Through the several tutorials and tips and tricks site about Vim, I think I happened to read that one can reassign a combination of keys in Vim.
I would have loved to switch between vim tabs more easily and quicker that typing :tabn or :tabp each time.
For the moment Ctrl + Left or Right arrow, makes me switch from command mode to insert mode, and pastes the character c or d according the arrow
After the last system update the ctrl + left/right arrow command on zsh terminal doesn't do anything. Also ctrl+ u has something wrong because usually that command erase from the cursor to the beginning of the line, while now erase entire line..
Someone knows how to solve these problems?
thank you all.
I'm on my Ubuntu 12.04. Every time I'm editing a text, i'm using ctrl + left/right arrow keys to move/jump between words. Recently, I installed xscreensaver and changed keyboard shortcuts to activate my screensaver. But then, Ctrl + left key stop responding to what it must do (move to the next word to the left). Ctrl + right key still jumps to next word to the right.
For example i want to move the " up down left right " arrows to " ctrl + i / clrt+k / ctrl+j/ ctrl+L " ( because the are broken..) ...
Hope my goal is clear ...
Thanks :dance::D
Ok, I realise that I risk a religious war asking a question about text editors, but here goes.
Requirements
Mostly used for config file edits
Text based not GUI
Available for Raspian flavour of Debian
No learning required for a Windows/Mac GUI user (no vi/vim)
Makes full use of keys found on modern keyboards, i.e.
> edit: * is this the past of bind? is it used like this in case of "key-bindings"?yes it is, one might also say, 'assigned'ie; Ctrl+r isn`t assigned to anything elsei'm guessing ctrl-shift-r was bound in terminator because of ctrl-ra quick check in tty2 shows ctrl-r OR ctrl-shift-r does the same thing.very interesting cmd there, bind, thanks naik.
Eleven months ago I installed Statler. I wanted to switch CapsLock and left Ctrl, read about how to do this, did it, and wrote up the (simple) recipe in the Crunchbang wiki page "KEYBOARD Swapping the CapsLock and the left Ctrl keys" (not least as a memo for my later self).I got it right, too.
My laptop has a Fn key right where I always expect the Ctrl key to be. I would like to make the Fn key behave just like the Ctrl key so I stop trying to Fn+C and Fn+V and Fn+Tab instead of Ctrl+C Ctrl+V and Ctrl+Tab.
Is this possible?
Note: I don't care if I am unable to use the Fn key as an actual function key. I never use it for that purpose anyway.
