- ggerganov 4y agoI've been programming in Vim for a very long time and even though I use some of the available jump commands, I still find it very useful to have a fast key repeat rate. In most cases it's simply faster to start going to where I want to go, instead of calculating how many character to jump left or right, how many lines to jump up or down or find the closest unique pattern of symbols to search for. It's just bizarre that Mac OS has such a small cap on the Key Repeat rate. Wondering if there is a way around this. Edit: I do have a powerful plugin [0] for jumping which I often use, but still - in some cases I just want to scroll all the way there. Fast.
