Hi @csessh, that's an interesting feature. However, hardtime.nvim by default disables the arrow key in insert mode, so I think this is enough for user to quit the habit of navigating in insert mode. Could you please provide some example situation when you still navigate in insert mode?
I haven't used arrow keys in a while now, thanks to hardtime.nvim. re the navigation in Insert: Quite often I found myself do this with brackets/quotes:
foo()j
the j
key is my attempt to go back in between ()
.
Or
config = function()
endk
the k
is my attempt to go up a line to write this function.
Or
often times, I find myself just sitting in Insert mode without returning to normal mode. So as soon as I need to navigate, I just do without checking to see if I'm in Normal mode. The requires multiple additional keys pressed to undo before I can resume navigating.
@m4xshen It's a good/fun bit of practice for me anyway, so I created a PR. any feedback would be welcome
I have struggled for a little while to shake old habits from VSCode days, including navigating mid-edit.
This means I (still) occasionally navigate while in Insert mode, which isn't recommended. Redditors seem to unanimously agree on "Don't navigate in Insert mode, exit as soon as you're done typing/editing".
So that's a shift in mind set I have been working on. I'm happy to submit a PR for this feature if accepted.
The gist of it would be:
Cheers,
