Keymap change

[bensleveritt]

Hallo 👋 ! Pesky COLEMAK user here. Just looking to change the keymap, and I believe I remapped in config.js, but doesn't seem to have an effect.

The help reflects the change accurately, but the actual keybinds don't. Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

My config.js (which I checked is in the package.zip):

// Configuration for Krabby (https://github.com/alexherbo2/krabby/blob/master/src/krabby)

const { modes } = krabby;
const { modal } = modes;

modal.keyMap = {
  Backquote: { key: "`", shiftKey: "~" },
  Digit1: { key: "1", shiftKey: "!" },
  Digit2: { key: "2", shiftKey: "@" },
  Digit3: { key: "3", shiftKey: "#" },
  Digit4: { key: "4", shiftKey: "$" },
  Digit5: { key: "5", shiftKey: "%" },
  Digit6: { key: "6", shiftKey: "^" },
  Digit7: { key: "7", shiftKey: "&" },
  Digit8: { key: "8", shiftKey: "*" },
  Digit9: { key: "9", shiftKey: "(" },
  Digit0: { key: "0", shiftKey: ")" },
  Minus: { key: "-", shiftKey: "_" },
  Equal: { key: "=", shiftKey: "+" },
  KeyQ: { key: "q", shiftKey: "Q" },
  KeyW: { key: "w", shiftKey: "W" },
  KeyE: { key: "f", shiftKey: "F" },
  KeyR: { key: "p", shiftKey: "P" },
  KeyT: { key: "g", shiftKey: "G" },
  KeyY: { key: "j", shiftKey: "J" },
  KeyU: { key: "l", shiftKey: "L" },
  KeyI: { key: "u", shiftKey: "U" },
  KeyO: { key: "y", shiftKey: "Y" },
  KeyP: { key: ";", shiftKey: ":" },
  BracketLeft: { key: "[", shiftKey: "{" },
  BracketRight: { key: "]", shiftKey: "}" },
  Backslash: { key: "\\", shiftKey: "|" },
  KeyA: { key: "a", shiftKey: "A" },
  KeyS: { key: "r", shiftKey: "R" },
  KeyD: { key: "s", shiftKey: "S" },
  KeyF: { key: "t", shiftKey: "T" },
  KeyG: { key: "d", shiftKey: "D" },
  KeyH: { key: "h", shiftKey: "H" },
  KeyJ: { key: "n", shiftKey: "N" },
  KeyK: { key: "e", shiftKey: "E" },
  KeyL: { key: "i", shiftKey: "I" },
  Semicolon: { key: "o", shiftKey: "O" },
  Quote: { key: "'", shiftKey: '"' },
  KeyZ: { key: "z", shiftKey: "Z" },
  KeyX: { key: "x", shiftKey: "X" },
  KeyC: { key: "c", shiftKey: "C" },
  KeyV: { key: "v", shiftKey: "V" },
  KeyB: { key: "b", shiftKey: "B" },
  KeyN: { key: "k", shiftKey: "K" },
  KeyM: { key: "m", shiftKey: "M" },
  Comma: { key: ",", shiftKey: "<" },
  Period: { key: ".", shiftKey: ">" },
  Slash: { key: "/", shiftKey: "?" },
};

As an aside, is it better to remap via keyMap or another way?

Hey, thanks for trying Krabby!

You change the display, but not the position, like in video games.

If you want to change the mappings, you have to use the map command. (You can press Shift + F1 to navigate to the documentation).

Super helpful, many thanks.

Thanks for closing too, sorry took a while to get back.
