Keyboard Shortcuts

1 Basic Editor Features

k : switchs to INSERT : mode (same as key i in vanilla vim)

Q : quits current vim window (same as command :q in vanilla vim)

S : saves the current file (same as command :w in vanilla vim)

IMPORTANT

Since the i key has been mapped to k, every command (combination) that involves i should use k instead (for example, ciw should be ckw).

Customized Vertical Cursor Movement

This NeoVim configuration includes a customized vertical cursor movement tailored for Colemak users. It can be located in cursor.vim, and it serves as an alternative to the "number + up/down" key combination.

In order to move the cursor up x lines, press the [ key, and treat the middle row of the Colemak keyboard layout ("arstdhneio") as number 1 to 0. Press the numbers that you'd like your cursor to move (x) and press the space bar.

To move the cursor down, press the ' key instead of the [ key, and the rest would be the same.

Example:

Note: As of now, you may only move vertically up to 199 lines with this key configuration!
