Mun is not dynamic, however it does not have string support afaik.

Kotlin and Swift may be better candidates than these scripting languages for my imagined usecase.

Come to think of it, maybe I don’t have a point other then there is so many scripting language’s inspired by rust that is dropping a major convenience feature, that I am surprised is negotiable (inferred typing ).

Also has pattern matching which I should also have mentioned in my top level post.

At first glance it appears to be object oriented, which is against preference but not a deal breaker.

However error case looks to be try catch which is a deal breaker.

I don’t understand why… inferred typing is nearly as easy to use while being more robust.

For me the biggest gap in programming languages is a rust like language with a garbage collector, instead of a borrow checker.

Rust has a lot of features that should be strongly considered for the next generation of programming languages such as

result/sum types

Inferred typing

Not object oriented or overly prescriptive with functional programming.

I think the closest language to filling that gap is occaml (I am not familiar with it).

I have coworker's that are more skilled in domain logic that can write basic self contained programs, but stuff like traits, OOP functional programming is a bridge too far.

I feel like a language that fills that gap could be useful, context is a manufacturing ERP system.

The find and replace is more at folder level with vscode previews only terminal equivalent I know is serpl

However the larger attempt and redo problem you highlighed is mitigated in a modal editor that does selection first (not vim) instead of action so you get a preview of what you will delete before hitting it, you can also expand it.

I did give up vim for the same reasons, but I am happy with Helix.

I won’t deny that I still make lots of errors, I still use vscode for other features like folder search and replace, easier diff comparisons

One thing I would suggest is that if you can split the space bar, it’s soo much real estate for one key, even if you split into 4 keys with 2 keys being space.

I have a split space with shift mapped into one of the keys so I hold shift with my thumb much easier then pinky and makes touch typing flow better.

You need a keyboard you can reprogram however unless you find a physical keyboard with those.

I use a dygma defy that has those keys programmed in.
