caret C-x 8 ~ niso-transl-n-tilde Use C-x 8 C-h to see all of them. signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Re: [dwm] Keys with prefix
On Thu, Oct 04, 2007 at 03:01:12PM +0330, Ali Gholami Rudi wrote:
I've written a patch to allow prefixed keys.
With this patch you can bind ``C-t k`` (where ``C-t`` is your prefix),
for instance, to kill window or ``C-t 1`` to ``view(1)``. You can
change the prefix by editing the line that contains the ``setprefix``
function in the config file.
I've written this patch because:
* Some of dwm's default keys conflict with emacs keybinding
* Some emacs users, including me, don't like to push three buttons at
the same time very oftern
* If ``? x`` (? is the prefix and x is a tag) is bound to view(x),
letters can be a tag like digits.
* Prefixed and normal keys can coexist
I didn't know dwm's policy for submitting patches; so I've attached
the outcome of ``hg export``.
In the last patch prefixed keys could not contain modifiers such as
``? shift-1`` (where ``?`` is the prefix). This patch fixes it.
So now one can bind:
* C-; x - view(x)
* C-; shift-x - tag(x)
* C-; C-x - toggleview(x)
* C-; C-shift-x - toggletag(x)
for both letters and digits (where ``C-;`` is the prefix).
