Navigating the modes of Vim

This diagram illustrates navigating through Vim’s modes. It was built factoring Vim 9 (i.e., all its modes, including up to two new modes, cr and cvr, in November 2023). Information about the state() and 'showmode' is provided too.

SVG version

Some features are only available in the SVG version. It is not provided directly from within this gist’s files because SVGs do not always play nicely in GitHub (particularly, refusing to display embedded fonts).

The SVG version includes hover text help, which shows pertinent information about the underlying key, command, mode, etc.

Connect host and VM when using a MACVTAP interface

NB: The following is only of interest if you want to share the host network with your virtual machine. The most common way this gets implemented is by setting up a bridge which includes the physical interface. Using a [MACVTAP] inerface is suposed to be more efficient, since it avoids the additional bridge in the network setup.

In this gist, we extend the information provided in the documenation on linux virtual interfaces.

In the following, we assume you host interface is eth0. IP addresses used:

host: 198.51.100.50/24
virtual machine: 198.51.100.198/24
default gateway: 198.51.100.254

About

I faced bandwidth issues between a WG Peer and a WG server. Download bandwidth when downloading from WG Server to WG peer was reduced significantly and upload bandwidth was practically non existent.
I found a few reddit posts that said that we need to choose the right MTU. So I wrote a script to find an optimal MTU.
Ideally I would have liked to have run all possible MTU configurations for both WG Server and WG Peer but for simplicity I choose to fix the WG Server to the original 1420 MTU and tried all MTUs from 1280 to 1500 for the WG Peer.

Testing

On WG server, I started an iperf3 server
On WG peer, I wrote a script that does the following:
- wg-quick down wg0
Edit MTU in the /etc/wireguard/wg0.conf file

Install Rio on K3S running in WSL2 on Windows

Info

K3S is a certified kubernetes distro for edge and other scenarios
Rio simplifies application development on kubernetes
WSL2 run linux on windows, nicer and more integrated than a traditional vm on hyper-v

Prerequisites

Windows 10 with WSL2 set as default

	---Utility for keymap creation.
	---@param lhs string
	---@param rhs string\|function
	---@param opts string\|table
	---@param mode? string\|string[]
	local function keymap(lhs, rhs, opts, mode)
	opts = type(opts) == 'string' and { desc = opts }
	or vim.tbl_extend('error', opts --[[@as table]], { buffer = bufnr })
	mode = mode or 'n'
	vim.keymap.set(mode, lhs, rhs, opts)
