I inverted the number row on my keyboard - meaning that pressing the keys produces symbols by default, and I type numbers by holding shift. As a programmer I use symbols frequently, so I think that this will be advantageous. Here are the details of my configuration.
!
! Invert number row
!
! This changes the behavior of keys in the number row, but does not
! affect the number pad.

keycode 10 = exclam 1 1 exclam
keycode 11 = at 2 2 at
keycode 12 = numbersign 3 3 numbersign
keycode 13 = dollar 4 4 dollar

Vim: pushing built-in features beyond their limits

The situation

Searching can be an efficient way to navigate the current buffer.

The first search commands we learn are usually / and ?. These are seriously cool, especially with the incsearch option enabled which lets us keep typing to refine our search pattern. / and ? really shine when all we want is to jump to something we already have our eyeballs on but they are not fit for every situation:

  • when we want to search something that's not directly there, those two commands can make us lose context very quickly,
  • when we need to compare the matches.

Create a font using xfontsel or choose a font from xlsfonts

You don't even need the entire font description.

Ex. if you have the adobe font family just use
