What is Reddit's opinion of Vifm?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

vifm can be used like ranger's column view (:set millerview) but in my experience it is quite a bit faster and more flexible (you can have a tab with traditional dual pane, one with a single millerview pane, etc). It also has more features (browse the vifm manual) and has a very vim-like philosophy to configuration and control (which fits well in my vim-addled mind).

mpv with the gallery view plugin makes for a great video/image previewer

for everything else i use vifm

In case you won't fix the theme: in addition to normal redirections (2> /dev/null) you can use <code>%i</code> macro in corresponding commands of Vifm to suppress error messages.

Details:

• terminal: iTerm2
• music player: mps-youtube
• file manager: vifm

As you can tell by my bar, I'm using Opera Neon as my browser. As for the wallpaper, I don't have the specific link for it. I'll find it and post as soon as I can.

Mind that this isn't really about Vim and there is a dedicated site for Vifm usage questions at https://q2a.vifm.info/

See docs on client-server functionality similar to Vim's which allows running :colorscheme remotely.

See <code>:help vifm-:set</code>:

- nooption - turn option off

Which in this case becomes:

:set nodotfiles

But if it's part of vifmrc, just comment it out, as was already suggested.

Look at <code>:help vifm-'statusline'</code>. %{expr} expands an expression and expressions can contain environment variables, so you can add %{$HOSTNAME} to get host name.

Or insert $HOSTNAME or system('hostname') into the value of 'statusline' using something like this in vifmrc:

let &statusline .= system('hostname')

system() can appear in %{expr}, but then it will be called on statusbar redraw for no good reason.

It's a bit of a different workflow, but I like to use netrw with vinegar and fzf for fuzzy matching. For more heavy lifting, I'll turn to tmux with a command line file manager like vifm
