Native Jupyter Shortcuts Inactivated

[cyniphile]

In new jupyter notebooks all native jupyter shortcuts are disabled except j and k when in jupyter command mode (not jupyter-vim command mode). In legacy notebooks that I created with ipython notebook, none of the jupyter shortcuts work, even though the jupyter-vim shortcuts work fine.

These problems arise only after I run

%%javascript
Jupyter.utils.load_extensions('vim_binding/vim_binding')

all native jupyter shortcuts are disabled

That what this plugin stands for. This plugin provide Vim-like shortcuts.

Ivanov's Vimception keeps both sets of shortcuts which makes it very easy to move between cells and copy/paste/add/delete cells using native jupyter shortcuts and also edit within-cell using vim-like shortcuts.

Currently with my installation of jupyter-vim-bindings, it's not possible to move between cells in old notebooks or copy/paste/add/delete new cells using shortcuts.

While Jupyter provide non Vim flavour key binding. I would like to disable most of default one. For example, in Jupyter

• O is used for toggle-cell-output-scrolled but I feel O to put a line (cell) above
• y is used for change-cell-to-code but I feel y to yank (copy) a selection (cell)

That's why I said "That what this plugin stands for."

What did you mean with "old notebooks"? jupyter-vim-binding is just a javascript plugin so it won't change any data structure or so on. And jupyter-vim-binding provides different mappings. Use

• yy to copy (yank)
• p to paste
• o or O to insert a cell
• dd to delete
