Neovim + Neovide

Cool Features

• A Neovim/Vim config with full LSP support that I have refined for 10+ years
• Fullscreen overlay terminal with <c-i> (use iTerm3 plist)
• ZSH autocompletion with <c-e>
• Snippet storage via pet list. Type prev to store previous command
• Zoxide (previously autojump) to common directories with j <partial name>
• Lots of Mac optimizations

Basic Setup

Set a super fast keyboard repeat

defaults write NSGlobalDomain KeyRepeat -int 1

If you're on a Mac, I recommend remapping your Caps Lock key to a Control key in keyboard settings.

iTerm 3

Download and install iTerm3

Install the Dracula color scheme and activate it.

Open iTerm preferences, and choose General > Preferences. Check the box for load preferences from custom folder and choose the iTerm folder which includes com.googlecode.iterm2.plist. Before loading, you may want to change zesty to your own home folder via find/replace.

Neovide from source

cargo install --path .

To create a Neovide.app icon that will always link to the current version, create an "Application" in Automator with the following:

Make sure to pass input as arguments, and for shell use /bin/zsh

# only pass the first argument (file) to neovide launcher if multiple files are dragged
/bin/zsh -l -c "~/.zsh/bin/n \"$1\""

Fonts

Install the fonts in Library/Fonts

Vim (Legacy)

Once you install MacVim, start it and install/update plugins

:PlugInstall
:PlugUpdate
:PlugUgrade

To create a MacVim.app icon that will always link to the current version, create an "Application" in Automator with the following:

Make sure to pass input as arguments, and for shell use /bin/zsh

open -a /opt/homebrew/opt/macvim/MacVim.app "$@"

Now save that in /Applications to have a version for the Applications folder that you can link other apps to.

brew install emacs-plus --with-24bit-color --with-natural-title-bar --without-spacemacs-icon
