Linting your code, the vanilla way

Linting your code, the vanilla way

You may want a linter plugin to lint your code in Vim but you probably don't need it. At least try the built-in way before jumping on the plugin bandwagon.

Defining makeprg

autocmd FileType <filetype> setlocal makeprg=<external command>

This autocommand tells Vim to use <external command> when invoking :make % in a <filetype> buffer. You can add as many similar lines as needed for other languages.

Keepass file format explained

Keepass file format explained

I’m currently working (I’m just at the beginning, and I’m quite slow) on a personal project that will use Keepass files (kdb and kdbx).
I tried to find some documentation about .kdb and .kdbx format, but I didn’t find anything, even in the Keepass official website. I you want to know how these file formats are structured, you must read Keepass’s source code. So I wrote this article that explains how Keepass file format are structured, maybe it will help someone.

KeeAgent (for KeePass) on Bash on Windows / WSL (2) - KeePass as an SSH agent

Update (March 2023) (Last checked: Oktober 2024)

Side note: The latest edge build of KeeAgent plugin offers an option for creating a WSL compatible socket. This would be very handy. I already tried to use that socket, but the socket file is currently empty and ssh inside WSL 2 is unable to use it. This appears to be a very new, unreleased and unstable feature. I will follow the development of it and when it finally works (well, for me) I will update this HOWTO. But until then, please use the proven wsl-ssh-agent/npiperelay.exe approach below.

Thanks to the instructions for WSL 2 of the wsl-ssh-agent project, KeeAgent works great in WSL 2 now: https://github.com/rupor-github/wsl-ssh-agent#wsl-2-compatibility The approach uses minimal and well-maintained tools.

Mutt + isync mbsync + gmail + multiple accounts.

Mutt + isync multiple accounts Unfinished

This is the setup that I use for mutt, I have two google domain account (read as gmail) and an institution where I work and study account. This means I have two gmail accounts and one outlook 365 account that i want to sync and read via mutt.

I want to store all my email locally as I travel a lot and will be in countries without easy internet access. For this I use mbsync (iSync). As it can handle multiple account types easily and efficently.

The setup works this way

[Remote Mail Servers] <= mbsync => [Local Mail Folders]
