  1. Okay, with #neovide I can connect multiple clients to a single #neovim instance, locally or remotely, which is great.

    However they all share the same view of the neovim session/state and act a bit weird if their application windows are not all the same size.

    Is there a way for each connected neovide client to have its own collection of windows/tabs/etc (still sharing the same underlying neovim buffers) instead of being just a shared view onto the same collection?

  2. #nvim (#neovide) + colorscheme quiet + LaTeX

    it's just awesome :neofox_uwu:

  3. If you are using #nvim as an ide you should try running it inside #neovide.

    The experience is completely different than from inside a terminal!

    - Keep your current config (+ 10 lines)
    - Never loose the cursor again.
    - Smooth scrolling, out of this world!
    - No more graphical glitches on pane resize!

  4. TIL: on Windows, #Neovide can be tweaked with the following autocmd to ensure the title bar matches the colorscheme background. 😎

    local function set_titlebar_color()
    vim.g.neovide_title_background_color =
    string.format("%x", vim.api.nvim_get_hl(0, {
    id = vim.api.nvim_get_hl_id_by_name("Normal")
    }).bg)
    end
    vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd({ "ColorScheme" }, {
    pattern = { "*" },
    callback = set_titlebar_color,
    })
    set_titlebar_color()

  5. Is there any way to get fancy animated cursors on #emacs? Something like what #Neovide has ..

  6. @jimgar @VimLinks Yeah, I feel the same :-) In theory, it should help visually tracking the cursor… but in practice it's incredibly distracting. #Neovide also does smooth scrolling and maybe both features together can help vim beginners. This alone feels more like a toy tbh

  7. ...One more thing

    I have also added option to install the fancy wrapper with a special config thanks to a friend of the project.

    You can find it in the toolkit under "6. Recommended System Packages > 3. Development Tools." Have fun y'all !

  8. Since #Neovide arrived at #Flathub, I spent the day working using it.

    It's definitely beautiful! It's eye candy, there's just one problem: I couldn't focus on my work because of the cursor and scroll animation. 🤣 🤣

    I went back to using the good old terminal since I won't be able to deal with it.

    #Neovim

  9. wuha Neovide is on Flathub!
    Never felt the need to use a graphical interface for Neovim but this is definitely a great step forward.

  10. #neovide has become my favorite text editor. The latest release includes smooth scrolling, window animations, plus a bunch of cool stuff. All hardware accelerated while not trashing battery life.

  11. I didn't think I'd leave the terminal, but #Neovide strikes a great balance of UI goodies and minimalism. The animated cursor is also great if you're showing a coworker something in your editor. I had some coworkers who couldn't understand what I was doing when I opened a terminal and started switching between buffers and stuff 😅

  12. Discovered #Neovide via this toot. I'm quite the #terminal purist, but I gotta say the cursor warp animation and smooth scrolling is much more than eye candy. It helps a lot with keeping visual momentum, i.e. reduces the cognitive effort required to keep track of a buffer's content while moving around.

    Thanks to the built-in #neovim terminal (#vim too), I'll still have everything in one place. I'll just run the terminal inside vim instead of vim inside the terminal ;-)

  13. Good morning folks. This week I have taken a dive and am experimenting with learning #neovim (currently rocking #neovide front-end, with the #NvChad starting config). So far enjoying my little venture into this world, but it cannot be denied that the learning curve is STEEP.

    Does anyone have any suggestions for resources / tips to smooth out this learning curve a little?

  14. @partizan @mawkler @cassidy my first thought was "what's the point?". But after checking the docs, I've got to admit that the cursor animations made me chuckle.

    #Neovide #neovim

  15. @mawkler @cassidy

    #neovim is great, but imagine having neovim outside your terminal, with GPU-accelerated rendering and fancy animations

    I started using #neovide a few years ago, even contributed some patches to it. It is the best way to use neovim.

  16. Working on #adventofcode2023 with my new #Neovim setup sent me down a rabbit hole that led me to post a question on the #Kitty terminal discussions: github.com/kovidgoyal/kitty/di

    I'm using nvim-tree, and I wanted to unmap the (c)opy and (p)aste keys and remap them to ⌘C and ⌘V, but my mappings weren't working.

    I’m only using Kitty so I could map ⌘ keys in Neovim, unlike #iTerm which had too many hotkey conflicts. These keys work in #Neovide but unfortunately other keys don’t.

  17. For anyone using #neovide under #Wayland with #Gnome, we now have window shadows.

    But this is still experimental, as we're waiting for sctk-adwaita release, and winit update to support it.

    You can try building `window-shadows` branch.

  18. Ok, today in #Unholy:

    Can I get #Neovide to talk to #Neovim over docker forwarded stdio?

    Initial results indicate there is bullshit afoot, but I still need to track down exactly what it is.

    * Mismatches in how well cooked stdio is?
    * Mismatches in pty expectations?

    At the very least, neovide doesn't like the version of nvim that ships in debian stable.

    Мені завжи були цікаві ось такі редактори, але коли звик до vim, то єдиний апгрейд який можна зробити це до #neovim + #neovide.

    Але може хто ще не знайшов свій ідеальний редактор, придивіться до Helix, розкажете як там.
