If you’re going to suggest vim bindings, fine, I get it; but the act of moving a cursor around to insert, remove, replace, or otherwise refactor parts of code is pretty essential to my workflow and I can’t imagine how someone wouldn’t need it. I use structural editing shortcuts quite a bit, but not 100% of the time.


I'd guess that people who aren't mac-native don't realize how well the various arrow and option/ctrl/command/shift combinations work for editing.

Or, uh, did. Before, y'know, they stopped providing a T-shaped arrow panel.


I think you’d be surprised as to how many people just use the mouse for that.
