- jamesgeck0 10y agoVimperator is gonna break for good by the end of the year. It's been encouraging that the VimFX developer has been so involved in the Web Extension discussions about keyboard input [1]. Unfortunately, the last few updates don't look super promising [2]. 1. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1215061 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1215061 2. https://github.com/akhodakivskiy/VimFx/issues/860 https://github.com/akhodakivskiy/VimFx/issues/860
- midgetjones 10y agoOh gosh :(
- ronjouch 10y agoVimFx is enough for me, maybe it's for you too. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/vimfx/ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/vimfx/
- midgetjones 10y agoThanks! I hadn't seen it, but Vimperator was what finally got me to switch from Chrome/Vimium. If it's customizable enough that I can remap `d` to close a tab and `u` to reopen, I'll be happy... but then I guess I don't need to be happy, as I won't have a choice soon enough :)
- majewsky 10y agoOh, I feel you. I had a hard time remapping Vimperator "Ctrl-u/d" to VimFX "u/d" and Vimperator "u/d" to VimFX "x/X" in my muscle memory. On the other hand, some parts of VimFX's language are more logical, e.g. "yf" instead of ";y" to select a link into the clipboard.
- nextos 10y agoWhat's the subset of Vimperator's features supported by VimFx? I am for example quite reliant on .vimperatorrc for custom commands and set! about:config preferences.
