Why not use neovim in windows

Things I like neovim better

  1. The tab-complete options are shown as horizontal line just above the modeline, really cool.
  2. Yanking to windows clipboard seemlessly in the backgound, saves me a lot of mouse clicks.
  3. The :checkhealth command

Things I don't like

  1. filenames for nvim-qt.exe wrapper must be sperated by ****double double dash**** with its own options… like this:

    c:\opt\neovim\nvim-qt.exe --maximized -- -- foobar.txt

Things I can not live with

  1. The anonymous buffer is changed issue. I am not sure how to reproduce it, anyway it is really annoying to run into it. It prevent the process from exiting, neither :q! Nor windows close button works. I have to kill the nvim process in windows task manager, then kill the nvim-qt wrapper.

Fido-mode

Today, I've just discovered the Fido mode, a modified `icomplete` minor mode. `icomplete` used to be one of my favorite mode days back to my XEmacs days. Pros: It is way fast. It is much more smart in terms of find the complete candidate that you want mostly.  Cons: It does not integrate well enough with tramp yet.    `fido-mode` is a core package of Emacs 27+, and there's a vertical version available after Emacs 28+ named `fido-vertical-mode`. UPDATE: I am back with ido now
