beacon.nvim VS languagetool

danilamihailov/beacon.nvim might do something similar to what you described.

I would recommend installing a plugin like beacon.nvim or similar which flashes the new location of the cursor whenever it makes a jump. That way it's easier for someone to follow where your cursor is, which is often a reason for confusion otherwise.

I spent the weekend tinkering with Neovim's virtual text and ended up creating this plugin. It's pretty close to being a clone of beacon.nvim but it's written in Lua. I find cursor highlighting very helpful when working on a large monitor where I inevitably end up with various splits.

Hello, guys. I have been using accelerated-jk and beacon.nvim for a long time. I think they are very useful and excellent. But, there has been no a complete version of lua. And recently I also want to start writing plug-ins, so here are they. I hope they will be useful to you.

I use https://github.com/DanilaMihailov/beacon.nvim and I love it. Would recommend.

I'm not sure if it's even possible to do something like neovide's animation inside the terminal, but I find this plugin really useful to display where the cursor is after you switch windows https://github.com/DanilaMihailov/beacon.nvim

Great tool, thanks for sharing. If you are open to suggestions, I would love to have spellcheck in it.

I don't know of a "global" function, but what you use depends largely on where you're doing your writing. It's possible to spellcheck markdown and html files from a terminal with aspell and to find the correct spelling of partial words with look. Some apps, like Grammarcheck can offer you close to global spellcheck. Apps like LanguageTool offer browser addons to check grammar and spelling.

Proofread for spelling, grammar, and punctuation errors (Grammarly, Hemingway Editor, LanguageTool),

Please re-read the wiki thoroughly, line-by-line, format your resume to the wiki guidelines, verify that each of your bullet points begin with a strong action verb and follow the STAR (Situation, Task, Action, and Result) or XYZ (Accomplished D as Measured by Y, by Doing Z) methods, proofread, revise, and repost your resume.

LanguageTool - I liked using Grammarly to check my writing, but it is not great for privacy considering it sends off everything you write to Grammarly servers. LanguageTool is a great open source alternative that you can run locally.

On extensions, for example, I use LanguageTool [1], which is similar to Grammarly. It could be configured with a local server, although I have a “premium” account which sends data to a 3rd party server. I trust this extension to verify my messages on HN, but I can't trust it to have access to my banking account. This is an example of a really useful extension that I'll never be able to fully trust because it has access to all websites, and it sends all that I write to another server.

In fairness, Firefox's advantage has been that Mozilla has a trustworthy manual review process for the “recommended” extensions.
