Minor modes

These sub-modes are accessible from normal mode and typically switch back to normal mode after a command.

View mode

View mode is intended for scrolling and manipulating the view without changing the selection. The "sticky" variant of this mode is persistent; use the Escape key to return to normal mode after usage (useful when you're simply looking over text and not actively editing it).

Key Description Command
z , c Vertically center the line align_view_center
t Align the line to the top of the screen align_view_top
b Align the line to the bottom of the screen align_view_bottom
m Align the line to the middle of the screen (horizontally) align_view_middle

k Scroll the view upwards scroll_up
f Move page down page_down
b Move page up page_up

u Move half page up half_page_up

Goto mode

Jumps to various locations.

NOTE: Some of these features are only available with the LSP present.

e Go to the end of the file goto_last_line
h Go to the start of the line goto_line_start
l Go to the end of the line goto_line_end
s Go to first non-whitespace character of the line goto_first_nonwhitespace
t Go to the top of the screen goto_window_top
m Go to the middle of the screen goto_window_middle
b Go to the bottom of the screen goto_window_bottom
d Go to definition goto_definition
y Go to type definition goto_type_definition
r Go to references goto_reference
i Go to implementation goto_implementation
a Go to the last accessed/alternate file goto_last_accessed_file

Match mode

Enter this mode using m from normal mode. See the relavant section in Usage for an explanation about surround and textobject usage.

Key Description Command
m Goto matching bracket match_brackets
s <char> Surround current selection with <char> surround_add
r <from><to> Replace surround character <from> with <to> surround_replace
d <char> Delete surround character <char> surround_delete
a <object> Select around textobject select_textobject_around
i <object> Select inside textobject select_textobject_inner

TODO: Mappings for selecting syntax nodes (a superset of [).

Window mode

This layer is similar to vim keybindings as kakoune does not support window.

Key Description Command
w, Ctrl-w Switch to next window rotate_view
v, Ctrl-v Vertical right split vsplit
h, Ctrl-h Horizontal bottom split hsplit
q, Ctrl-q Close current window wclose

Space mode

This layer is a kludge of mappings, mostly pickers.

Key Description Command
f Open file picker file_picker
b Open buffer picker buffer_picker
s Open symbol picker (current document) symbol_picker
a Apply code action code_action
' Open last fuzzy picker last_picker
w Enter window mode N/A
space Keep primary selection TODO: it's here because space mode replaced it keep_primary_selection
p Paste system clipboard after selections paste_clipboard_after
P Paste system clipboard before selections paste_clipboard_before
y Join and yank selections to clipboard yank_joined_to_clipboard
Y Yank main selection to clipboard yank_main_selection_to_clipboard
R Replace selections by clipboard contents replace_selections_with_clipboard

Unimpaired

Mappings in the style of vim-unimpaired.

Key Description Command
[d Go to previous diagnostic goto_prev_diag
]d Go to next diagnostic goto_next_diag
[D Go to first diagnostic in document goto_first_diag
]D Go to last diagnostic in document goto_last_diag
[space Add newline above add_newline_above
]space Add newline below add_newline_below

Insert Mode

Key Description Command
Escape Switch to normal mode normal_mode
Ctrl-x Autocomplete completion
Ctrl-w Delete previous word delete_word_backward

Select / extend mode

I'm still pondering whether to keep this mode or not. It changes movement commands (including goto) to extend the existing selection instead of replacing it.

NOTE: It's a bit confusing at the moment because extend hasn't been implemented for all movement commands yet.

Picker

Keys to use within picker. Remapping currently not supported.

Key Description
Up, Ctrl-p Previous entry
Down, Ctrl-n Next entry
Ctrl-space Filter options
Enter Open selected
Ctrl-h Open horizontally
Ctrl-v Open vertically
Escape, Ctrl-c Close picker
