Welcome to Khalid's Shell. This is the channel for my blog: blog.khalidrafi.tech/en

Khalid's Shell is the playground for my technical expertise. I share my knowledge with the world as I learn and try different stuffs. Explore my gems and pearls as I dive into the ocean of technology.

My topics of interest are: Linux, Open Source, Emacs, Privacy, Cybersecurity etc.

Hope you have a great time here!

So far, the only terminal where I've found proper Bangla language support is Emacs' terminal. My switch from Neovim to Emacs was primarily for Bangla support. But once I dove in, I realized Emacs is a powerhouse. I wish I used it from the beginning instead of Neovim. Besides offering perfect Vim emulation, it's packed with incredible features.

For instance, I can now use Vim-style keybindings right here in Telegram – something that wouldn't be possible without Emacs. As a result, even die-hard Vim users might be forced to run Vim inside Emacs for good unicode support or to get Vim editing style everywhere! I'd like to invite you all, especially Vim/Neovim users, to try Emacs. It's a very powerful editor that you can mold to your workflow.

And regarding the editor wars? I have to side with the wisdom of Spacemacs:

The best editor is neither Emacs nor Vim, it's Emacs and Vim!

🚀 Take your terminal experience to the next level!

Bitlbee brings IM platforms such as WhatsApp, Telegram etc. to IRC client. It works as a gateway between IRC and other chat platforms. If you prefer IRC clients and don't want to install extra apps (or if you, like me, want to chat within Emacs), then this might be useful to you. Bitlbee brings all your chats into one interface. You can also use Pidgin to chat on multiple platforms with one client.

My situation after using Emacs for a few months. Don't use Emacs!

Two very useful motion keys in the Vim editing style are f and t.

f - jumps to a specific character to the right (cursor lands on the character)

t - jumps till (just before) a character to the right

For Example:
- To delete everything up to quotation mark: dt"
- To jump to next comma: f,

Reverse Motion:
F - jumps to character to the left
T - jumps till character to the left

These motion keys are very helpful. They provide precise navigation and editing within lines. You can easily delete/copy something till a char, or jump to it.
