The goal: make usual VIM actions (nagivation, changing modes, etc.) available for Russian keyboard layout.
I’m writing lots of TeX in Russian and being forced to constantly switch layouts to make any simple action really slows me down… and drives crazy. It doesn’t really matter much whether I’m pressing “k” or “л” – it’s the same key on the keyboard.
So, this is going to be a small spacemacs layer (or a standalone package, we’ll see) that will make Evil talk Russian.
To use this contribution:
- clone the layer to your
~/.emacs.d/layers/private
, - add it to your
~/.spacemacs
