Emacs-wgrep VS evil

But you probably wish something like wgrep (writable-grep), which is similar to wdired if you are familiar with that one. It will basically let you grep your files and display results in a buffer, then edit that buffer, and finally save changes to all referenced files.

Oh yeah, it gets even more interesting in large refactors, say an involved rename that requires you check the context before you do so (like not just global search and replace). I do a search, this opens a buffer with all results, with file name, position, all that, and Emacs can allow you to "peek" into the file without even leaving the search buffer focus (i.e use a split screen). Then, use https://github.com/mhayashi1120/Emacs-wgrep to do the magic of in-place editing.

If you use the grepping commands from the Consult package, consult-grep, consult-git-grep or consult-ripgrep, then you’ll probably want to install and load the embark-consult package, which adds support for exporting a list of grep results to an honest grep-mode buffer, on which you can even use wgrep if you wish.

The `Emacs-wgrep` [1] package is what allows you to edit a standard Emacs grep buffer and have the specified changes applied to all the project's files. I just recently started using it, and it's extremely handy!

In this post we see how to rename interactively a function that appears in several files using rg.el and wgrep!

Have you take a look at wgrep? https://github.com/mhayashi1120/Emacs-wgrep

evil mode

Since we already have vyper-mode, why not add Evil to the stack?

2 stripe blue belt here! I used to use Vim for everything other than Java development and have now adopted Emacs in the same way. I am using it for Clojure and Common Lisp development along with org mode, irc, rss, git and file management

I started with Evil mode and then moved to Xah fly keys before sticking to the emacs bindings. Having the caps lock key bound to CTRL helped me a lot. I don't know if it makes that much of a difference for Emacs but using the DVORAK layout has helped my fingers

There are other bindings you can try like Meow or God mode but I don't know what the adoption rate is like for them. Emacs gives you the flexibility to set it up as you please. As others have mentioned, there may be other keyboard options that might be more helpful as well

If you already know Vim, you should probably not use Emacs without Evil:

It gives you comprehensive Vim bindings so what you need to learn to be comfortable in Emacs is very little. As a bonus, it also keeps your RSI risk unchanged.

Emacs is a text ecosystem. And it's trivial to add these shortcuts. Evil[0] basically rewires everything to be Vim.

I would *highly* recommend using vim keybindings if you're just getting into it (Doom or just evil). I switched from vim to emacs and tried to rough it with the default keybindings thinking that otherwise I wasn't /really/ using emacs, but I was wrong! I've been using org-mode/emacs for ~2 years now and I've slowly been migrating everything into it as I find useful tools/modes/etc (and now thanks to u/ilemming I have ~12 more to experiment with 😂)

Despite using Emacs as my main editor, I was extremely familiar with Vim since I also used it frequently, and was able to use it quite well, especially because I also used [evil](https://github.com/emacs-evil/evil) in Emacs since Emacs's native keybindings are uncomfortable to use. I never used Vim as my primary editor though because it was cumbersome to configure. As many people say, Vimscript just feels wrong, so I gave up on trying to customize Vim.

uhm... this maybe? https://github.com/emacs-evil/evil

doom is a set of configuration files (to put it lightly 😅) for emacs, a text editor with really really powerful configuration abilities -- your "config files" are actually code in a full-fledged programming language, so people have done things like built package managers in it, or written full emulators for other text editors

Does it look like this? https://github.com/emacs-evil/evil/issues/1778
