Show HN: Fri – distraction-free writing in the terminal
satsumasbloggen.comOf all the software I have written, this may be the one that has been most useful to me personally. If you find it useful as well, I'd love to know. I use Vim + https://github.com/junegunn/goyo.vim. Goyo is wonderful, it's nice to have all your vim config intact. My only confusion is having to :q twice to exit vim :D Thank you for sharing this, it's a beautiful writing experience. And so easy to install, it was straightforward to make it available on a Tilde server for others to try. (one suggestion for the docs: the included man page can be installed systemwide, with "sudo cp fri.1 /usr/share/man/man1/" on Debian systems) Edit: having Hemingway/typewriter mode (disable backspace) available as a shell flag would be wonderful :) Hemingway mode is a good idea! As for the man page, I don't want to recommend anyone to install files manually in /usr. The man page is there mostly in case anybody would want to package fri for a distribution. I have released v1.1.0 with Hemingway mode now.
