I made a similar switch and now use CLion instead of pure vim.

For a long time I thought I would miss vim editing experience but IdeaVim is the best vim emulation plugin I've ever seen and I hardly can remember a vim feature that is missing in IdeaVim.

Though I have to accept occasional UI freezes and huge memory consumption of CLion.

Why would I need a fish if I already have cod? ;)

Actually when I started this project I used fish as my main shell on laptop and first versions of cod did support fish, but then I decided to focus bash/zsh as they look more popular.

I still want to add fish support when I have some time though. It doesn't look complicated.

On my Christmas holidays I built a little tool that does similar things.

Features I wanted to include originally were

   1 shell completion autogeneration from `--help` texts;
   2 support bash/zsh/fish;
   3 support toml-like description of command arguments.

At the moment I have a tool that generates completions from `--help` messages and supports bash/zsh. I use it daily and it makes me little bit happier.

Thanks. Hope you find it helpful.

Regarding homebrew, I haven't thought about it yet. It's first public release and I wanted to get some feedback about project idea.

Hope it will work for you. I tested it on a bunch of machines, but it is full of shell magic and I can't be sure enough :)

Also if you decide to continue to use it you might want to make some configuration so cod doesn't annoy you to learn system commands like `git` (which probably have good completion by your shell already).

I've been using my own orgmode plugin for SublimeText [1] for a several years.

It doesn't have all the features emacs has, but I'm quite happy with it for personal notes and simple TODOs.

There is another plugin for SublimeText [2] but apparently I like it less :)

Is there a way to install nix into home folder (suppose I don't have sudo on server). I spend some time recently trying to setup nix in such environment and failed. I ended up compiling recent versions of neovim and tmux myself.
