    You can take a look at my nvim configs here. I’m a Ruby dev, and like to poke around with my nvim configuration as a hobby. I’m pretty happy with where I have it, although it’s always a work in progress.

    That was my impression. I’ve been doing this for years with Ruby, tmux, and some custom zsh widgets.

  • Running rubocop with useBundler - nvim/lsp

    These are my dotfiles. I'm a Rails dev, and I'm using neovim nightly + solargraph. Here's a partial screenshot of something I'm working on right now showing a rubocop warning for the current line. The window showing it is being provided by lspsaga.
  • Autoscroll in a terminal buffer in a non-active window
    3 projects | /r/neovim | 14 Apr 2021
    I know people like playing with neovim’s terminal buffers these days, but in the spirit of “use the right right tool for the job”, I gave up on using nvim for things like this and went back to tmux. I have a mapping I use that runs rspec in the adjacent pane. It uses tmux’s send-keys to do the right thing. You could do the same thing, only instead of executing rspec, you would send it your tail command.

    IMHO, you are mixing TODO lists and task management/planning software. No, I don't know a good task manager or business process manager for command line. Instead, I created a simpler TODO list manager, called `td`[0], which supports flat TODO lists only, and use directories and command-line generators to manage todo's. `td` prints top item only, by default, leaving little room for procrastination. I'm keeping one `TODO.md` file per project instead of one large TODO file for all todo's.

    It works in my shell. :-/ It looks like you forgot to insert `false` command.

    You are pointing to the problem with -e not working in subshell/deep functions, because of POSIX. Right? It's described in bash documentation: http://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/html_node/The-Set-Bu...

    > I think just defining a die() function and using it after any command that must succeed is more verbose, but less error prone:

    Yep. It's the style I developed 12 years ago, when working at Bazaarvoice, when I was lead of devops team. I created the whole library for bash, to use this pattern consistently. See https://github.com/vlisivka/bash-modules#error-handling
