> every now and then I get out of my cave and meet people You should get out more often and meet more people, then you might stop telling people what words they should use in writing (especially with irrelevant tongue arguments) > The OS doesn't need to know what mode you're using in vim to send another key. Of course it does since the key is command+mode-dependent. And you forgot to answer the second question, so I'm going to assume you have nothing constructive to offer here as well. > let the modtap program listen for that. Which program would that be? Also, why couldn't the Vim app listen to itself, removing the intermediary? Can you not imagine that? > I don't see why a modtap program couldn't if that is something you want. Use your imagination. You fail to see plenty of things here, nothing my imagination could fix. > Regarding latency? No, regarding functionality. > Have you even used it? Stop hallucinating ChatGPT. Of course, right before writing that comment, I'm not as ignorant as you are and don't replace facts with imagination. > It's very convenient for most of us And again, this is neither about you personally nor your imaginary "us" that you feel you can speak for. > I asked why it was a problem and proposed solutions Not a single solution, plenty of insults > I'll try to ask again because I'm genuinely curious Genuinely curious people don't denigrate something they're clueless about and do not fear google so much they put a word police hat on at the first mention

You're like a dog chasing your own tail, everything you ask has already been covered in previous comments (such as how vim listens for keys from external bindings or how those bindings can know the mode from vim). I don't enjoy repeating myself and it's obvious you're not looking for solutions only drama. I don't know what modtap program you should use, I don't use them you're the one demanding it. Do you have mech keyboard, use that? Fuck do I know, DYOR. Nothing I would suggest would satisfy you anyway and my patience ran out several comments ago. What programs do you use and what _exactly_ are you missing in vim. Is it modtap? A GUI? I don't even know what you're so pissed about and you refuse to mention it. Be constructive or find something else to waste your time on, this will most likely be my last response as I don't expect anything different in your next one.

  > everything you ask has already been covered in previous comments No, you've covered nothing, I've pointed to flaws in your supposed solutions, but your imagination covered them. Not a single solution > I don't enjoy repeating myself You don't need to, you can address specific issues you keep repeatedly ignoring Instead of retreating back to your: > I don't know what modtap program you should use I know, and that's the biggest problem in this conversation - you don't know a lot, yet keep imagining you do and arguing that the solution "oh must exist, just use your imagination, here is some naive kludge about window titles and mech keyboards" > Do you have mech keyboard, use that? So how would the mech keyboard firmware know what command and mode vim is in the middle of? Oh, wait, you have no clue, you don't use anything, so why do you keep offering all these non-solutions? > it's obvious you're not looking for solutions I am, that's why I asked the question, you're just not competent enough to offer any > Nothing I would suggest would satisfy you anyway Yes, that would require more knowledge and less arrogance on your part > you're the one demanding it. Quote where I demand it. That's just another one of your rhetorical fissy twists > what _exactly_ are you missing in vim The original comment was just one sentence, and it lists exactly what I'm missing, including exact examples. The fact that you're still clueless after so many comments is on you > I don't even know what you're so pissed about and you refuse to mention it. I'm pissed about aggressive ignoramuses dismissing problems and wasting time policing words and offering empty solutions because vim pinkies are fine and convenient for them. Just to clarify to make it a bit harder for you to twist it again - I'm not pissed about the fact that there is no great keybinding support in vim GUI, great things are rare

    Yes, you're right. I'm sorry vim doesn't raise your chickens and cook your tendies. What a terrible software. Your mom will have to do until someone creates something better. See, I can also completely miss the point and act all high and mighty. It's not my problem my suggestions aren't good enough, however you've not mentioned a single solution you are happy with. How come?
