Switch To Vim For Good

NOTE: This guide has moved to https://github.com/bpierre/switch-to-vim-for-good

This guide is coming from an email I used to send to newcomers to Vim. It is not intended to be a complete guide, it is about how I switched myself.

My decision to switch to Vim has been made a long time ago. Coming from TextMate 1, I wanted to learn an editor that is Open Source (so I don’t lose my time learning a tool that can be killed), cross platform (so I can use it everywhere), and powerful enough (so I won’t regret TextMate). For these reasons, Vim has always been the editor I wanted to learn, but it took me several years before I did it in a way that works for me. I tried to switch progressively, using the Janus Vim distribution for a few months, then got back to using TextMate 2 for a time, waiting for the next attempt… here is what finally worked for me.

Abstract

A simple stack for sharing research data on the fly using Windows 7 + SyncToy + Task Scheduler + Dropbox. This is information generated from a Agilent Nanoindentation machine; it include raw data, processed reports, and visualizations as metadata.

Motivation

Many users generate information from a single piece of experimental equipment. This machine is a standalone desktop system that is networked. Also, the equipment is available for general use with our Shared Resources Equipment at Georgia Tech. Often users move small packets of information with thumb drives or email; there is no reason to sacrifice expediency for something that can be automated. This description aims to expedite this process on a budget.

= Geographic Searches With Postgres's Earthdistance and Cube Extensions

This program shows how to easily create a Postgres database that uses the Cube
and Earthdistance extensions to perform fast queries on geographic data.

Briefly, the problem this code solves is "show me all places within 50
kilometers of New York City."
