If you haven’t yet developed your emacs muscle memory I would suggest remapping your keyboard to swap the left-control and caps-lock keys. Your pinky will thank you.
In macOS you can do this by going to Settings->Keyboard->Keyboard Shortcuts->Modifier Keys.
- eequah9L 4y agoIf you haven’t yet developed your Emacs muscle memory, consider taking a look at Evil. I switched about 7 years ago after well over a decade of using the default Emacs text editor. It was the right move. VIM IMHO just is a better editor. Emacs is the better everything else, but thanks to Evil, you can both eat this cake and have it, too. For me, a good stepping stone to Evil was God mode. It strips away the need to mash modifier keys, but retains all the Emacs keyboard bindings. It gives you a glimpse of what using a modal editor is like, roughly, with a tiny cognitive effort investment.
