I’ll be giving a couple of lectures/seminars this week in the Twin Cities. The first is tonight at the U of M (topic: Selenium), the second will be Saturday morning (topic: Vim). See here for announcements about future talks and materials from talks past.

That’s cool. I use Selenium to fill out my timesheet in, like, eight seconds. How’d your talk go? Any good / challenging questions?

Yes, there were some excellent questions! One idea that came up was creating a custom Format for other Selenium-like Web testing frameworks.

You know, it was really yasnippet which pushed me over to emacs for a couple of months’ trial after what, maybe 8 or 9 years of vim.
What’s keeping me there is the consistency of the editor with the scripting language. If you can even call it that, given that the editor is written in the same language…

yasnippet looks awesome! It’s amazing how TextMate has influenced other text editors. I notice there are some snippets-like plugins for Vim, too; slippery snippets is one.
