I often use only the curser to code. I prefer to drag and drop letters from a virtual keyboard into my IDE.

I used to work with a guy who would, genuinely, use the mouse to copy and paste individual characters.

You mean like we all did if you’re like me and started writing code in late 80s to mid 2000s?

Fucking amateurs…

MyNameIsRichard@lemmy.ml · 7 pts · 1y (6 replies)

Yeah, but to fair, we had comprehensive manuals.

You must not have coded for DOS.

MyNameIsRichard@lemmy.ml · 3 pts · 1y (1 reply)

At home, Atari ST and at work IBM System/38 where the manuals had their own office.

MangoCats@feddit.it · 2 pts · 1y

I had an Atari 800, and the manual for it was pretty complete.

At office in 1991 I started programming for IBM PCs in DOS, that was a big step into the void.

MangoCats@feddit.it · 2 pts · 1y

In the late 80s there were no man pages, we had a 50 page paper manual - and it was mostly useless.

A) nixCraft could tell it's vim from a mere look – in which case they're a "psychopath" themselves.

B) this is completely made up.

C) It's an obvious joke.
