Remap keys
· 5 min read
After developing the muscle memory for navigating text with the H, J, K and L keys while developing with VIM or VS Code with the VIM plugin, I now find it very distracting to have to move my hand to use the arrow keys for moving around text or even to just select an option from a drop-down in other applications. It just feels jarring when working.
What I want is an operating system-wide solution that affords me the ability to use H, J, K, L instead of needing to use the cursor/arrow keys; the keys are typically positioned such that they are just too difficult to access without moving the right hand.
