      This will allow you to ctrl+s to save. I tried to add this in a backtick code line/block but it removes part of the syntax.

      Is there any reason to use :w other than it being the default? I have mine mapped to CTRL-S and it makes sure to keep me in insert mode if I was in insert mode. Feels way faster and easier to spam than the 4 key presses it takes to execute “:w”.

        I use quake style terminals, and often start writing a file and completely forget about it and turn off the computer, and only remember what i left behind when i find the random recovery files around, so :w a lot is quite useful for me.

            Yes, on classic fps you could spaw a console that will drop down from the top os the screen, some terminal emulators allow you to do that.

            I like it because then i have the terminal always open that i just draw from the top of the screen with a keypress

            On KDE i do that with Yakuake, and on gnome with tilix

      There’s no Visual Studio for Linux, so yeah… especially as a .NET dev.

      Visual Studio Code isn’t the same.

      First of all, it’s fine to write code on Windows. In fact, many companies have windows-only development workflows.

      Second of all, many Linux programs also use standard shortcuts like Ctrl+S. Linux is more than Vim.

      Basically a Jackie Chan fight scene, complete with somebody rolling a carriage at him and him kicking it back to pin them against the wall
