Using Micro

[patrickprucha]

Hello there. I'm very happy to be able to provide comments on Micro Text editor. I'm rather new to github and am not a developer, so much as a tinkerer who likes to put scripts together. Even had a huge library of functions etc. The point is that i have been tossing around editors. Gave up on vim. The learning curve required is too much for a 60+ year old man. Emacs, interesting but lots of work required. I really like org-mode.
Anyway, This is not a discussion perse, but a commendation on micro. Like every tool we use, once we really get use to the tool we came make art from it. With micro, yes its not vim, but i find that there is a lot of punch in such a small binary. I truly love using Micro. I'm very close to getting right of vscode, kate, obsidian, etc (so many apps can be replaced by micro) and just using micro. I also use it for markdown documents, taking notes, etc.
I just am starting to build my keybindings, but need to take a break, because there are so many conflicts that its drving me crazy.
One keybinding i love is the textfilter to run commands...i can build a TOC using a bash script and micro. Very cool!!!!!!

Final note. Sorry for long discussion. Excellent job on Micro!!!!! many thumbs up. Keep on going!!!

I also love micro. I just installed as a replacement for nano in temporary system to have normal keybindings for cut/pust/find... But I fell in love with it on the third day, now it is my favorite editor. One of the best features I like is embedded linter plugin.

About markdown. There exists some plugins that can make you markdown (not only) experience easier gotoctags (which is a fork of micro-jump). micro-urlopen and plugins from official plugin channel. Also when I looked on filemanager and micro-jump plugins I understood that I need something between them so now I try to develop plugin with sidebar that will show TOC and will allow to jump to them from the bar. Hopefully I will also expand it for full zettelkasten plugin.

Hello, a fellow micro-lover here! :)

I have just released this plugin called tojour, which I've been using privately for nearly a year and thought would share. It does some things with markdown that you might find useful, like live markdown heading TOC in a sidepane, as well as other goodies like todo and habit tracking, wiki-style cross-referencing and indexing, link, URL and local file opening and following, image-pasting, wordcounts, timestamps and more.

It's only tested on Linux at the moment but might work on other OSes and would love to hear your feedback or suggestions in any case.
