Vim Description

Vim is a text editor that can be configured to create and modify any type of text quickly. It is available as "vi" in most UNIX systems, and with Apple OS X. Vim is multi-level, persistent, and multi-level. It supports hundreds of file formats and programming languages, has a powerful search and replace feature, as well as integration with many other tools. Vim online is a central location for the Vim community to save useful Vim tips. Vim supports plugin-like extensions that enable syntax highlighting, colorization, and other advanced features. These scripts can be uploaded online and maintained. Vim stands for Vi IMproved. It was once called Vi IMitation. However, there have been so many improvements that a new name was necessary. Vim is a text editor that includes almost all commands from Unix's program "Vi".

Neovim Reviews
Neovim
API is first-class. It can be discovered, versioned, and documented. MessagePack structured communication allows extensions in any language. Remote plugins can be run as co-processes safely and asynchronously. GUIs, IDEs and web browsers can embed Neovim as an editor/script host. It works everywhere with one build-type and one command. Modern terminal features include cursor styling, focus events and bracketed paste. Strong defaults and a built-in terminal emulator. Compatible with Vim's editing mode and Vimscript version 1. If you are already using Vim, start with :help vim-from-vim. The current stable version is 0.5 (RSS). The roadmap contains information about the current state of affairs and future plans. Neovim has 30% less source code than Vim. This allows for new applications to be developed without compromising Vim’s traditional roles. Lua is already included, but Vimscript has the most advanced Vimscript engine (which includes an AST-producing Parser).

Atom
(3 Ratings)
Atom is a hackable text editor built on Electron and inspired by our favorite editors. It is customizable but still easy to use the default configuration. Although a text editor is the heart of a developer’s toolbox, it doesn’t always work by itself. With the GitHub package, you can access Git and GitHub from Atom. You can create new branches, stage and commit, push, pull, resolve merge conflicts and view pull requests all from your editor. Atom already includes the GitHub package, so you are ready to go. Atom is compatible with all operating systems. It can be used on OS X, Windows or Linux. You can search for and install new packages, or create your own right within Atom. Atom makes it easier to write code faster thanks to its intelligent and flexible autocomplete. Browse and open files, whole projects, or multiple projects from one window.

    Advanced text editor

    Date: Apr 12 2022

    Summary: I have used Vim for a long time for UNIX systems but couple of years back shifted to it on Windows as well. Reasons being no other free text editor was able to open large size log files. Vim handles any size and format files you throw into it.

    Positive: Free & Open source.
    Can be used to open all text formats and large file sizes.
    Supports almost all popular programming languages.
    Extensive Plugin system and third party integrations with IDEs and other tools.
    Advanced search capabilities.
    Cross platform availability.

    Negative: No cons, its a simple yet advanced FOSS utility must have for power users.
