Nice post. I also really like you "space-vim" project. Another similarly named project — "SpaceVim" http://spacevim.org/ — was posted recently. "SpaceVim" was really upsetting because it missed so many of the important ideas of Spacemacs, such as pneumonic keybindings. "SpaceVim" is a garden variety vim distribution coopting the "Spacemacs" name, but you stayed true to the "Spacemacs" principles. Nice work!

I keep seeing tmux mentioned recently. Can someone eli5 what it does and why it's useful?
Man. https://linux.die.net/man/1/tmux
Or if you're not into the whole brevity thing: https://linux.die.net/man/1/tmux
Try it with a friend the first time.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
tmux is a terminal multiplexer - if you have ever used the `screen` command you already know what it is. I use a macbook pro with iterm2, and I prefer to use a terminal multiplexer instead of tabs or the native screen split of iterm2. If you ssh remote boxes a lot, it is very useful because you will not lose your session in case of an occasional disconnection.
Iterm2 also has a nice tmux integration. You can connect to a session but use native tabs and panes. It even works on remote servers over ssh. You just add a '-CC' arg. (You may also have to enable it in the prefs, don't remember for sure)
I would love to download a config file with a curated list of plugins that turns vim into a good Python IDE.
Let me augment that with this: I would love to donate to a project that uses ${INSERT_TERMINAL_TEXT_EDITOR} and turns it into a general IDE. I'm talking the full shebang. * Autocomplete/Autoimporting (Static Analysis backed by compiler output) * Formatting * Linting * Fast or able to run over a slow SSH connection. * Default error resolutions (if test() throws an exception generate a try { }) * Global refactoring * T…
Yesterday I've downloaded VSCode and https://github.com/DonJayamanne/pythonVSCode (seriously, look at the GIFs in this repo!) for first time and I had autocompletion (with IntelliSense and documentation lookup), refactoring and code define jumping for Python code out of the box working within 10 minutes in a VirtualEnv. VSCode + one plugin (all opensource) and I had something similar to PyCharm and fast. (nothing aga…
Emacs comes configured with a command called "send-region-to-shell" that will take the current region and send it to a python interpreter. It makes for a great development experience that I haven't seen replicated with other tools and I'm not sure why there's not a bigger interest in it.
For the most part, when I need this, I revert to Rodeo (since it has vim bindings like RStudio's), but if I could ditch it that would be amazing. Nothing against Rodeo or other editors, but vim habits are hard to break.
