• regular Vim has lua?!

  Lua is quite small, encouraging distros to include it. The ubuntu gvim has, and the gvim AppImage linked from vim.org does. The default Makefile from github is set up to not include it, but you can uncomment one line there to get it. Source: over 3 years ago

• is there a way to make highlighted text persistent after quit when using something like [match Search /\%'.line('.').'l/] ?

  I've not used vimwiki locally (tho I'm old enough to remember the Vim wiki on vim.org :), but I think what you are wanting to do is extend vimwiki's syntax file. 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. Then everytime you open a vimwiki file it should apply your... Source: over 3 years ago

• 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. Unnecessary comparison, unnecessary defence. It's a valuable tool, fine, but a complete disregard for anyone who doesn't love a crappy website and would like to navigate a website like a normal human is not something to be defended. Maybe...

• What is YOUR process of writing ?

  I write in Vim with some customizations in my vimrc to gear it more towards prose writing than code editing. It's not pretty, but Normal Mode and Ex commands are the most powerful text editing tools out there, so that means I spend less time on making corrections and other edits. Source: over 4 years ago

• Seed7 version 2023-03-05 released on GitHub and SF

  The program bas7.sd7 has been improved to use fixLen[(in_integer)fixLen(in_integer)]) sub-strings. Source: over 3 years ago

• EndBASIC

  Years ago I created my own BASIC interpreter (Bas7) which is compatible to GW-BASIC and other old BASIC dialects. Over the years I did some improvements but I don't update Bas7 on a regular base because I concentrate all my energy on improving Seed7. Source: about 4 years ago

• S.P.A.D.E: A QBASIC like Terminal IDE and programming language made in Haskell.

  From the headline I expected some BASIC interpreter like Bas7. AFAICS this is not the case. It seems to be a language of its own + IDE. To some extent every new language is competition to the Seed7 programming language. :-). Source: over 4 years ago

• Seed7 version 2021-10-09 released on GitHub and SF

  To demonstrate the possibilities of Seed7, I programmed the Unix utilities tar, ftp and make with it. I also implemented a ftp server, an http(s) server and a BASIC interpreter in Seed7. Various other Seed7 programs can be found here. Source: almost 5 years ago

• Seed7 version 2021-10-09 released on GitHub and SF

  The bas7.sd7 (basic interpreter) example program has been improved. Now, it is possible to do a string multiplication with the * operator. E.g.: "ha"*3 results in "hahaha" and "ab"*2+"xy"*3 results in "ababxyxyxy". Now, the RPT$ function is checked for a negative factor. Source: almost 5 years ago
