definitely useful, for me personally, the use case is using it to write on lambda as the obsolescence of the old editor while the new one is still useless for me as the vim emulation is not usable. thanks, mate.
- snthpy 2y agoAre you saying nvim's vim emulation is insufficient for you? What are you missing? I've had the same experience with things like vim emulation in vscode but I switched to LazyVim from vim a few months ago and it's been a smooth experience for me.
- ryansouza 2y agoI think they mean when using the in-browser editor for lambdas in the AWS console. This will let them get actual vim usability instead of an included vim-mode thats not up to snuff.
- lemper 2y agoyea mate, that's correct. when i type things on the new lambda editor then press esc, it actually lost the editor focus not the editing mode to command mode.
- mst 2y agoSee if Ctrl-[ works. I tend to hit that instead of Esc everywhere I'm using a vi-like after having a weird keyboard issue that nerfed my Esc key for a while (long and uninteresting story) and then finding that Ctrl-[ was more comfortable for me anyway. (of course that may not work at all in the lambda editor, I'm mostly using it in terminals with heirloom-ex-vi, but seems easy enough to TIAS some time)
- setopt 2y agoAnother option worth trying is pressing Ctrl-C. Unlike Ctrl-[, it’s not 100% equivalent to ESC (e.g. it prevents abbreviation expansion), but it does put you in normal mode without losing what you did in insert mode.
