I also highly recommend Spacemacs. If VI isn't your thing, it is still great to use it, just set it up in Holy mode using Ivy.
What it adds (on top of a great default config), is bindings which start with M-m (that's Alt+m). For almost everything. Like saving your file is M-m f s (that's Alt+m release, f release, s release).
- fao_ 7y agoSure, but with a leader key in vim set to 'f', I can save with f-s (that is, press the f key and then the s key), which after a month is next to automatic
- dan-robertson 7y agoYou’re arguing about vim shortcuts in reply to a description of what one can do if one doesn’t want vim shortcuts. Note that the equivalent in vim is not really f s, but ESC f s, because in most modes where one might do M-m f s, most characters insert themselves, the equivalent of insert mode in vim. Note also that in regular emacs one can do C-x C-s (ie holding control press x then s).
