After some time living with Gimp/Krita etc. you will learn to do the things you did with Photoshop. It does takes some time and research/learning. I was real comfy with PS and do miss it but the more I’ve gone without, the more I’ve found ways to tackle the things I need to do with alternatives.
@[email protected] the way to to use this is with an org-headline or task. For example you have an org document with “*TODO Write 500 words”. When you start the task ‘M-x-org-clock-in’ whilst your cursor is on the headline and when you finish ‘M-x-org-clock-out’. You’ll see a timer running in the modeline and It’ll take care of the properties for you on completion.
I use Ctrl-w-c (it’s on the same side of the keyboard) or space-b-k. I’m sure you could you set your own convienient shortcut, it’s Emacs after all.
Nice work :) The only kind of light theme I could possibly go for is something a bit like this…
Use it everyday and you just pick things up over time, you don’t need to know everything. Make your terminal pretty colours. Fetishize about keyboards and the simplicity of plain text.
The keybinds you can set up in e.g Ranger for navigating or moving files are incredibly fast and easy. Sure you could just use shell commands/aliases etc. but the visual representation of the file system that a TUI provides, I find really useful.
