smart-splits.nvim VS better-escape.nvim

other custom kittens you may have created or installed eg. smart-splits.nvim

for neovim it's probably worth pointing out smart-splits.nvim btw which has additional multiplexer support

mrjones2014/smart-splits.nvim - nicer window switching/resizing

If the behavior doesn't match or you just want something better then check out https://github.com/mrjones2014/smart-splits.nvim

The plugin we use for this is: https://github.com/mrjones2014/smart-splits.nvim

I use https://github.com/mrjones2014/smart-splits.nvim with the following keybindings:

If i understood correctly, smart-splits.nvim might do just what you want

smart-splits.nvim

For me it's better-escape.nvim -> Escape from insert mode without delay when typing

max397574/better-escape.nvim - i use jk/kj for insert mode so this makes it smoother

I'm trying to install https://github.com/max397574/better-escape.nvim in a separate file in .config/nvim/lua/plugins.

I just tested a probably hacky and unintentional way around this, but better-escape lets you remap sequences in i-mode to do kinda whatever. In the 'keys' key of the config table, it defaults to '' but I changed it to ':wi' and it seems to work. Don't want to be the person that tells you to rely on this for some big project without serious testing though.

I could use better-escape.nvim so that there's less probability of clashing. Not sure how practical so that it's 100% no clashing. I never have any clashes with jk.

Maybe try the better escape plugin and set the escape key in that plugin to ":w!".

I like using better-escape.nvim as it removes the delay that you get with using a mapping. You can certainly use a mapping for it, but it's much more comfortable with this plugin.

I also use "jk", like a tons of people I think, additionally I installed this little plugin that make the experience veeeery smooth: better-escape
