  • hydra

    make Emacs bindings that stick around (by abo-abo)

  • Alternatively, you could try a hydra. I also bound god-mode-all to a key-chord, which makes it easier to go between god-mode and insert mode, but wouldn't make it automatic.

  • meow

    Yet another modal editing on Emacs / 猫态编辑 (by meow-edit)

  • I was thinking about this a little more and Meow has something known as keypad mode that basically lets you call key combinations then return to Normal mode. It behaves a lot like god-mode. I just tested it out and if you install Meow you can call keypad-mode from insert and then automatically return to insert mode.

  • key-chord

    Map pairs of simultaneously pressed keys to commands

  • Alternatively, you could try a hydra. I also bound god-mode-all to a key-chord, which makes it easier to go between god-mode and insert mode, but wouldn't make it automatic.

  • smart-god-mode

    No tests yet for merging into main branch!

  • But at this point, it seems we are just trying to predict when we want god-mode and when not. I had set up a not-smart smart-god-mode a while ago. Its smart in the sense it allows you to set certain preferences about when do you want to go into god-mode and when you want to exit. It is dumb in the sense it does not learn anything, all the preferences are hardcoded.
