I'm watching now and it doesn't seem that bad, sure he switches tabs with the mouse but it seems like he is using quite a lot of keyboard shortcuts otherwise. I'd almost wager he has a plugin to emulate vim or emacs keybinds, seeing as he's moving the cursor forward by words and jumping around the code a lot without using the mouse at all.
- swah 12y agoBy the powerful sound of the keystroke when moving words, I'd say he is using Ctrl+<Arrows>. That is very common in Windows. BTW I'm not able to switch between OSX and Windows (home & work) efficiently - Windows' shortcuts are so much easier on my hands. Is there any way people make the two OSes more similar?
- spain 12y agoI know on Windows you can use AutoHotkey[0] to recreate all your OS X keybindings, but I'm not sure about recreating Windows binds on OS X. [0] http://www.autohotkey.com/ http://www.autohotkey.com/
- icoder 12y agoI come from windows and now use a Mac (iOS dev). I was so used to all windows shortcuts (shift+ctrl+keyright to select a word, ctrl+c to copy, etc), I know what you mean! I use KeyRemap4MacBook, which kicks in as soon as I connect my hardware windows keyboard to it (which is basically always when I sit down to code). It has a lot of default windows compatibility settings, but you can customize at will. I added a few myself by hand as well (also to get desktop switching the same as I was used to from Ubuntu :).
- swah 12y agoThanks for this. If I can map C-v, C-c, C-t, C-w, Shift-home, Shift-end... I should capture a good portion of my misses :)
