uemacs VS neovide

Neat, I am a fan of minimalist text editors. There is also uEmacs: https://github.com/torvalds/uemacs

maybe you're talking about the uEmacs Linus Torvalds still uses today? it's still maintained by him to fit his needs: https://github.com/torvalds/uemacs

u/DellOptiplexFan Ironic, since the literal creator of Linux uses a fork of microemacs https://github.com/torvalds/uemacs

Torvalds's Emacs is nice. https://github.com/torvalds/uemacs

Looks like he uses a thing called uEmacs.

Why don't you ask Linus? Or even better, read his motivation in his fork of microemacs (not GNU Emacs).

He doesn't. Linus uses MicroEMACS [0], which is an entirely different editor that uses emacs bindings.

It's not the lisp machine that incidentally happens to edit code that GNU Emacs is.

Or, as he puts it [1]:

> I use this abomination called "micro-emacs", which has absolutely nothing to do with GNU emacs except that some of the key bindings are similar.

[0]: https://github.com/torvalds/uemacs

Then on the other hand he has his own fork of µEmacs: https://github.com/torvalds/uemacs

- have a “graphical” user interface: https://github.com/neovide/neovide

The process above works fine, though, depending on your setup and project, you might appreciate the benefits of a lean editor like Neovide. So, let’s see how to configure Neovim to run with Unreal Engine.

EDIT: I found this just now -> https://github.com/neovide/neovide/issues/1902 and disabling relative line numbers does indeed make the problem more or less disappear.

Not Emacs, but perhaps https://github.com/neovide/neovide will be of interest to you.

im certainly not a programmer , but NVIM with SOME gui like neovide it looks amazing and great,

Yes it is neovide: https://github.com/neovide/neovide

iTerm2, since Terminal.app doesn't support 24-bit colors and I used Neovim for some time. I now use Neovide for Neovim, so all I use iTerm2 for now is the UI (I have a theme I like, plus dark mode actually works).

I feel this smooth cursor should be everywhere by default, as it gives so much better user experience. I have also been looking for a solution for neovim as well, but based on what I know, only Neovide has support for this. And most plugins do smooth scrolling only, rather than smooth cursor.
