@guriben @C_J_Fox @MillieBooLewis You’re in good company. I know someone who replaced his login shell with it.

@C_J_Fox @MillieBooLewis No giggling. A text editor that can solve the Towers of Hanoi and has a built-in psychoanalyst is serious business.

@m1ke_ellis Heh. Soon we’ll have you learning to type what looks like line noise into sed to edit them all at once.

@m1ke_ellis But as an old-school hacker, I’d really suggest learning enough of whichever terminal-based editor you hate least to get by.

via Echofon in reply to m1ke_ellis

@m1ke_ellis …and from there you should be able to just edit them as if they were local.

via Echofon in reply to m1ke_ellis

@m1ke_ellis Learn Emacs! Okay, less facetiously, things like Transmit will allow you to mount your files as a disk via SFTP…
