My day job now involves a lot of Ansible, and I’ve been struggling to get the right balance here. My day job now involves a lot of Ansible, and I’ve been struggling to get the right balance here.
Much of the conflict stems from whether to use [[file:ha-programming.org::*Tree Sitter][Tree Sitter]] for the YAML mode or not. Much of the conflict stems from whether to use [[file:ha-programming.org::*Tree Sitter][Tree Sitter]] for the YAML mode or not.

Moving by lines is our default navigation mode, but for Yaml and Python, that doesn’t have s-expressions, we need something to move around by blocks. The [[https://codeberg.org/ideasman42/emacs-spatial-navigate][spatial navigation]] project attempts to address this. The problem is how to bind the functions.

The obvious keybindings are ~M-h/j/k/l~ … but that is used … well, somewhat. In org files, this is a way to move the outline of subtrees around. Useful, and =spatial-navigate= wouldn’t be helpful in org files anyway. The obvious keybindings are ~M-h/j/k/l~ … but that is used … well, somewhat.
