ltex-ls VS dotfiles

I think ltex-ls actually does this! (Haven’t used it so idk how good it is, maybe give it a shot!)

ltex-ls is huge. I have following setup in Neovim which works excellent. (I use Neovim only as scratchpad)

Hi, folks! There is great language server that provides spell checking for markdown and LTeX files using language tool called ltex-ls. By default there is no ability to use code code actions like Add to dictionary, Hide false positive, and Disable rule in NeoVim since those handlers should be implemented on the client side. So I created a simple plugin to add handlers to those actions and load already saved information on initialization of the server. I had no time to extensively test it yet, but it seems working for me just fine.

I am currently using https://github.com/valentjn/ltex-ls and it is a decent step up.

Nice! I have longed for a rust implementation of ltex-ls.

You can use ltex-ls with an LSP client. It looks like FOSS.

Story time: I really love Neovim for programming, but one thing I love it even more for is scientific writing. Tools like texlab make this especially fun! But for a well-rounded experience, I need a few more things: (i) Grammar checking. For that I can recommend ltex, an LSP-server which adds LaTeX support to language tool. (ii) Thesaurus lookup. (Neo)vims integrated thesaurus format is a little bit limited. But thankfully 'thesaurusfunc' exists so I could easily write a small plugin to add support for openoffice.org mythes thesauri. (iii) Machine translation. Now we're finally getting to the topic of this post. I write most of my stuff in English but I'm not a native speaker, so machine translation is valuable for me. It can help me to overcome writers block to an extent, for example. There already exist a few plugins for that problem, like vim-translator or translate.nvim. But none of these support interactive modes, a slick UI, and, as far as I know, useful things like motions and counts. This is where my plugin pantran.nvim comes into place! The demo should speak for itself. In the end it was a lot more effort than I anticipated but I'm very pleased with the result. I hope this can be useful to others as well!

Neovim with https://github.com/folke/zen-mode.nvim and https://github.com/valentjn/ltex-ls . You can fold headings in Markdown which is super useful.

All you need is ltex-ls language server and zen mode

BTW the widget I'm using is part of this github repo.

Using the LSP omnifunc with the builtin completion framework of Neovim (e.g. setting omnifunc to 'v:lua.vim.lsp.omnifunc') is sufficient for most of my needs. The only problem I had was that I also wanted to complete snippets. Luckily, besides omnifunc (triggered with i_CTRL-X_CTRL-O), a user-defined completion function can also be specified with completefunc (triggered with i_CTRL-X_CTRL-U). Because of this I wrote snipcomp.lua, which implements 'omnifunc' compatible LuaSnip completion. Now, I can complete snippets alongside LSP stuff and all other builtin completion sources.

I hope this is the right place to post this.. Personally I really like weechat, but since the configuration files are not meant to be edited by humans and contain sensitive information it is really hard to share my weechat rice in a dotfiles repository. That's why I created confload, a plugin which reads a configuration file with weechat commands. There exist similar solutions like inwee or autoconf, but confload provides more advanced functionality by making use of a macro processor, which makes it possible to use stuff like comments and well.. macros. Confload provides a special macro to obtain secrets like passwords from a password manager to eliminate any sensitive information from the config file. Since I created this for my needs, right now only KeepassXC is supported, but the script can be easily adapted for other password managers. Maybe someone else also has a usecase for this!
