    I’ll tell you what though: one you get used to it, you really get used to it.

    I typed :q to try and close a tab the other day.

    Edit: a tab not in vim, of course

      Lol yeah i try to close everything with it. Same with getting used to tiling. Insead of draging my mouse across the screen 20 times i just press a few key combos. But then i need to use a windows machine and everyone wonders why “the it guy” doesnt know how to use a computer.

          Yes but it is very basic and i use different binds so its still like having a stroke every time i use it.

      At one point I had a plugin for MS Word that added vim key bindings because I kept leaving stray vim commands while editing other people’s documents.

        There are vim keybindings for Code. Discovered that yesterday.

        Though, if you want vim bindings for Code, probably should just use vim…

          By Code do you mean VSCode? I use it all the time with VIM key bindings. It offers so much more than VIM with less finicky configuration. It’s the first IDE I’ve ever actually liked. Before now it was VIM or nothing.
