Vim Clutch – A hardware pedal for improved text editing (2012)
- hoosieree 9y agoMap to control and you got yourself an Emacs pedal.
- mfrw 9y agoI think emacs needs it more than vim. :)
- Avamander 9y agoThat reminded me of this greentext: https://i.imgur.com/WLzeQMj.png https://i.imgur.com/WLzeQMj.png
- rzzzt 9y agoDo you need to double clutch before shifting a row?
- OskarS 9y agoIt's totally a thing: https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/FootSwitches https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/FootSwitches
- icholy 9y agoI tried this a few years back and really wanted it to work. Ended up ditching it though. My foot is too slow.
- hannnoi 9y ago> I tried this a few years back and really wanted it to work. Ended up ditching it though. My foot is too slow. It seems like riding a bicycle or typing on a new keyboard. At some point, it becomes natural. On a side note, I wonder since USB input is polled whether or not it would make sense to look for a toggle in the inputs rather than using two switches.

- LastZactionHero 9y agoI was going to say, what's with the Mac Pro tower?!
- hultner 9y agoI still use a Mac Pro tower at home. Put a Sandy Bridge CPU, 32GB ram and SSDs in raid, still runs great today.
- mattnewton 9y agoIt’s a very pretty case and the hardware definitely runs vim fine :D
- ascorbic 9y agoI don't think vim will have changed too much since then.
- dang 9y agoAdded - thanks!
- hawktheslayer 9y agoEven though I would probably never go though the effort of it, I am impressed and love the idea of it. One philosophy that I hear a lot of VIM users prescribing to is don't make too many custom changes to the bash file that you can't use someone else's computer. I wonder if you got used to this setup if you would find yourself pounding the floor on someone else's computer. I drove stick for years and still occasionally find myself with phantom clutch syndrome.
- hoosieree 9y agoI suffer from this "phantom clutch syndrom" myself. Slowing smoothly to a stop and SLAM full on panic stop because I pressed the brake to the floor with my left foot.
- dcchambers 9y agoI broke the (foot activated) parking break or my wife's old car by doing this...slamming on it like it was a clutch. She's never let me live that one down.
- u801e 9y agoI've been driving manual transmission vehicles for around 25 years at this point. It's gotten to the point that when I drive a vehicle with an automatic transmission, I'll actually use the parking brake to hold it in place when stopped at a traffic light (while the car is in neutral). Before I start, I'll put the car into drive, release the parking brake and then press the accelerator to start moving. With a foot operated parking brake, it's sort of like using a clutch when starting :)
- allthenews 9y agoBit of a tangent we're on here, but I wonder if HN disproportionately drives stick.
- eitland 9y agoMany Europeans here I guess. Automatic is frowned upon by many of us ;-)
- platz 9y agoClearly what is needed is not a foot switch, but a true clutch a la piano/sewing pedal. The farther down you press, the bigger the text size. Great for presentations on stage too.
- walshemj 9y agoYou could presumably interface a midi controller to do this
- api_or_ipa 9y agoWhy stop there? Why not grab a MIDI-powered Organ footboard and get a ton of switches? You could probably use a bunch of them for programming macros, like moom layout shortcuts, class skeletons, lock-screen, etc.
- yangyang 9y agoI converted a set of pedals for a dictation machine to work with my Kinesis keyboard. It wasn't as useful as I expected. Having to keep my foot in the same place all the time became quite uncomfortable, and I found that synchronising my foot with my fingers (these pedals were configured as modifiers rather than escape - I mostly use Emacs) was quite difficult.
- Waterluvian 9y agoI've thought about something like this for a long time. Not for coding but pc use and gaming.
- powvans 9y agoI love seeing this. I worked in the university computing department in college and this sort of thing wasn't an uncommon sight under the desks. People also had all manner of exotic keyboards. The most elite setup, as I recall, was the Kinesis Advantage combined with pedals. The keys on the Kinesis are recessed in these sort of cups that your fingers rest above. The idea is that this reduces the distance that your fingers travel moving between rows. I could never get the hang of typing on one of them, but people swore by them. Adding the pedals for shift/ctrl/esc was supposed to further reduce the need to stretch your fingers and get them into awkward positions. People also swore it made them faster and of course it looked and sounded super cool.
- Nelson69 9y agoI'm a longtime Kinesis user and I had the pedals about 15 years back but I never made much use of them. I don't know if the Kinesis reduces the finger movement between rows, but your hands definitely sit in a much more relaxed way. The thumb has quite a bit more responsibility too and you don't do any stretch moves like using the pinky for the twiddle or a lot of control pressing. Love the keyboards. As for the pedals, they are programmable and the general thinking was control/option/alt type configurations for them. I just never got in to heal-toe typing, the pedals got dusty and I never really used them much. Had I actually had CT or something, I think I might have been more motivated to make use of them.
- tedmiston 9y agoI've been eyeballing a Kinesis for a while, but am curious to know what kind of mouse or trackpad you use alongside it — especially if it's something particularly ergonomic, a vertical mouse, etc. I remember seeing someone mount a Magic Trackpad on the blank spot in the middle of the keyboard but am curious what normal mouse usage looks like with one.
- Nelson69 9y agoI used a mighty mouse with it as the last mouse. I've been using a magic trackpad lately. Definitely not the most ergonomic option but I like the hand gestures. Took maybe 3 days to get used to the movement between them mouse and the keyboard. I think it would be more uncomfortable to have one in the middle space in the keyboard, your hands sort of naturally fall away to the side but they have to reach in to the middle space.
- jakelazaroff 9y agoIt's not just speed. This also improves the usability of vim by turning insert mode into a pseudo-mode, which is a mode that requires constant interaction (depressing the pedal) to be maintained. Pseudo-modes are generally much less error prone than normal modes, the canonical example being the shift vs. caps lock keys.
- CrystalGamma 9y agoDo you have any literature on this being called a pseudo-mode and the tradeoffs between it and "real" modes? I am currently pretty interested in these kinds of topics.
- jakelazaroff 9y agoI'm sorry, I don't know of any online resources (and after googling, it seems the more common term is "quasimode") but I can heartily recommend the book The Design of Everyday Things by Donald Norman. It's a seminal book on designing interactions between humans and objects, and was required reading in my human-computer interaction class in college.
- justin_vanw 9y agoWith this contraption you'll be nearly as efficient as out of the box Emacs!
- trishume 9y agoI use a setup that's similar in spirit. My custom keyboard has palm keys (kind of like the https://shop.keyboard.io/ https://shop.keyboard.io/), which I have mapped to control and shift (on a mac). I have a Sublime Text keymap file that has a bunch of vim-like bindings under control, so basically it is like vim but the state of my palms is the editing state, holding one down is movement, both is selection. It's really nice. You can see the keymap here: https://github.com/trishume/SublimeTect/blob/master/Default%20(OSX).sublime-keymap https://github.com/trishume/SublimeTect/blob/master/Default%...
- alschwalm 9y agoThe keyboardio is the only keyboard I know of that has the palm keys, but I've been interested in buying or making a keyboard that has them. Any writup on your build?
- geoka9 9y agoI use the left control key on a full sized desktop keyboard as my "palm" key (I press it with the heel of my left hand). Being an Emacs user, it made my left pinky so much happier. This doesn't work on laptops because of the low profile keys, so I stack some 3M "dual lock" squares on the control key to raise the profile. They can be removed (except for the one glued to key) when I need to close the laptop.
- trishume 9y agoSimilarly, I use the same bindings I mentioned above on my laptop keyboard, and there I have the right command key bound to control. Since it's right next to the spacebar I can easily hold it down with my thumb while using other keys to move around.
- sedachv 9y agoThe Emacs keyboard chords were worked out on keyboards that had the Control keys nearest the Space bar - the intention was that you would use your thumbs to press the Control and Meta keys. Turns out this is really useful not just for Emacs but for any program that uses Control modifier shortcuts. I have not had any hand pain after doing this key remapping on my systems: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14985932 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14985932
- pacmaannn 9y agoGreat idea! I've messed around with things like this in the past, though I've used my pedals for music editing and DJ software. I opened sourced my last attempt, which includes a neat little python GUI to reprogram the keys (https://www.manykey.org/ https://www.manykey.org/). Haven't tried foot keys with an editor, but it seems like once you integrated them into your workflow they would be quite useful.
- stevefeinstein 9y agoThe reason I learned how to use vi was it's ubiquity. If I develop muscle memory which requires carrying around a USB pedal I'm not going to have a good time on any but my own workstation. Not sure it's worth it.
- soperj 9y agoIt's pretty cool, but all i can think of is that I would need different pedals for i, I, a and A, since I use them all about the same depending on where I want to edit.
- jeffamcgee 9y agoI tried something similar to this, but I didn't like it. After using it for a bit, I realized I often use commands other than i to get into insert mode. For example, I may use ci" to edit everything inside a pair of quotation marks. I wrote a bit more about my setup here: https://jeffamcgee.com/using-a-vim-clutch.html https://jeffamcgee.com/using-a-vim-clutch.html
- fiatjaf 9y agoI want videos of people doing this.

- fiatjaf 9y agoThank you.
- danpeddle 9y agohow about a myoelectric muscle sensor instead? something like https://www.sparkfun.com/products/13723 https://www.sparkfun.com/products/13723
- AdmiralAsshat 9y agoLast commit on the repo is 6-7 years ago, so a "(2011)" or "(2012)" tag would probably be apt.
- dang 9y agoAdded. Thanks!
- seniorsassycat 9y agoi is the simplest but not the only way to enter insert mode. o/O for new lines, c/R to replace text. An 'i-esc' foot pedal doesn't grok vi https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1218390/what-is-your-most-productive-shortcut-with-vim/1220118#1220118 https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1218390/what-is-your-mos...
- fsavard 9y agoI too hated the need to press <Esc> all the time when I started with vi. It sounded as bad for wrists as the Ctrl key for Emacs. The trick I've found (I don't remember where) and used ever since is to map the "kj" sequence to <Esc>, since it's otherwise unlikely in normal text. It's just a simple instruction in the vim config: :imap kj <Esc> That foot pedal is a cute project though.
- seniorsassycat 9y agoI use capslock for escape
- mkl 9y agoAlt-l (lowercase L) works out of the box and doesn't move the cursor. I also map a press and release of capslock to escape for when I need that (it's control the rest of the time).
- deleted 9y ago[deleted]
- fsavard 9y agoI just tried this and Alt-l seems to move to the line above (equiv. to Esc+l), Alt-J the line below, and in gvim it produces some accented characters for me. It would have been a good combination for finger movement though.
- api_or_ipa 9y agoRemapping esc with capslock mod has definitely helped me maintain sanity. I'm still using the prev gen MBPs but I can only imagine the frustration the new MBPs introduce by omitting a physical esc key.
- dang 9y agoDiscussed at the time: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4141410 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4141410.
- xstartup 9y agoThe other day at Starbucks, I accidentally stepped on someone's pedal too hard and you don't wanna know what happened next.
- qq66 9y agoI once worked on a piece of lab equipment where I needed to fit a plate into a robotic dispenser and then click the button to "start program." I didn't want to keep switching my hands from the dispenser to the mouse so I wired up a piano pedal to the left mouse button and it improved the ergonomics significantly.
- TheSpiceIsLife 9y agoI've programmed AutoHotKey on my work PC to map pressing both shift keys at the same to double click the left mouse button at the pointer's current location.
- TheSpiceIsLife 9y agoReplying to myself to add: So what I really need then is mouse cursor movement by eye tracking + both-shift-keys for left double click. Why isn't eye tracking for mouse movement a thing yet?
- malexw 9y agoI worked on a project a few years ago to build a system that used eye-tracking for context-sensitive voice commands. Imagine being able to say "zoom in" and have the computer zoom in at the place you're looking. Unfortunately the eye-tracking was never accurate enough for it to provide a good experience.
- tzahola 9y agoBecause your eyes are constantly moving. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saccade https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saccade
- TheSpiceIsLife 9y agoSo I did some clicking and it turns out laptops and monitors are available, as well as a peripheral device, that appears to do eye tracking quite well. https://tobiigaming.com/products/ https://tobiigaming.com/products/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SYwd9Lt1ve4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SYwd9Lt1ve4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6mBlgcnqttg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6mBlgcnqttg Might have to get one of these...
- bringtheaction 9y ago> Has anyone thought of this before? Yes I overheard a conversation between two guys once where one talked about using a hardware pedal with Vim and the other jokingly replied “are you going to install a steering wheel and a gearshift also”. But in all seriousness I think a good pair of pedals could potentially be nice.
- bigbadgoose 9y agoi always thought it would be awesome to switch between dvorak and qwerty using a pedal, where you keep switching between the optimal key layout for the next set of characters
- raihansaputra 9y agouse it with two pedals and you can make a 2 row keyboard, with the bottom row exclusively for space and modifiers
- richard_todd 9y agoIt makes me wonder: Maybe a two-pedal system (ctrl and meta) for Emacs would avoid carpal tunnel issues.
- geoka9 9y agoI described a quick setup that helps me tremendously (see my comment elsewhere in the thread).
- JoshMnem 9y agoThe pedal idea is funny, but there are too many useful ways to enter insert mode (i, I, a, A, o, O, c, C, cc, cw, c2w, cit, ci), vi}c, vf.c, v0c, etc.). It seems like having a pedal for `i` would encourage a way of using vim that avoids the most efficient keybindings. I rarely press the `i` key to enter insert mode.
- femto113 9y agoI had the exact same thought about the "clutch" aspect of this, but am wondering if simply having a foot pedal that issued ESC when tapped could still be of value. On most keyboards the ESC key is the longest reach with my shortest finger so it winds up requiring a wrist motion.
- suprfnk 9y ago> On most keyboards the ESC key is the longest reach with my shortest finger so it winds up requiring a wrist motion. Try to learn using "Ctrl + [" instead of ESC. It helps. http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Avoid_the_escape_key http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Avoid_the_escape_key
- eddyg 9y agoCtrl+C is even easier.
- WorldMaker 9y agoOnly if you don't like/use modern shortcuts for System-wide clipboards.
- punchclockhero 9y agoI map it to Capslock along with Ctrl using xcape. Tap for ESC, hold for Ctrl.
- JoshMnem 9y agoWhen I started using Vim, I found ESC to be too far of a reach and ctrl-[ to be too unfamiliar. I used ctrl-c for years, but that caused muscle memory problems when switching between other editors that use vim keybindings. Eventually, I got used to ESC. I move my hand more than bend my wrist, so it isn't so bad. I hit ESC with my left ring finger. I also try to plan my next keystrokes and/or move my right hand into next position while my left hand reaches for ESC. I've found that moving ctrl to the capslock key also helped reduce wrist motion, though it makes using other people's computers more annoying, since I try to do everything on the keyboard with pure muscle memory.
- tetraodonpuffer 9y agoI have been really tempted by the ergodox ez, but really wish it supported pedal input as that would make a "pedal layer" super easy access. I do play the organ and drums and have been most of my life, so maybe that's why the idea of having additional keys available via pedals is right up my alley :)
- hiaux0 9y agoHey, I have an ergodox ez. I'm wondering what you mean by "pedal layer". Like pressing the pedal would move you to another layer? The ergodox does precisly that and supports up to 32 layers.
- tetraodonpuffer 9y agothat's what I mean, having a pedal connector on the keyboard where I could plug a pedal in and use it to switch to a different ergodox layer (which as of now I assume you do just via another key). The kinesis does have a pedal input, but I don't think the ergodox ez has it, or does it? the website does not say anything about it...
- hiaux0 9y agoMy bad. No the ergodox doesn't has this.
- tetraodonpuffer 9y agono worries, who knows, maybe in a future revision it might
- okreallywtf 9y agoI've thought of this for the shift keys, I find that certain key combinations that require shift are a lot more awkward for my hands to do and I wonder if year after year eventually that is going to give me arthritis or increase the chances of it. I think that with a pedal it might make +, -, {, }, (, ) etc much easier on the hands to complete since they account for the worst stretches my hands have to make.
- bmpafa 9y ago> ... wonder if year after year eventually that is going to give me arthritis or increase the chances of it. This is precisely the reason I picked-up an ergodox [1] when my wrists started to hurt from `ctrl+whatever` key combos. moving modifier keys to the thumbs is so obviously superior I'm not sure why it's not more common. admittedly it felt ridiculous to pay ~$250 for a keyboard (thanks, ebay), but now i almost never have to contort my wrists into weird angles & [1] https://www.ergodox.io/ https://www.ergodox.io/
- mobilemidget 9y ago"During the day it calls itself a Vim Clutch, but at night its name is pornhubbrowserautohidepanic-button" Nonetheless, it is a nice device, though I don't see myself relearning a muscle memory to use a pedal, which I will basically only have at home and/or work, but not when working somewhere remote on a notebook. But if I had one, or had to use one, I'd probably bind ESC to it or alt+tab to cycle through 2 or 3 apps, editor/terminal/browser
- pdkl95 9y agoWhen I was first learning emacs and trying to figure out a sane way to type double bucky[1][2] commands, I happened to read about a project like this for using pedals as modifier keys. However, instead of using the obvious hardware approach for the time - probably using a couple momentary switch pedals and reading them from the parallel port - I had a much better^Wmore fun idea: use a MIDI organ pedal board[3]. I already had a MIDI interface (Midiman MM-401), and I had already dreamed of getting such pedals for regular keyboard use. Having 1-2 octaves available was plenty of room for all kinds of extra macros and/or hotkeys. I was half way through writing a simple daemon that would listen for MIDI and send the appropriate synthetic X11 KeyPress/KeyRelease events when I finally looked into where I could buy a pedal board, and realized they were $600+ (in mid-90s dollars). ~sigh~ [1] e.g. "C-M-SPC" for mark-sexp [2] http://catb.org/jargon/html/D/double-bucky.html http://catb.org/jargon/html/D/double-bucky.html [3] anything similar to this: http://www.nordkeyboards.com/products/nord-pedal-keys-27 http://www.nordkeyboards.com/products/nord-pedal-keys-27
- madmod 9y agoMy friend and I converted an old organ pedal board to digital using some magnets, reed switches, and an arduino. Mounting the reed switches on foam board was a fast easy hack. It did require a real organ seat though because of the length of the pedals.
- idrock 9y agoWrong. (being the first to do this that is.) One of the creators of the Zeus web server did this writing Zeus while in college. Still a great idea, and of course, vim is awesome.
- tess0r 9y agoI stole my wifes sewing machine foot-pedal for a similar project recently https://github.com/tessi/programming_paddle https://github.com/tessi/programming_paddle (code there is hacky, don't jude ;)) It's an interesting and easy project to start soldering/arduino-fiddling. Parts can be purchased with approx. $25. In comparison to the pedal used in the vim clutch, the sewing machine pedal has the advantage of not only having an on/off state, but returning the pedal-pressure (so half-ressed and all sorts of combos are possible). Currently, I use it for sublime-text shortcuts (cmp+p on half-press and cmd+shift+p on deep-press) or for debugging (ctrl+d to continue code execution). edit: typo
- inieves 9y agoYou should consider 2 “presses” for the pedal: 1) quick press-release: changes mode 2) long press-hold-release: changes mode on press and then changes mode back on release This allows the user to not have to hold the pedal down if they dont want. User can specify a time threshold used to determine the difference between a quick press and a long press
- amelius 9y ago"cruise control" for vi :)
- pogden 9y agoPerhaps if it’s released before another key is pressed, the mode stays changed. If another key is pressed first, it changes back on release.
- SimbaOnSteroids 9y agoWhy not have an automatic transmission instead, like vi goes, hey these haven't been real words for the last 8 characters, bet they were esc commands.
- stcredzero 9y agoBack in the late 80's, my housemate told me about his coworker who made a footpedal ESC key to make his EMACS editing faster.
- zeristor 9y agoThis reminds me of an ArsTechnica story from some years back, $500 for some rugged steel pedals for a flight simualator: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2015/01/want-high-end-flight-sim-pedals-put-500-in-a-polish-bank-account-and-contact-slaw/ https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2015/01/want-high-end-flight...
- emh68 9y agoThis is cool and all, but coming from the emacs world, all I want is a keyboard with four meta keys. Ctrl/alt/command/option maybe. All in a row to the left/right of the spacebar. That would be ideal.
- punchclockhero 9y agoHave you tried Japanese keyboards? They tend to have smaller spacebars and extra modifiers.
- pdkl95 9y agohttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space-cadet_keyboard https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space-cadet_keyboard Also, if you have a 104/105 key keyboard with "windows" and "menu" keys, you do& have a keyboard with four modifier keys. From my .Xmodmap file: clear Mod1 clear Mod3 clear Mod4 clear Mod5 ! left alt -> Meta keycode 64 = Meta_L add Mod1 = Meta_L ! right alt -> Alt keycode 108 = Alt_R add Mod4 = Alt_R ! left windows -> Super keycode 133 = Super_L add Mod3 = Super_L ! right windows -> Hyper keycode 134 = Hyper_R add Mod5 = Hyper_R Emacs uses all four automatically, as M- A- s- H- respectively. (alternatively, see: http://ergoemacs.org/emacs/emacs_hyper_super_keys.html http://ergoemacs.org/emacs/emacs_hyper_super_keys.html )
- bmn__ 9y agoCaution, that kills the ISO_Level3_Shift mapping on the regular 105 layout. Much less intrusive solution is to leave Super_L, Alt_L, ISO_Level3_Shift as well as the control and shift keys unchanged and simply map Super_R to Meta_R and map Menu to Hyper_R.
- ChuckMcM 9y agoPretty awesome. I built one of these for world of warcraft to be my 'push to talk' key for teamspeak. Since I have used it for a variety of things. However I started with a standard pedal (1/4" phone plug type) and used a Cypress USB controller dev kit (free from one of their training classes) which had a small uP and a USB controller on it. I'll have to see how 'clutch' mode works (I'm a VIM user). There was a person who showed off a hacked organ base pedal unit that had been improved to send keystrokes in a similar way. For me I could see sending one, or two key strokes. Sending 10 or 12 seems like overkill.
- a-b 9y agoThis project is very old. I tried it and it was funny at the beginning, but considering muscle memory this is not something I want to invest in the long run due to limited portability. Remapped capslock to control and control + [ works much better. Vim clutch does not work with standing desk setup ;) don't ask me how do I know that.
- sologoub 9y agoWish there was a way to do this with iPad/ssh, maybe over Bluetooth?
- deleted 9y ago[deleted]
- jxramos 9y agoI use foot pedals used in the transcription space such as something a stenographer would use. Philips makes good foot pedals. They're pretty robust. There's utilities for reprogramming what the button press triggers, mine's set for copy / paste. Pedable is good, and there's an advanced tool called ControllerMate worth looking into.
- hwestiii 9y agoI always thought Emacs was the one that needed foot pedals.
- jzwinck 9y agoAround 2001 I made a pedal from Radio Shack parts and connected it to the Backspace key on an IBM Model M keyboard. Why Backspace? It was a gift for a friend who had what we called Rusty Degenerative Typing Syndrome. His typo rate was just terrible. The pedal did not improve his typing error rate but it night have saves hid friends a lot of contusion.
- DonGateley 9y agoActually I did think of the desirability of exactly this somewhere around 1984 or thereabouts. It didn't go further than a wish though because the only access to the Unix system that I'd installed for use by the group I managed was via dumb terminals and the DIY arena was nowhere near as rich as it is now. Especially in a building in a corn field somewhere between Rockford, IL and Belvidere, IL:-) If wishes were fishes we'd all swim in riches. Really nice job moving beyond that!
- hunta2097 9y agoThis is a surprisingly low tech solution. You could program a digispark to do this for $3. Two USB ports and controllers just to press I and escape? Crazy.
- mchahn 9y agoI couldn't use this because I only work on a laptop on a couch. I haven't sat at a desk in years. (And yes I also exercise to stay alive).
- aaronblohowiak 9y agoI did this a while ago as well: https://github.com/aaronblohowiak/clutch https://github.com/aaronblohowiak/clutch
