tl;dr It's happening!
- masukomi 13y agoit should be noted that if you find the vim support lacking in LightTable it's just a matter of adding what you need to CodeMirror (which is where LightTable gets its vim support) and then LT, and everything else that uses CodeMirror will get better, and all us vim users will be thankful.
- pedalpete 13y agoApparently CodeMirror already has vim bindings. http://codemirror.net/#features http://codemirror.net/#features
- owaislone 13y agoHow does one actually enable Vim mode in LT?
- usr 13y agoFirst you have to install the plugin. In the menu at the top, go to View then click on Commands. The commands will appear on the right side (and note that you can just start typing the name of a command to filter it out). Click on this one "Plugins: Show plugin manager". Then on the Plugins, make sure you go to the Available section. Scroll down and find Vim and click on it. Now you have to enable it. Go back to Commands and find "Settings: User behaviors" . Then go to the :editor section between the square brackets. Type "vim" and it will show a popup with several items it can complete. Pick this one: "Vim: Activate Vim mode". It should then insert this: :lt.plugins.vim/activate-vim Save the file and it should now work!
- pedalpete 13y agodeGrevis, it will be happening TWICE! I asked the original question, as I've been spending a bit of time creating an IDE, I'll be continuing development and will also be open sourcing it.
