@JourneymanGeek ar you there ?

how to mount drives not in fstab ?

Overflowh

Well, I need a lightweight editor..

Braiam

@Overflowh just an "editor"?

Overflowh

@Braiam Unfortunately yes.. I think that an entire IDE is too much for my live-persistent Lubuntu..

Bob

18:16

@Overflowh Vim ;)

Overflowh

@Bob Does it have a dark "skin"? I use to study/code till late, with all the light turned off..

Bob

@Overflowh The default in a terminal is a black background! :P

Braiam

err... vim is dark!

Bob

(And, yes, it has light as well if you want.)

There's no shortage of Vim themes, and you can define your own. I'm partial to Solarized, though the default/included ones are decent.

Overflowh

@Bob No, I don't want to use a terminal thing :( I know that vim has also a gui, I used it..

Bob

18:19

Ah. Never used gVim myself.

Overflowh

@Bob Ehm.. it's too much if I ask you for a screenshot of the Vim you use?

Bob

@Overflowh ^

The second one is the closest to "right" I can get.

Overflowh

Wow, thanks!

Bob

It's using solarized, but a combination of screen and PuTTY and my messed up config means the colours don't work as well (the first is in screen, the second is not)

And, yea, this is a SSH session from Windows 8 :P

Overflowh

@Bob Does not seems a terminal

Bob

18:31

It looks more like the second when i use it in konsole.

@Overflowh Oh yea, vim has mouse support if you want it :P

The learning curve can be steep, but it's powerful and light.

I just googled whenever i needed to do something I didn't know. The basic editing stuff was pretty straightforward.

You start off in command mode. Press i or insert to enter insert mode. Type stuff. Press escape to go back to command mode.

:w writes to file, :q quits, :x writes if changed and quits

that's enough to start editing :P

Overflowh

@Bob Mouse support in the terminal? Nice o.o and it implements also advaced features? Like, autocompletition?

Bob

/<something> searches forward, ?<something> searches backward, omitting a search term repeats the last search... and this can be used in man and less as well

a lot of things use vi-like syntax

Overflowh

@Bob I will give it a try right now :p

Bob

@Overflowh Autocompletion? Sure.

vim.wikia.com/wiki/Omni_completion

You'll want to at least add this to your ~/.vimrc :

syntax enable
filetype indent on
filetype plugin on

that'll enable syntax highlighting and autoindentation - it'll detect based on file extension

set mouse=a for mouse support (a being "all" or something)

Overflowh

I have to write down all those things :p

Bob

18:37

A: Autocompletion in Vim

You can use a plugin like AutoComplPop to get automatic code completion as you type.

I need to get that :P

Overflowh

@Bob Code suggestions in the terminal? :| So, it's not a real terminal..

Bob

huh?

Overflowh

@Bob Well, code suggestion needs to open a pop-up with all the possible choice right? And in the terminal you cannot open pop-ups, it's just a terminal.. or not?

cc4re

Hii all , I dont know whether this is the right place to ask such a question , but today i found a person who repairs faulty hard disk and mother boards which are having problems like nor detecting by windows , no display respectively with just keyboard

how is this possible ? how this works , i think he is sending some secret codes , like post codes receaved from bios , some what like that .. ? any one with any idea ?

Bob

@overflowh you can draw them with extended ascii characters

Braiam

19:05

BTW, @ThatBrazi i.sstatic.net/ZomgO.jpg

Overflowh

@Bob Yeah but they cannot draw on another "layer".. the popup with ascii characters must remain on the same layer of the terminal.. and this will mess up a bit the code..

That Brazilian Guy

19:26

@Braiam I never used identicon IIRC.

Oh, new topbar O_O

ThiefMaster

hey, is anyone in here familiar with adobe audition by any chance and knows how to jump to the start/end position of a range marker (or at least keep playback position and waveform display position in sync)?

ThiefMaster

21:44
