[Feature request] Specify the range of letters used for jumping (eg [asdfghj])

Opened this issue · 3 comments

First of all, it is a great extension, thank you!

I would appreciate the possibility to limit/specify the range of letters used for jumping, as for example in the vimium extension for Chrome or Mozilla.

At the moment, the used range is [a-z]{2}.
What about [asdfghjkl]{1,3}, (eg one letter jumps to words/lines closest to the cursor)?

I just find that alphabetical order of jumps is not the most keyboard friendly.
Letters from middle keyboard row are easier to reach, imho.

Thanks!

Hi, are there any additional features you'd like to see along with ability to specify you'r own jump alphabet?

I've implemented what you've written here but I don't have an idea on how to make it user friendly in terms of settings.

I really like the idea of being combined line and word jump you mentioned.

Hi! Thanks for coming back on this topic!
No, for the moment I do not have any other ideas... but I am looking forward to try out specifying my own range of letters (if that is what you have just implemented, as I understood).

btw I use your extension along MetaGo, which also allows selecting text with a jump. I like both!

Thanks!

@PavelDvorak You can use Jump instead, it supports this feature.
