Change Keybindings

Help query: "How do I change keybindings?" / "How do I rebind F5?" / "How do I change the vim leader?"

Rust plugin bindings

Most chords are declared on a PluginPackage with PluginKeyBinding::new(chord, command, scope).

  1. Find the plugin in the catalog
  2. Edit the chord string in that module
  3. Rebuild the user package

Examples live on Edit a plugin.

Oil keybindings (YAML)

Edit user/config/oil.yaml — no rebuild required.

Scope matters

If a binding "does nothing", check PluginKeymapScope and optional Vim mode filters in Plugin concepts.
