• sublime text 4 shebang generator?

  The shebang will depend on your system setup. I haven’t heard of shebang packages, and I don’t know how useful they would be. But if one exists it would be listed on Package Control. Source: 11 months ago

• Recommended text editors for Mac

  Another Editor would be Sublime Text. Its not so mighty like VS Code. But it is fast, customisable via packagecontrol etc. etc. Source: 12 months ago

• New to SublimeText, just installed version4. How to get specific SublimeText4 Packages?

  I also tried packagecontrol.io but it seems like it is not filtering properly. If I try to filter :s4 its just returning a big mix of everything... Source: about 1 year ago

I presume it installs one at $VIMRUNTIM/syntax or or ~/.vim/syntax. If this sounds right, then create a ~/.vim/after/syntax/vimwiki.vim file and place your match command in there.

• vim.org - Is there a reason for this 1800s-esque design?

  Vim.org has 242k total visitors, tailwindcss.com has 4.4m, planetscale.com has 412k, jpl.nasa.gov has 2.6m, all built with Tailwind, all several years younger than Vim's website.
