> Do you read/write with your tongue? No, but every now and then I get out of my cave and meet people and have to use my voice. You should try it. Are you always this confrontational? > How would the OS know what mode you're in? How would it know know what command is expecting input in a sequence? The OS doesn't need to know what mode you're using in vim to send another key. But you could make a plugin to change the window title and let the modtap program listen for that. I use window class and title for my window manager to handle programs differently, I don't see why a modtap program couldn't if that is something you want. Use your imagination. > And this is relevant how? Modal text editing isn't universal functionality, so? I'm not the one bitching about missing modal functionality in programs. That's why it's relevant, what programs meet your expectations? I see that is conveniently one of the few questions you skipped answering from my last comment, so I'm going to assume none? > Explain exactly how normal mods do it "just as well" Regarding latency? Not listening for the next key means no latency? But you knew this. The only reason I brought up latency was that coords are not a good choice in insert mode. Use it if you want, I don't. Don't make such a deal about something I mentioned in passing. > Nope, you just didn't get the irony: "Bad solution → similarly bad solution" Please tell me you're a child... > And then those standard motions select the whole comment instead of the next sentence. Have you even used it? Stop hallucinating ChatGPT. > Bump "some" to "a lot" and you'll be closer to understanding I never claimed it does everything vim does. Do you expect your e-mail client to compile programs? Emacs might be more your cup of tea, you'll never have to leave it. Most people are completely fine with the different ways different programs implement vim keys in their context, usually just movements, sometimes yank and move. It's very convenient for most of us. > No you weren't. In your ignorance you mistook a complicated question for a simple one and later proceeded to try to prove to me that my problem doesn't even exist, I asked why it was a problem and proposed solutions and workarounds. I'll try to ask again because I'm genuinely curious, what programs do you use that support modtap and meet your standards? You obviously have strong feelings about a program you don't even use. What programs are not garbage and have no-nonsense UI for modtap? Do they even exist or are you just looking for a reason to whine about a program you have no intentions of using? Do I understand you correctly? Modtap is the issue? Or is it the lack of a GUI for configuration?
