<p>I write prose/poetry in Rich Text Files (RTF) and I write code in plaintext.</p> <p>I write prose/poetry in Rich Text Files (RTF) and I write code in plaintext.</p>
<p>When it comes to RTF editing, I normally use Microsoft Wordpad on Windows and (prefer it to using) Libreoffice on everything else. I like RTF because editors handle everything for me - changing the font and indentations and everything is very easy - and because despite its proprietary-ness it's well supported and converts to plaintext relatively easily.</p> <p>When it comes to RTF editing, I normally use Microsoft Wordpad on Windows and (prefer it to using) Libreoffice on everything else.

<p>When it comes to code, I only use Linux/UNIX/something with a console. I've tried coding in IDEs many times and every time I've been disappointed. I'm not used to using my mouse when I code, and when I acclimate I still don't like it. Lately I've been writing C and Python (I'm writing this HTML document on Windows 7's Notepad but I don't consider HTML to be code) and when I write both I use "ne", the Nice Editor. It's simple and it uses a lot of common keyboard shortcuts. I avoid (but don't prohibit myself from) lines of code longer than 80 characters. I use tabs for indentation and I use a tab length of 3. I never use hard word wraps on plaintext if I can catch it and I don't normally use soft word-wrapping in code.</p> <p>When it comes to code, I only use Linux/UNIX/something with a console.

<p>My preferred encoding is UTF-8. I don't have a particular reason why, it's just a common standard. I disagree with emoji's inclusion in Unicode (and *especially* agree with <i>how</i> they're being added). ASCII will always hold a place in my heart (and a chart will always hold a place on my wall) but I write enough Japanese to rarely use it.</p> <p>My preferred encoding is UTF-8.

<p>I like Emacs for its use of Lisp (which I think is very fun to work in) and I respect Vim but think it's a little weird. I have to search up how to exit either every time I'm dropped into one of the two. When I use stock systems I use nano until I install ne. I'm not yet sure how to use ed.</p> <p>I like Emacs for its use of Lisp (which I think is very fun to work in) and I respect Vim but think it's a little weird.

<p>These are just my opinions if anyone's wondering, none of which I'm particularly passionate about. Edit how you want, produce what you want.</p> <p>These are just my opinions if anyone's wondering, none of which I'm particularly passionate about. Edit how you want, produce what you want.</p>
