started a year ago after years of modern IDE, just to use #orgmode

by now i still see the usage of emacs as no way to be my IDE of choice, because it would need many customisations.
for org tasks it is great, but to code, OMG there is so much shit to do to have something decent.

I’ve been using Helix Editor for some months now and love it.
in reply to Aral Balkan

very interesting, Aral. It seems to be licensed under MPL. Nice free software.

@tykayn

in reply to Ade Malsasa Akbar

MIT license? So it allows building a proprietary product on top of it. Nice business opportunity :-/ @aral @tykayn
in reply to 🍒🌳 Hartmut Goebel

It’s under MPL, not MIT. Which means, yes, it is still (by design of the license) open to corporate capture and enclosure. Ideally, it would be under GPL but I’m not going to fight that battle right now as I have too much on. Perhaps someone else can take it on and mention the pros/cons? :)

Not sure which radio to check: Atari XT 8088 (must have been close to this one: ataripc.net/pc3-8088/) with a Bernstein EGA monitor and a 20 MB hard drive. I remember having used a special driver to steal some kB from the EGA turning it into a CGA, so I ended up with 640k FREE RAM when the system was loaded. Ought to be enough for everybody, someone™ said in 1992…

Oh, and my floppies had 800k (punching a hole into the 360s and using another driver) 🙈

in reply to Ade Malsasa Akbar

Though it was just their PC (well, even that used a couple of original Atari hardware). The Atari ST I just gaped on open-mouthed at a friends place, seeing its musical capacities…

Fun fact: the first ones I've used were Commodore's C16/C64/C4+. A friend had the latter one, but no "hard money" left for a printer, so he built an adapter for his electrical type-writer's line buffer. He demonstrated that once to me: machine gun fire sound, poor grandies were running for the shelters 🙈
