I'm a Vim user. But more & more these days I find that one of my
favourite versions of Vim is Emacs. Specifically, its evil-mode
package, which is a very good Vim emulator1.
If you get started with evil-mode, one of the first questions you
might ask is, "How do I remap ESC to something more finger-friendly?"
Some people like to map jj. Personally I like jk, because it rolls
off the fingers a little more easily.
Anyway, there are a couple of ways to do it in Emacs. The simplest &
cleanest I've found is to install the key-chord package:
M-x package-install
key-chord...then add this to your .emacs file:
(require 'key-chord)
(key-chord-mode 1)
(key-chord-define evil-insert-state-map "jk" 'evil-normal-state)Easy.
