Menu
Sometimes I use vim to write non-US text, and when I wanna use any command in normal mode, I need to change layout to US. It's possible to do that automatically?
PS. I can do mapping like this, but in this case command looks like :ц instead :w - not pretty and typo-risk.
Update
I don't want to use keymap option, because I prefer switch languages by CapsLock. I've try to write autocmd for InsertLeave event, but failed...
Update 2
Probably anybody know, why the following not work?
function SetUsLayout()
!setxkbmap us,ru
endfunction
autocmd InsertLeave * call SetUsLayout()

On a hardware keyboard, press and hold the Windows logo key , and then press the Spacebar to cycle through your input methods. If you have a touchscreen, you can switch your touch keyboard layout by tapping or clicking the keyboard icon, and then tapping or clicking the keyboard layout you want to switch to.
It made a world of a difference, as it was a lot more lax on my hands and as a bonus, made my WPM go higher. The only bad thing about it is that a majority of people use QWERTY, so when I am not using my personal keyboard, it can be a bother. But it is worth it.
