This project implements vi like keys for any arbitrary editor like app on windows as far as possible.

Eg w es emulated by and e is emulated by

This is a rewrite of http://www.autohotkey.com/forum/topic44762.html cleaning up the code removing much repetition.

TODO: implement searches: /?*# (depend on window. Probably ctl-f can be used almost everywhere, but setting forward / backward might be different)

implement visual selection mode (needs state)

implement things like { } etc. Strategy: Copy whole buffer to clipboard, use shift-END or such to find position of cursor using this "current" line calculate movement options

Note: Don't think that this comes even close to Vim features. But it works everywhere

TODO:

  • make it switch off vi mode if user changes app manually eg by alt-tab
