crkbd VS vimac

I am trying to make a driver board for a trackpoint module. I have been following the instructions in the GitHub repository (https://github.com/manna-harbour/crkbd/tree/master/trackpoint) and found some helpful pictures (https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipN-g61hYbBhwOErVaDARWP4fk5UqttkEkYN1Qzg_oO31v05qlJ-Y73XoyO_E6Bccw?key=RU5qcXplN3dXV1BnME42QnlFS0RwRlVaODQ1Z3hB) and blog post (https://rfong.github.io/rflog/2021/10/26/r61-trackpoint-pt2/) as well.

Ever since the illustrious /u/manna_harbour started sharing corne builds with integrated trackpoints, I'd been on the lookout for a way to get an integrated pointing device, but with my limited (or non-existent) hardware skills, it always seemed out of reach. Enter /u/sadekbaroudi and his faux fox keyboard (ffkb). For the first time, I found a kit which looked like it could bring integrated pointing to the masses with the cirque touchpad, and my resolve was finally broken. I caved and made my first purchase in two years. The fingerpunch discord community has proven to be an awesome and helpful place, as they've provided endless support with tweaking the cirque and debugging any firmware issues that have arisen (which have honestly been pretty limited for me).

You could do it like this: crkbd hotswap trackpoint. ThinkPad keyboard modules can be found on AliExpress for around USD10, but if you have to find the right model if you want to disassemble the trackpoint module to fit completely in that space.

Excellent, glad it helped! If you do want to add a trackpoint to complete the ThinkPad look, you can do it like this. For lowpro you can rearrange the components a bit to reduce the height.

I only succeeded thanks to /u/manna_harbour and his [guide](https://github.com/manna-harbour/crkbd/blob/master/trackpoint/readme.org) for corne.

Probably worth saying there are a handful of alternatives (I've tried most and ShortCat is my favorite): * Wooshy * Vimac * HomeRow * SuperKey * VimMotionApp

If you like vimium, there's an app called Vimac that's like vimium but for macOS. So you can control all kinds of apps with they keyboard like in vimium.

Vimac

It is inspired by Vimium! In fact, when I when 17, I made Vimac (https://vimacapp.com) because I had wrist pain from a semester of using the trackpad to do Figma + Photoshop, and really wished there was Vimium for the entire OS. Few years later now, I've reworked the workflow incorporating the lessons I've learned and called it Homerow.

P.S. I also made Vimac (https://vimacapp.com) a few years back. Homerow is a more polished and performant version of Vimac, taking into account all the things I learned from its predecessor.

I would like to have an equivalent to vimac.

System wide, if you use a Mac check out KindaVim and Homerow or its unmaintained predecessor Vimac

It is definitely a more intuitive app than Vimac

Vimac: for navigating the UI without moving the trackpad
