    Not far from the original start of the text editor I wrote in fish, as just a wrapper around similar commands.

    fin (tech post) | fin (fish crosspost) | fin (codeberg) | fin (initial commit) | fin (branches) | fin (issues) | fin (video, lol), yt | fin (fun sizes comparison)

    What kind of a noob writes their own text editor in fish?

    PS, yet to add butterfly mode.

      Honest question, what the fuck is that font in the screenshot?

      https://codeberg.org/Digit/fin/raw/branch/main/finsfirstscreenshot.png

      I’ve seen fonts made for dyslexics, but whatever you are using is barely legible and I am curious why you use that font.

        LOL. I forgot… that nearly always gets picked up on, and I should have pre-countered the comments.

        It’s nztt, from my big tiny font collection (of tiny fonts I made).

        It [nztt] works for my dyslexia, and for maximising/optimising vertical space (more rows on screen at once). It [nztt] has been my go-to font for near a decade since I made it.

        It [nztt] seems to strongly split opinion. Sometimes it gets superlative praise, other times it gets baulked at.

        Maybe next screenshot, I’ll st -f "Fira Code:size=20:antialias=true:autohint=true" or something. Probably should… to not distract from fin.

        [ … Afterthought… Or maybe I’ll go the other way, and pick one of my other fonts… maybe even go straight to the extreme… “bf”. LOL. Maximally shrunk pixel font. Merely decipherable, not really readable.]
