Have you ever tried Vim mode in ST?
- aninhumer 13y agoVintage mode pretty much sucks for any proficient vim user. It implements only a fraction of the commands, and doesn't integrate properly with ST's features. The most obvious flaw for me was that insert mode doesn't record any text generated by ST's completion, so if you try to repeat the action, you get the gibberish you actually typed. Don't get me wrong. I love ST, and Vintage mode was what convinced me to try it. But ultimately it was far more frustrating to have only half of my muscle memory work in Vintage than it was to just learn the ST way.
- atom-morgan 13y agoTBH, I agree with everything you said but was hoping that maybe you could convince me otherwise. I guess not. It seems everyone hates ST's vim mode.
- jbeja 13y agoIt sucks, and Vintageous the new implementation have so many bugs and is pretty much unusable from the first install, also it take some time to load every time i start sublime text.
- doktrin 13y agoI stopped using Vintageous as soon as I found myself unable to alias 'jj' to 'esc'.
- hornbaker 13y agoThis ('kj') works great for me in User Keybindings with ST3 and Vintageous: { "keys": ["k", "j"], "command": "_enter_normal_mode", "args": {"mode": "mode_insert"}, "context": [{"key": "vi_insert_mode_aware"}] } I was a heavy VIM user prior to making the switch to ST2 and then ST3, and haven't really found any vim blockers with ST3/Vintageous.
