I've gone further to support meta-keybindings for whole-word movement. Control-b goes back one character, option-b goes back a whole word. It's really easy to add and customize:

- second--shift 6y agoUnless an app overloads the shortcut (looking at you Slack...) that seems to work by default for me: c-b and c-f behave as expected. M-b and M-f work sometimes too, but these two get intercepted for ∫ and ƒ respectively in Slack, Firefox, etc.
- 3JPLW 6y agoM-b and M-f work for me in slack with my custom defaultkeybinding.dict. It only requires the app to use OS-native text inputs.
- mattalbie 6y agoI've done the same (via Hammerspoon) but it's worth noting that, by default, macOS can do word-movement via ctrl+option+b/f.
