   It was a huge honour for me today with Raphael to posthumously hand over the European #SFSAward 2024 to #vim developer Bram Moolenaar for his invaluable contributions to the #FreeSoftware community.

   If you are a #vim user, have been an #vim user, or admire Bram's work, please boost this message.

     Would also like to thank Bram's family, old co-workers, and friends, who talked to me before the awards to provide some additional background.

     @kirschner Everyone is a vim user. Some love it, others just opened it once, but don't know how to exit! 😁

     Kidding aside, great recognition. Thankful for Bram and his legacy.

     Ascii Grumpy Cat? How you do that?

     My vim's :smile just gives me the Hitchhiker's Guide ear-thumber. (Still makes me laugh, tho :>)
