Has anyone been able to enable or use vim mode in RStudio? I'm using a new version of RStudio, (3.3.2 (2016-10-31)). The only instructions are from three or four years ago, and the screenshot of the GUI is different than what I use. (tools->global options->code->editing). There's no checkbox to enable it. I am very hopeful that it still exists
to enable Preferences → Text Editing → Editing → Enable Vim key bindings.
Command mode This mode allows you to use Vim commands and move through your document. From command mode, you can also use last-line commands, which generally start with the use of a colon. For example, :w saves your file and :q allows you to exit Vim.
Here is what RStudio support team says:
Switching to Vim Editing Mode
The option is under options->code->editing->keybindings, from the dropdown select Vim.
