- terhechte 13y agoOh I know that feeling, even when I learn a faster command, it only takes a day once I forget about using it. It is really difficult adding unknown commands to the list of muscle memory commands. I recently switched to caps-lock+G for escape (from jj) and that was a tough ride because my muscle memory would always hit jj.

More than this we can swap out f. Instead of f, try i, which I think of as "inside". So ci" deletes the text inside quotes and leaves you in insert mode. ci) deletes the text inside parentheses and leaves you in insert mode. For example foobar[somekeyvar] = "wooyay" move to somekeyvar and ci] then type "anotherkey" foobar[anotherkey] = "wooyay" I use this constantly while programming.
