I really think basic text navigation is no longer a problem since the the adoption of PC keyboards in the 1980s and 1990s. Key arrows are easy to find blindly except maybe on some screwed up laptop designs.
- organsnyder 7y agoPerhaps our definitions of "basic text navigation" are different. I'd include capabilities such as "jump six words to the right, based on natural word boundaries" and "jump six words to the right, based on whitespace only". Oh, and "jump to the end of this statement that's enclosed by parentheses". Not trying to start a vim-vs-whatever war here, though I suppose that's inevitable in a discussion of tabs-vs-spaces...
