NotesWhen youâve been working for awhile and youâre all moved in to your new digs â maybe itâs the end of the day, maybe itâs been 71 days and you finally have to give in and restart your computer, you just save the session file to anywhere youâd like (I like ~/.vim/sessions/) using :mksession (or :mks)Unfurl
NotesThis post aims to provide an overview of how to create a highly functional and easy to configure Text Triumvirate for those new to this tool chain. I try to focus on aspects of how to integrate zsh, vim, and tmux with particular focus on my experiences with two common problemsâcopy/paste functionality and color aesthetics.Unfurl
NotesThe Vim text editor was first released to the public on November 2, 1991âexactly 20 years ago today. Although it was originally designed as a vi clone for the Amiga, it was soon ported to other platforms and eventually grew to become the most popular vi-compatible text editor. It is still actively developed and widely used across several operating systems.Unfurl

After all, vim resides in the most dark-corner-rich OS in the world, thus it should have intricacies that only a few privileged know about and want to share with us."Unfurl
Notes"Vimperator is a free browser add-on for Firefox, which makes it look and behave like the Vim text editor. It has similar key bindings, and you could call it a modal web browser, as key bindings differ according to which mode you are in."Unfurl
Notes"VI takes this same paradigm of pipes and filters and simply wraps it in a editor user interface in which the pipe is applied to editing buffer both as a source and as a destination."Unfurl
Notes"A really useful feature in Vim is the ability to split the viewable area between one or more files, or just to split the window to view two bits of the same file more easily."Unfurl
Notes"Several modern GUI editors list your open buffers as tabs along the top or bottom of your screen (VisualStudio, DreamWeaver, EditPlus and UltraEdit come to mind), now we have this feature in VIM!"Unfurl
