Random question, do many people use parinfer? I've been happily using it for years now but someone mentioned to me yesterday that the repository is archived and mentions it's just a proof of concept in the github, which was making me wonder about if I should swap to paredit
yeah that's what I saw yesterday, I use it in cursive and I'm very happy with it, but surprised it's been archived etc
Do people use the original implementation? Also there's a tendency in this ecosystem to write libraries that can be "done", which to be honest I like 😃
oh I agree, I much prefer stable libraries that are considered finished, but it just struck me as odd that it still mentioned it was a proof of concept etc on there. I think the algorithm from there is used in the implementation of the editor plugins though
@me1763 I used to use Parinfer a lot but I eventually just stopped and went back to Paredit on its own. I got frustrated with multi-line pastes getting their structure messed up with Parinfer unless I always remembered to switch modes.
pez
has poured a lot of time and effort into implementing a Parinfer mode in Calva and I think he finally concluded it just wasn't possible to make it work in the context of how VS Code does things, so I suspect Parinfer is going to be more usable/successful in some editors rather than others...?
