For a second there, I thought that when entering readline vi mode, it doesn’t put you in insertion mode, but command instead.

It’s actually another bug in nomad where an ESC-Z is sent to the program in error after switching out of nomad’s movement mode.

Terminals are a mine field. Oh well, this is easy enough to fix anyway.

I really want to add a feature to nomad that enables scrolling on sub terminals that are not currently focussed 0 kind of like macOS where you can scroll any window without focussing on it.

Ah. Apparently, readline has a setting called horizontal-scroll-mode, which can be enabled so that readline will only use a single line. I’ve created my .inputrc!

set editing-mode vi
set horizontal-scroll-mode On

So I think it might not be bash itself handling this behavior, but rather readline and apparently you can change this to something else :O

I notice that when you’re typing a command into bash, it will send a \r when the cursor reaches the edge of the terminal, sending it to the beginning of the line…

…which beans a really long command will overlap itself eventually.

Why, bash why.

There’s a bug in my terminal where scrolling through command history in bash causes some weird scrolling errors. I think even gnome-terminal has this problem.

Let’s do this.

I gave up after like 5mins trying to make dubstep 😅

I feel like making dubstep…?

Gah. Here I am late at night typing thing. ffs.

Every morning I wonder why I want to sleep more, and every evening I find out why.

I’m starting to annoy my mum and step dad by being a classic grumpy teen, despite definitely being 26.

Maybe I should go back to London soon.

Anyway. Time for bed, guten nacht.
