Feature Request: key binding to navigate to parent #133

Open qsantos opened 1 year ago

qsantos commented 1 year ago

When hitting “H”, I want to navigate to the parent of the currently active comment.

Rationale

With Reddit Enhancement Suite, I am used to navigating to the parent comment with “H” and toggling the tree with “M”. It makes for very efficient keyboard-based navigation with just H, J, K and M (not L, since that is a rightwards movement in Vim). For “toggling the tree”, the feature exists, and customizing the keybinding is covered by #39; I can live with “Return” until I or someone else implements that. However, there is no keybinding for “navigating to parent”.

If anyone encounters a similar issue: since that project has had no activity since 2022, I have solved the issue for myself by writing my own extension: https://github.com/qsantos/ViHN. I'll keep this issue opened in case Refined Hacker News becomes active again.
