Use prefixed commands rather than flags #63

Closed m1foley closed 8 years ago

m1foley commented 9 years ago

fugitive.vim has easy-to-remember commands like :Gstatus, :Gcommit and :Gremove. If simplenote.vim prefixed all commands with :Sn (for example) I wouldn't have to call :help to remember which flag I want. The commands would be easy to remember, and if I forgot I could simply type :Sn and autocomplete to :Snlist, :Snremove, :Sntag etc.

I can give this a shot myself when I have time, if you agree that this is worth doing.

Alternate prefixes would be :Simplenote and :S. I assume the former is too long, and the latter doesn't have good autocompletion.

Hi. It's certainly worth thinking about and I'm not against it.
Although I think which approach is better pretty much boils down to user preference. The only potential downside I see is being overrun with autocomplete commands (I do find myself overrun with ones beginning with "G"), but I don't currently have many beginning with "S".

Perhaps we could keep both approaches? I'll have more of a think about it tomorrow.

Certainly feel free to have a go at implementing it. That way we can see if there are any downsides, etc.
