Vim my favourite keymapping
I don’t think that there is a single person who likes Vim’s Ex mode.
And keymapping used to trigger this shortcut, Q regularly gets occasionally
triggered.
A lot of people unmap it to prevent accidentally entering Ex mode, but for
myself I found a better solution:
nnoremap Q :quit<cr>
This keymap:
- Lets me close any window,including help pages, Fugitive windows or even Vim in a consistent way
- Feels very natural, easy to remember
- Easy to trigger
Since I’ve mapped it, I use it all the time. Give it a try, maybe you’ll find it as useful as I do.
