"Using vim with dvorak is a real pain."
That is not my experience, at all.
Then again, I don't use Vim like notepad with "hjkl" instead of arrow keys... All the powerful movement and editing commands (b, w, $, 0, /foo, *, #, %, cw, dd, ^], ^t, cib, ., etc.) work just as well with dvorak as with qwerty.
- dietr1ch 8y agoThere's people that remap those on vim, but I found that doing so may force you to start remapping all the keys on every vim-inspired application and plug in. It happens that "J" and "K" are next to each other and easily reachable, and that "H" and "L" still are 2 columns away and "h" is on the left, so using them in their new position it's not that bad.
