Using Glove80 keyboard.

Using WhatPulse to track keyboard input.

TODO:

Try kanata.
Try Glove80 Layout Editor.
Try ZMK or QMK.

Neovim

My neovim config powered by LazyVim.

TODO:

Try NvChad, LazyVim, Kickstart, AstroNvim by Lazyman.
Find a set of keybindings that can be used everywhere, equivalent mapping configurations for other VIM integrations:
- IDE
- File manager
  - Terminal: Yazi
  - Neovim: neo-tree.nvim
  - VSCode: Built-in Explorer view
  - IdeaVim: NERDTree
- Others

Tips:

Remap esc.
- For all keyboard (mainly for Apple Internal Keyboard): remap jk to esc by karabiner.
- For Glove80 specifically: remap one of the thumb keys to esc by karabiner.
- In vim(s): inoremap jj <esc> or inoremap jk <esc>.
Turn up Key repeat rate and turn down Delay until repeat in System Settings -> Keyboard. See .macos.
When leaving insert mode, auto switch IME to English (if necessary).
- By Rime's vim_mode app option, see squirrel.custom.yaml.
- Use vim.g.neovide_input_ime with autocmd in Neovide.
Remap shift (optional).
- For all keyboard: remap space to shift by karabiner.
  
  The original tap and hold (repeat) functions of space are still available.

Using InputSourcePro to keep Squirrel as the only input source on macOS, instead of ABC.

And using ShowyEdge to notice when input source automatically changes to ABC.
