not a lot of people thing about it... but VS Code is an amazing editor that can be set to autosave on a timer or on focus change |

bear: (and everybody) I'm looking for an editor that auto-saves its state (including files with unsaved changes that should remain unsaved but remembered), not auto-saving the files I'm editing, any suggestions? |
| 08:53 |
|
bear |
I know that sublime text does just that |
| 08:53 |
|
bear |
it will remember even new buffers that have not been given a filename |
| 08:54 |
|
aditsu |
that's great! except sublime is proprietary nagware |
| 08:55 |
|
bear |
yea |
| 08:56 |
|

the VS Code editor has two settings: one controls when files are auto-saved and the other controls if unsaved files are restored after relaunching |
| 08:56 |
|
bear |
/ Controls whether unsaved files are restored after relaunching. If this is enabled there will be no prompt to save when exiting the editor. |
| 08:56 |
|
bear |
"files.hotExit": true, |
| 08:56 |
|
bear |
// Controls auto save of dirty files. Accepted values: "off", "afterDelay", "onFocusChange" (editor loses focus), "onWindowChange" (window loses focus). If set to "afterDelay", you can configure the delay in "files.autoSaveDelay". |
| 08:56 |
|
bear |
"files.autoSave": "off", |

i'm finding VS Code to be quite capable of an editor |
| 08:57 |
|
bear |
cross platform even |
| 08:58 |

wat! microsoft made an open-source code editor that works in Linux? |
| 08:58 |
|
bear |
yes :) |
| 08:58 |
|
bear |
and osx |
| 08:59 |
|
bear |
now, it may not be open *source* but it's liberally licensed and zero cost |
| 08:59 |
|
aditsu |
hmm, it's not in Gentoo |
| 08:59 |
|
aditsu |
wikipedia says the source is MIT licensed |
| 08:59 |
|
bear |
yea, it's a binary download IIRC |

they may have bootstrapped by using the atom editor |
| 09:09 |
|
aditsu |
well, I have atom and electron already installed (if they're dependencies) |
| 09:31 |
|
aditsu |
huh, it's downloading its own electron |
| 09:31 |
