Will this project support MonoDevelop 7.0? #42

Open TW-OY opened 7 years ago

TW-OY commented 7 years ago

As we know, the Visual Studio for Mac is launched. But for now I can't find any Vim extension for this new IDE. What only I can find after I search on Google is this plugin. I've tried install this manually, but seems it only supports MonoDevelop 6.0. I really hope that it will support MonoDevelop 7.0 and then I can use Vim on the new Visual Studio for Mac. Thanks mate~

I don't have a Mac or Visual Studio for Mac so unless MD 7 is released for Linux or someone else who has that can do the port while keeping backwards compatibility with MD 6 it won't happen, sorry.

TW-OY commented 7 years ago

Oh, I see. Anyway, thanks mate!

Would updating to the Alpha channel of Xamarin Studio (or MonoDevelop) work? I know that's the only way you can have both VS for Mac and Xamarin Studio installed on a machine, so maybe it uses MD 7. I'll have to test this. Not sure if MonoDevelop is the same as I don't use that. Just an idea.

I do hope to see this add-in available for VS for Mac. It's currently the only thing holding me back from using it.

Actually I was mistaken when closing #54, the website is again outdated (http://www.monodevelop.com/download/) as 7.0 is available on MD flatpak.

I will try if I can push a release to 7.x channel soon.

Looking at the changes between 6.0 and 7.0 it seems this add-in would require a major refactor. I suggest looking at the XSVim add-in by @nosami, particularly the 7.0 branch at this point.

Yeah. Xsvim works with visual studio for Mac, but right now you need to install manually via the mpack file on the github release page

Thank you for the suggestion. I'm trying XSVim out and it seems to work quite well. Somehow my google searches never led me to XSVim. It's a pain trying to use a text editor without Vim functionality. :)
