no worries, @kohane27 give that plug in a try, I think it might be what you need

My vim feature request: using ‘o’ should insert the - [ ] or whatever block you’re in. Not necessary, but would rule.

This one is crucial for me. Added matchbrackets.js manually and it seems to work fine. Asked developers to added in next versions. If not, will provide a plugin which adds this file.

that’s be awesome @mrjackphil in the mid-time do you have the matchbrackets.js to put on the console?

I use Ctrl+C or Ctrl+[ for esc on vim-mode. F.Y.I.
It would be hoped to use vim-mode feature for search, command palette, open note, …

I use :imap jj

This has be be applied with every session though.

I use this plugin https://github.com/esm7/obsidian-vimrc-support to load imap jj <Esc>. It works great for me.

For some reason my imap jk <esc> worked for a minute and now just deletes the jk and remains in insert mode. Any ides?

imap jj <Esc> is working for me. Using Obsidian 0.10.0

thank you for providing this plugin

imap jk <ESC> deletes jk without exiting insert mode for me on OSX with Obisidan 0.10.6 and the obsidian-vimrc-support plugin

EDIT Changing this to imap jk <Esc> did the trick

If I can use Vim navigation keys like j, k, ctrl+u, ctrl+d and search using /word in preview mode would be great. :smile:

Here’s my latest struggle: I can navigate to the link under the cursor with Alt+Enter, but when I try to remap this using the following command, it doesn’t work. :frowning:
nmap gd <A-CR>

Anyone have any luck remapping this?

Does holding down one of the hjkl keys not work for you?

Hi, holdiing down j/k/l/h for moving the cursor indeed does not work for me. I have to resort to f command to move around in the same line.
Do you know any fix for this while we all waiting for the neovim backend?

I found a fix for this on Mac, In Linux it worked without any issue, but with Mac there needs to be something done first

Here’s the solution if you are in mac

Thanks. That fixes it. Though the vim cursor is not responsive when hold down and only take effect when the key is released.
What even more weird is that I thought I have fixed this a while ago for my vim and terminal and stuff.

that’s really strange I never had that kind of issue, is the cursor delay only happening in Obsidian is it an issue in your terminal / vim as well?
