Interesting. How long have you been using Vim?
- ibotty 14y agoyou did not ask me, but: when i'm busy thinking about the code, when i'm not typing for a long time, i lay back and browse the sourcecode with arrows and (up and down or pg-up and pg-down). not that fast, sure. but can be done with one hand, the other is scratching my head or what helps me think.

- latortuga 14y agoPage up and page down are part of my must-learn-asap shortcuts when learning a new editor - once you have hjkl and ctrl+f/ctrl+b ingrained, browsing code while keeping your hands mostly over the home row becomes a lot easier and you don't have to move your hands back and forth. I've found that if I want to browse my code with one hand, the scrollwheel on my mouse does the trick :)
- ibotty 14y agoah yes. mouses. i knew there was another input controller... (not to be misunderstood, i use mostly hjkl and ctrl-d and ctrl-u (half-screen up and down). and i find the mouse uncomfortable.)
- lucian1900 14y agoAround 2 years I think. Often switching mode to move around is just more effort than moving my hand a little, at least on the laptops I've used lately.
- qu4z-2 14y agoInsert is not a mode. Well, technically it is. But don't think of it as one.
