= Keys
|
|
|
|
== Key Syntax
|
|
|
|
Usual keys are written using their ascii character, including capital
|
|
keys. Non printable keys use an alternate name, written between *<*
|
|
and *>*, such as *<esc>* or *<del>*. Modified keys are written between
|
|
*<* and *>* as well, with the modifier specified as either *c* for
|
|
Control, *a* for Alt, or *s* for Shift, followed by a *-* and the key (either
|
|
its name or ascii character), for example *<c-x>*, *<a-space>*, *<c-a-w>*.
|
|
|
|
In order to bind some keys to arbitrary ones, refer to <<mapping#,`:doc mapping`>>
|
|
|
|
== Insert mode
|
|
|
|
*<esc>*::
|
|
leave insert mode
|
|
|
|
*<backspace>*::
|
|
delete characters before cursors
|
|
|
|
*<del>*::
|
|
delete characters under cursors
|
|
|
|
*<left>*, *<right>*, *<up>*, *<down>*::
|
|
move the cursors in given direction
|
|
|
|
*<home>*::
|
|
move cursors to line begin
|
|
|
|
*<end>*::
|
|
move cursors to end of line
|
|
|
|
*<c-r>*::
|
|
insert contents of the register given by next key
|
|
|
|
*<c-v>*::
|
|
insert next keystroke directly into the buffer, without interpreting it
|
|
|
|
*<c-u>*::
|
|
commit changes up to now as a single undo group
|
|
|
|
*<a-;>*, *<a-semicolon>*::
|
|
escape to normal mode for a single command
|
|
|
|
== Insert mode completion
|
|
|
|
The `completers` option controls automatic completion, which kicks in when
|
|
the value specified in the `idle_timeout` option is reached.
|
|
|
|
*<c-o>*::
|
|
toggle automatic completion
|
|
|
|
*<c-n>*::
|
|
select next completion candidate
|
|
|
|
*<c-p>*::
|
|
select previous completion candidate
|
|
|
|
*<c-x>*::
|
|
explicit insert completion query, followed by:
|
|
|
|
*f*:::
|
|
explicit file completion
|
|
|
|
*w*:::
|
|
explicit word completion (current buffer)
|
|
|
|
*W*:::
|
|
explicit word completion (all buffers)
|
|
|
|
*l*:::
|
|
explicit line completion (current buffer)
|
|
|
|
*L*:::
|
|
explicit line completion (all buffers)
|
|
|
|
== Using Counts
|
|
|
|
In normal mode, commands can be prefixed with a numeric `count`, which can control
|
|
the command behaviour.
|
|
|
|
For example, *3W* selects 3 consecutive words and *3w* select the third word on
|
|
the right of the end of each selection.
|
|
|
|
== Disabling Hooks
|
|
|
|
Any normal mode command can be prefixed with `\` which will disable hook execution
|
|
for the duration for the command (including the duration of modes the command could
|
|
move to, so `\i` will disable hooks for the whole insert session) (see
|
|
<<hooks#,`:doc hooks`>>).
|
|
|
|
As autoindentation is implemented in terms of hooks, this can be used to disable
|
|
it when pasting text.
|
|
|
|
== Movement
|
|
|
|
'word' is a sequence of alphanumeric characters, or those in the `extra_word_chars`
|
|
option (see <<options#builtin-options,`:doc options builtin-options`>>).
|
|
'WORD' is a sequence of non whitespace characters. Generally, a movement on its own
|
|
will move each selection to cover the text moved over, while holding down
|
|
the Shift modifier and moving will extend each selection instead.
|

== Object Selection
|
|
|
|
For nestable objects, a `count` can be used in order to specify which surrounding
|
|
level to select. Object selections are repeatable using *<a-.>*.
|
|
|
|
=== Whole object
|
|
|
|
A 'whole object' is an object *including* its surrounding characters.
|
|
For example, for a quoted string this will select the quotes, and
|
|
for a word this will select trailing spaces.
|
|
|
|
*<a-a>*::
|
|
select the whole object
|
|
|
|
*[*::
|
|
select to the whole object start

|
|
|
*]*::
|
|
select to the whole object end
|
|
|
|
*{*::
|
|
extend selections to the whole object start
|
|
|
|
*}*::
|
|
extend selections to the whole object end
|
|
|
|
=== Inner object
|
|
|
|
An 'inner object' is an object *excluding* its surrounding characters.
|
|
For example, for a quoted string this will *not* select the quotes, and
|
|
for a word this will *not* select trailing spaces.
|
|
|
|
*<a-i>*::
|
|
select the inner object
|
|
|
|
*<a-[>*::
|
|
select to the inner object start
|
|
|
|
*<a-]>*::
|
|
select to the inner object end
|
|
|
|
*<a-{>*::
|
|
extend selections to the inner object start
|
|
|
|
*<a-}>*::
|
|
extend selections to the inner object end
|
|

=== Objects types
|
|
|
|
After the keys described above, a second key needs to be entered
|
|
in order to specify the wanted object:

|
|

|
|
context (See <<expansions#,`:doc expansions`>>)
|
|
|
|
If a punctuation character is entered, it will act as the delimiter.
|
|
For instance, if the cursor is on the `o` of `/home/bar`, typing
|
|
`<a-a>/` will select `/home/`.
|
|
|
|
== Prompt commands
|
|
|
|
When pressing `:` in normal mode, Kakoune will open a prompt to enter
|
|
a command. The executed command line is stored in the *:* register
|
|
(See <<registers#,`:doc registers`>>).
|
|
|
|
During edition, a transient *clipboard* is available, its content is
|
|
empty at the start of prompt edition, and is not preserved afterwards.
|
|
