^[ will change your life -- you don't have to move your left hand up to hit the escape key!
- jperras 10y agoI've considered it, but I've spent the last ~10 years of my life learning and using Vim with esc ingrained into my brain. I've managed to retrain some combinations by sheer force of will and major effort, but I think I might be too far down the rabbit hole for Esc.
- Veen 10y agoI've been trying out jj as escape, but I keep forgetting to use it.
- jperras 10y agoIMO that's a terrible escape sequence.
- Veen 10y agoI agree for the most part. But on the Mac keyboard the Escape key is tiny and way off the home row. C-[ is awkward and there's only a small control key in the left side so I miss it all the time (my pinkies aren't good at hitting the right key for some reason.) I've remapped Caps Lock to Control and that's working out better.
