You Made it to the Belly Button

I’m considering making an attempt to move from TextMate to MacVim/Janus as
my main text editor.

I have a few main things I do with TextEdit that I need to be able to
(mostly) replicate:

  • Git integration with my website (I use git to do all updates)

  • Snippets

  • Blog integration (I use TextMate to do all blog updates)

  • Auto-linking of text (probably not available)

My main reason for wanting to make this change is that I spend a good amount
of time in Vim already and I’d like to be able to standardize (mostly) on a
single editor.

I’m going to meet up with my buddy Stephen who is already doing the
MacVim/Janus thing and see how much of my functionality he can or can’t
replicate, and then compare that to what he can do that I am not/cannot.

[ You can’t go wrong by spending 30-60 minutes with your favorite text
editor at the beginning of the year. Refresh yourself on the keyboard
shortcuts. It’ll likely save you a lot of time throughout the year. ]
