      I am trying to help with vis and it is a lot of fun to use. Aside from things where I really need neovim (because of large plugins), I use vis every day. Sam and ACME (and whole Plan9 for that matter) have the biggest problem with being too GUI oriented. They are from times when we discovered a mouse and then decided we need to use it for everything. Thirty years down the line we know better: we don’t.

        …no, I definitely meant dmenu. sandy has keybindings that bring up (by default) various dmenu prompts as a substitute for the usual "command mode".

        : or M-x to bring up a command prompt, C-\ for a "pipe to" prompt, M-\ for a sed prompt… you get the idea.

        st is just the suckless terminal emulator; sandy can be run from any terminal emulator.
