Has eye-tracking been explored for improved code editing beyond Vim?
Vim does away with the hand-travel delays, but many of these ninja keystroke moves to navigate code are just what your eyes do already (but not all, such as the search function).

- erklik 6y agoRecently, I had an idea (which is somewhat stupid and makes me think I am rather lazy) to switch window context between two monitors using my eyes. Mainly because, right now, most of my workflow is from my keyboard, but to switch windows, I have to make either a weird hand twisting shortcut or use the mouse. I haven't yet found such a solution but I do wonder how hard it would be build such a thing.
