Hey fedi,

So, with the news about #vim, I'm considering branching out and trying different editors/toolchains. Thing is, I've got a #vimwiki that keeps my brain running, a second one that manages the massive project that is #thisOldClownHouse and a third that is my website.

I'm hopeful that a non-slop fork of vim is in the future, but I can't maintain one, so I'm wanting to learn about my options.

I could use recommendations of things to explore. Optimally tools where the maintainers have stated a policy of not accepting slop, but I'm willing to risk things where we don't have *known* slop being introduced by maintainers.

I don't need an all-in-one solution necessarily, but I do need both a text editor and a wiki solution. There needs to be some tooling from which I can render a basic static site from the wiki format. I can shell script just enough to ease the practice of pushing files through a series of tools, but I typically need some handholding, so I'd prefer something that's already pretty well established.

I'm not currently looking to leave the terminal, no shade to gui's, just not what I'm looking for right now.

edit: Oh, and I'm on #openBSD, so preferably something that's already in ports, but I'd still like to know about small projects too.
