Does any IDE have a vi keybindings options? [closed]

Answer 1

You can try free Komodo Edit which has intgrated vi mode.

Answer 2

Editra has vi emulation, is cross platform, handles syntax highlighting, etc... seems nice. I've just started using it at home on my mac, and will probably switch to it in the office too.

Answer 3

There's jVi for NetBeans. There's also viPlugin for Eclipse, but it's not free. :(

Answer 4

I'm in the same boat. My brain thinks in vi, and coding with different keybindings is like trying to translate to a different language during a conversation.

I used viPlugin for a few years (up until 2008), but always had the impression it was masking lots of Eclipse goodness in terms of completion and lookup functionality and I just eventually reverted to command line vi again.

I'm going through a trial with Komodo right now, and I'm tempted to spring for the full blown commercial license. It builds in vi emulation, so it's a ground-up approach rather than some tacked-on add in.

Another path you might consider is taking steps to make vi more IDE-like, ala...

Answer 5

MonoDevelop can both embed vim as the editor and the default editor has a vi mode.

MonoDevelop is now available on Windows and Mac as well as Linux.

Answer 6

Try Activestate's Komodo IDE - there's a free Komodo Edit as well not sure if the bindings are included. I really like it particularly for perl and html/css work.
