[RFC PATCH v1] edit: add vi alias with vi-style bindings

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The edit command already supports a few key bindings for code
navigation. To improve user experience for vi-impaired users, add a vi
alias that maps traditional vi key bindings to the barebox edit ones.
This is done by adding a mode-aware read_modal_key that maps vi
normal-mode keys to barebox edit's. For operations that requires more
than one barebox edit key, a backlog of two characters is additionally
used.

In interest of code size reduction, a command mode (and the associated
readline overhead) are not implemented, the effect of the most common
commands :q and :wq commands can be realized with vim-like ZQ and ZZ
bindings instead.

This increases the size of a compressed THUMB2 barebox by 733 bytes.
