As much as I love TextMate, I've come to realize the folly of being tied to one commercial OS on the basis of an editor. I considered going all-in on VSCode, but if I'm going to switch editor after 20 years, I'd like it to be my last change. Vim will be here and free in 100 years

:: vim tip ::
The "dot" feature confuses many.
It’s important to know that with the . command, you can repeat only those commands which change the contents of the buffer.
A change is any command which you can use to modify your text.
F.e. hjkl won't be repeated with the .
