Feature request: support for Vim commands

CodeMirror has this, perhaps it's doable?

It probably would be doable somehow, but also increase complexity of PanWriter by quite a lot. But I would probably either:

  • use vscode (or Atom) with a vim extension and with any of the pandoc preview extensions (e.g. https://github.com/ickc/vscode-markdown-it-pandoc/ uses the same preview as PanWriter)
  • https://github.com/jgm/pandoc/wiki/Pandoc-Extras and search for vim

Thanks for your reply and the suggestions. I am not a coder, so I'm probably mistaken, but I was under the impression that te CodeMirrow Vim library could be easily activated, and at least in terms of UI (which is probably not what you meant) having Vim capabilities 'under the hood' wouldn't increase complexity. I hope you'll consider it some more :-)
