It's very easy to do on most OS's today and not having to move your hand from the home row when you switch into command mode is as big as proper use of jump commands imo.
I also agree to avoid all massive .vimrc files. If you don't understand it, don't use it. Simple.
- neilk 15y agoI have had a lot of trouble remapping Caps Lock on Mac OS X. What's your method?
- graywh 15y agoIt's in the keyboard preference pane under "modifier keys".
- slmbrhrt 15y agoPrefs -> Keyboard -> Modifier keys.
- neilk 15y agoOh, sorry, I should clarify -- I want to remap it to Esc. Or, to be more precise, I want Caps Lock to somehow switch modes in vim in a terminal app. If that means configuring something on both sides, the OS and vim, I'm cool with that. I've tried a number of things but nothing seems to work right.
