@movq, maybe you can help me with this. I want to place the `vim` cursor at the end of the first line on replies, and forks. I have tried adding to this to `jenny`'s configuration:
```
"editor": "vim \"+normal $\"",

But that doesn't work. How would you go about it?

- 1 cup of your favourite protein (or an egg), grilled, or fried with a little of olive oil.

- No added sugars. If it is sweet, make it have fibre.
- No added salt (or very little and ionised), as salt is everywhere.

Having used---and still using---1Password (a password manager) for many years, I have gone through a few stages of disliking/frustration with it.

It is, more often than I would like to, telling me to configure it when I did so from day one. My open support ticket isn't going too far either.
