I’ve gone too long without a proper spellcheck setup in nvim. I know it’s there, I just don’t use it, I don’t have the right keybinds, like I do with vim date, to make it work, and its clunky.

I really struggle with bracketed keybinds, they don’t flow for me. I have to shift into it and hit two keys, you cant just pop through them with intent, it always feels clunky to me.

I barely use F-keys in my keymap so that was free game. On my keyboard I have F1-F9 in a numpad layout on my right hand, so F4-F6 are home row, these are super easy to pop through and update. I really refrain from using such high real estate keys like this unless it’s for something good, and I do a lot of writing in nvim, so fingers crossed I use the heck out of it.

Here’s the diff, this is it.

local M = {} M.setup = require("waylonwalker.setup") M.settings = require("waylonwalker.settings") + M.lazy = require("waylonwalker.lazy") M.options = require("waylonwalker.options") M.globals = require("waylonwalker.globals") M.keymap = require("waylonwalker.keymap") - M.lazy = require("waylonwalker.lazy") M.autocmds = require("waylonwalker.autocmds") M.util = require("waylonwalker.util") M.plugins = require("waylonwalker.plugins") M.snippets = require("waylonwalker.snippets") return M

The error ¶ #

On first install of my dotfiles I’m presenting with this flashbang of an error filling the screen with red background. Its kinda hard to read, I’m not deep into lua and reading their tracebacks. It pops up in this pager that if I scroll too far it quits and the error is gone before I know what it is or how it got there.

For the longest time it just felt like it randomly showed up without much warning.

I recently built a cli application as a nearly-one-shot-app called nvim-manager. It manages your nvim dotfiles install.

nvim-manager allows you to install pinned versions of your dotfiles, your friends dotfiles, and distros in ~/.config. This allows you to have stable versions that will not break installed while you change things.
