Feature Request: an option to add vimrc file

Open coditva opened this issue 7 years ago • 2 comments

An option to add a vimrc file would be very welcome. Love the plugin btw, works like a charm!

Yes, I would love to have the ability to remap some keys.. eg. inoremap jj <Esc>

Any idea how this could be implemented?

Using a real vimrc file sounds cool, but there might be some unforeseen problems. This plugin doesn't mimic all vim behaviour, and not 100% faithfully, so some lines of the file would just be silently ignored or act incorrectly. A potential "softer" solution would be to add a settings window to the plugin, accessible from gedit's plugins list, for common ways people configure vim. (#15)

I made a separate issue for remapping keys, #14.
