C-x C-Y/Z

For me with this position even C-D/E would be uncomfortable. So how to go about that?

[–] Shareni 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Use the opposite hand to press C?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

Oh yeah. I literally have never pressend this button before and therefore forgot about it. blushes

[–] Hexarei 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Huh. That's neat. Can't say whether it works, as I Ctrl with my thumb using a thumb cluster on my Dactyl Manuform

[–] Shareni 1 points 8 months ago

It takes a bit of practice, but then it's great.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago (2 children)

pinkies? well everyone has to press enter

but Caps-Lock is rare occasion key

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago (2 children)

I use capslock for ctrl

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago

Sorry, but why?

I'm used to Ctrl+Shift as palm combination, so I can't figure why skip Ctrl

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago

Once you do this there's no coming back.

[–] Hexarei 2 points 8 months ago

My enter key is on my dactyl manuforms thumb cluster

Evil mode for the win

[–] Hexarei 1 points 8 months ago

Yeah, evil mode worked pretty well when I tried it. But then I kept hitting things that just made me want to go back to neovim.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago

The only thing better than vim keybindings for programming is vim keybindings for org mode (I know neovim has some org mode stuff but it isn’t the same as full blown org mode in emacs).

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Um akshually emacs is bad becuz it does follow the unix philosophy

[–] [email protected] 6 points 8 months ago (1 children)

But gnu's not unix...

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

Exactly
