The lack of a Tab key is a radical political statement
Haha not sure what statement that is, mind to elaborate? I'm intrigued.
Tab is on ESC with space as modifier. I rarely use Tab, indention is mapped to leader + < or > in vi*.
An eternal argument by programmers about whether to use tabs or spaces to indent code, because across editors, a Tab is a single character and may show up differently than multiple spaces. Spaces, though, take longer to enter which others see as a was off time and energy. Needing to use a modifier to access Tab is not for me. It saves so much time in bash.
You're sounding a bit like Richard Hendricks here.
Yes, that’s when it went mainstream
