Creator here! Thank you for playing! Definitely some improvements to make, but I think this plugin is such a great tool to learn. If anyone is interested, I would like to start posting more content around improving golf.vim :) please leave any suggestions and happy golfing!
No matter how good or bad you may be at Vim, it doesn't change the fact that you introduced me to Vim. Thank you for this revelation of true efficiency.
I love how committed you are to Vim. Makes me almost want to use it.
maybe it's ok that there are no tech jobs for new graduates, opens the avenue for a pro vim esports league.
10:36 The issue with your mark not working correctly seems like you used the wrong kind of mark: Single quote (') only marks the row and jumps to the first character of that row (just like what you experienced, so I assume that's what you used). Backtick (`) saves the exact row and column.
10:44 Maybe you are using single quote to jump to the marker instead of backtick. Single quote jumps to the line Backtick jumps to the exact co-ordinate.
If you save your mark in "a" for example. 'a will move you to the line and `a will move you to the exact column
The idea is so cool. There are many puzzles which have great daily tasks, like making a json array of objects from a csv but they are way to short so it does not promote solving smart enough. Like The sort unique task can be done with %!sort -u (ofc not built into vim but realistic) but just deleting the 3 duplicates is faster. Also the paars could be more realistic. I really hope this plugin gets some more traction because it has much potential
`b to go to specific column and row of the local mark b
It's so confusing - there's vimgolf and now there's also golf vim Why... It would be interesting to see you analyze top solutions to vimgolf
Thanks for telling me about marks, I never heard of it and it will definitely come in handy!
To make it fair, they should really simulate the exact presses that were done to verify the solution, thus preventing such random shit in the leaderboard.
Needs an update so that using the mouse counts as 10 strokes
cool idea in concept, ppl cheating makes it absolutely not fun or interesting :/ perhaps having a physical timer as well, sure if u can mouse click faster than vim go for it 😅
w-wheres the golf...........
Sadly the project seems to be abandoned now and there are many problems with it
7:07 you did what now?
@1:25 how'd Teej get Prime on lazy vim
At 5:30, they wanted you to copy the first part of the function names and paste those into the comment
