That reads a bit like vim command mode
Is it meant to pretty much to do same?
(trying to not say 'emulate' in this foreign community as a vim user ;-) )
I think it's supposed to guess what command you want from context, but I didn't check carefully.
Yeah, it seems cool
Just really reminded me of vim command mode and still not sure, if it's kinda the same thing or if I'm completely off
I'd say completely off. 🙃 Vim's command mode is more like Emacs's execute-extended-command.
Hehe, I see, thanks ;-)
If you check into it, let us know what you find out! I have too much going on right now.
@PuercoPop I assume you planned to post:

Indeed, but at least from piefed social that is what I posted. Are you not seeing that?
