It&#x27;s great they mentioned vis in there. Its multiple selection mode is absolutely fantastic and now I feel like I can&#x27;t live without it.<p>Though I still some bits from vim like the m and t operators, and search &amp; replacing with s&#x2F;&lt;search&gt;&#x2F;&lt;replace&gt;&#x2F;g instead of x&#x2F;&lt;search&gt;&#x2F;c&#x2F;&lt;replace&gt;&#x2F;; I feel like its original dev went a bit too far into sticking with Rob Pike&#x27;s structural regular expressions that he purposely omitted those bits. Well, and the fact it alas does not have a server architecture thing - it will be great to have buffers!
