[plugin] New: The use of Vim Key In TotalCommander
Moderators: white, Hacker, petermad, Stefan2
Great idea.
I use vim a lot and would like to use the vimkeys in TC.
but almost all keys are different.
Can't you give users the possibility to change the hotkeys?
p.e.
gg --> go to the top of file list (go to first file)
G ---> go to bottom of file list (go to last file)
G10 --> go to file 10 lines below current position
G-10 --> go to file 10 lines above current position
T ---> top of screen
B ---> bottom of screen
M --> middle of screen
C-F --> page down
C-D --> 1/2 page down
C-B --> page up
C-U --> 1/2 page up
u --> return to previous mouse position
C-R --> go to next mouse position
you can use the "s" key for the selection mode.
s* --> select all files
s- --> unselect all files
s&* --> select all files with same name
s&- --> unselect all files with same name
se* --> select all files with same ext.
se- --> unselect all files with same ext.
sG10 --> select 10 lines (files) from cursor position to the bottom
sG-10 --> select 10 lines (files) from current cursor position to top
sgg --> select all lines from current position to top of file list.
sG --> select all lines from current position to bottom of file list.
s*jpg --> select all jpg's
S-jpg --> unselect all jpg's
etc
and even more important..
I would like to disable some keys p.e. "x" (delete a file).
Its too easy with the "x" key to delete files without knowledge.

Re: [plugin] New: The use of Vim Key In TotalCommander
A new version is here https://magicstep.github.io/viatc/
It is actively developed, it provides more enhancements and is easier to use.
x = close tab (same as in web browser plugins)
cc = delete
gg = top
G = bottom
Keys can be reconfigured or disabled.
