imvim 🔥

The New and Improved Vi Improved™

Ever felt annoyed by Vim commands and want something that definitely makes more sense? Well then, imvim is totally n̶o̶t̶ for you!!

Including:

• a brand new text-editor in Tkinter
• much more intuitive keybinds...
• AND a level system to introduce these keybinds... gradually 😊

The keybinds 🎉

(ignore how it's a pic straight from hackathon showcase)

Notable features:

• u, d, l, r and up, down, left, right arrows swapped
• Colemak lowercase
• alphabetical uppercase
• 4-bit binary for each digit (enter LSB first)
• centralised brackets

Tech stack 💪

Python, Tkinter, thats pretty much it

Want to use imvim as your terminal text editor?

Now you can, thanks to the awesome @alegs-a who created a .imvimrc for us that turns stock vim into feature-complete imvim 🔥

To use, simply download the .imvimrc file from the source files (and add to home directory!!), then add alias imvim="vim -S $HOME/.imvimrc" to your .bashrc or similar. Now you can run imvim file.txt just like you're used to!
