I am right there with you. I did the same thing, and now when I jump into Vim from anywhere, it's so much easier.
Though I really do like having the Capslock key remapped to escape.
- chasedehan 7y agoI much prefer mapping caps lock to ctrl. That reach is much more difficult for me
- jabl 7y agoSwap caps lock and escape, then set the bottom row from the left as windows key, alt, ctrl, space. Then you can easily use ctrl with your left thumb.
- jstimpfle 7y agoIf you are on a regular keyboard, you can keep all your fingers on the home row and use your palm to hit ctrl.
- kej 7y agoAround the time I learned vim I also got myself into the habit of using the opposite hand for Ctrl, the same way you would for Shift. It has pretty much eliminated any need to stretch for a key chord.
- xtracto 7y agoThat's mechanography 101. I am so happy I got into those courses in secondary school in the 90s. Even if everybody said it was for girls. Now I type at 100wpm and using Vim gives amazing productivity.
