I wish Helix has vim-motions as an option. I don't want to break my muscle memory and le-learn everything just to use it in one editor (I use vim motions everywhere I can via plugins).
- rgoulter 4y agoI think that helix doesn't have vim motions is a core part of its identity. Or, rather, what's the difference betweeen "helix but with vim motions" and a bundled vim distribution? I see Helix as a polished-out-of-the-box editor with kakoune-style motion, LSP, and tree-sitter (which supports enhanced motion). -- I think each of these things is a nice improvement over what came before; even if vim motions have long staying power.

- bioemerl 4y agoUp further, I wish things like vim were abstracted out so that they were hiding in the operating system level instead of on the application level. That way you could have vim emotions everywhere.
