what's the problem with "if context == vim -> show ESC". And that was at the far left as it has always been.

Tell that to Blackberry, or those Microsoft tablets.

That would actually feel pretty useless. I'd always have my hands closer to the mouse or touchpad, and it feels really awkward to reach out to the screen.
- falcolas 10y agoVim isn't an app - I'm guessing the context would have to be identified by Terminal and passed up the chain. Terminal isn't always the best at identifying the current running process for its window/tab names; relying on it to properly identify that Vim is running doesn't sound like a winning strategy. > And that was at the far left as it has always been. No, it's indented by half the width of the tilde key, whereas it was directly above the tilde key before. > Tell that to Blackberry, or those Microsoft tablets. Those are touchscreen devices, where you can touch the actual controls on the screen. I haven't yet seen another laptop with a touchbar which kept the touchbar for more than one generation. > I'd always have my hands closer to the mouse or touchpad Then you could continue to use the mouse and touchpad. The bottom of the screen is only about another inch or two above the touchbar as it stands now, and much more flexible in terms of what can appear there (such as website controls).
