In-reply-to » @movq Another feature request: sometimes I start writing a twt but then would like to discard it. It would be great if jeny could detect that I did not wrote (or saved) anything and then discards the twt instead of creating an "empty" one.

@stackeffect@twtxt.stackeffect.de @fastidious@twtxt.net Let me ask you guys a question: What’s your workflow here? You hit the “reply” hotkey, the editor comes up, then what? You start writing and writing and then, at some point, you decide “nah” and just do :q!?

The reason why I’m asking: I think I sometimes hit :w in between. This is kind of muscle memory for me (I’m actually not 100% sure if I do it or not …). So a :q! wouldn’t work for me, because I would accidentally send a half-written twt.

Another thing to consider: Maybe users have configured their editors to do auto-save after a while. 🤔

Either way, I suspect the current way to cancel a twt (saving an empty file) has to stay (whether I implement an additional mechanism to detect “cancel” or not). It is very explicit and the user/editor won’t do it by accident.

So, yeah, what’s your workflow? How do you use it?
