Anthony Dardis

@clerie aaaaghhhh how do I get out of insert mode

ator robot

@Adardis @clerie Ctrl+Shift+M unless you're not in Writer, in which case Edit > something or other

it's like vi, but you have commands in insert and normal mode! just use Alt+something,something else,maybe more,help me; then tab around a bit and you'll end up somewhere you need to use a mouse.

@clerie VI/M users are like, so that's what we're going to do today? Fight?

@clerie the key part of "viral" is "vi" :P

@clerie Ich verwende Linux seit รผber 25 Jahren, aber mit vi bin ich nie warm geworden. Ich nehme nano auf der Kommandozeile, auch wenn das wohl eigentlich die Warmduscher-Variante ist ...

For anyone who is not aware, alias is not the solution you're looking for.

You are much better off setting some environment variables, VISUAL or EDITOR, so that less works correctly when you hit the 'v' key.

Your shell has to be involved for an alias to work, so anything that launches an editor for you, doesn't use an alias.

@tcely @clerie I appreciated it. He's just trying to be helpful to anyone reading by sharing highly relevant information -no assumptions about whether or not the op knows what he shared are made.

@clerie and I thought that `alias sudo="echo"` was evil...

@clerie I don't know when I became the kind of person with Opinions on this, but this post made my brain stumble for a moment. Well played, stranger.

@clerie Don't forget to set your EDITOR to that too.
OMFG that must be the worst visudo experience ever.
