This post is auto-generated from RSS feed The Rust Programming Language Forum - Latest topics. Source: Vim.hx -- Vim Motions for Helix

I've been working on a "lightweight" patch for Helix to add Vim-like motions. "Lightweight" here means it makes minimal changes to the Helix source code, so merging it with upstream or adding it to your own fork is simple. Because it's easy to maintain, the project won’t need me to survive — as long as Helix lives, it lives. Long live Helix.

I have no intention of creating an exact replica of Vim or a fork that diverges from Helix (unlike some other forks — links in the repo). You’ll still need to learn some Helix basics — things like multi-cursor, search & replace, etc. In fact, this can be a good intro for Vim users to explore the power of multi-cursor and other Helix features!

Heads-up: this is still in early development — though I do use it daily

Note: I might consider using the upcoming Helix plugin system, once it's merged!
