I have created an abomination (alien.top)
 

A few days ago I asked if there was a Vim port of Denote. Well, I went ahead and had ChatGPT help me make one.

Here it is: https://git.sr.ht/~ashton314/vim-denote

Why make this? So my Vim-using friends (what can I say—I'm a tolerant guy) can work with me on some shared Denote-formatted notes.

Is the package awful? Yes. Am I gonna fix it? No. I've written enough Vim script to last a long time. I'll go back to the nice land of Emacs Lisp now. (In spite of all its warts, it's still a Lisp and therefore beautiful.)

Is there a Vim port of Denote? (alien.top)
 

Bear with me here—I'm an avid Emacs user. I love it so much that I want to stay in Emacs wherever possible! I need to collaborate on some notes with a Vim user. It'd be nice if there were some tools in Vim that they could use to navigate Denote-formatted Markdown files as easily as I can. Does anyone know of a Vim plugin that works with Denote?

Oooooooooohhhhhhhhhh… I can run things like cal or julia and it handles all the escape codes seamlessly. Wow. Totally sold now.

Thank you! That's helpful. I'm a little confused: what benefit does turning the eshell buffer into an eat terminal give you? Better perf? I'm still new to eshell and stuff.

Using Eat + Eshell (alien.top)
 

Hey there,

Maybe I'm just missing something obvious, but I'm a little bit confused as to how eat-eshell-mode works. If I, for example, fire up Eshell with Eat installed:

(elpaca-test
  :interactive t
  :init
  (elpaca eat (eat-eshell-mode))
  (eshell))

Then I try running e.g. top, I'd expect top to open in an Eat buffer, but it's not doing that for me right now: it just opens in plain ol' dumpy Term mode.

What am I missing? Is this not what Eshell integration is supposed to do? How do you use Eshell and Eat together?
