Yes, I know the concept. But, unfortunately and at least in my case, ';' is not on the homerow. I don't mind having to adjust .i3/config. What I don't understand is why is shifted. Is it to make room for Mod+h (horizontal) and make it coherent? Sorry, but to me, it doesn't make sense to use 'jkl;' in i3 and jump to all vi-based apps and use 'hjkl'. Of course, I can configure all programs to use 'jkl;' too (ksh in vi-mode, vimperator, xxxterm, mutt, vim itself, muttator, etc.), but this is even more non-sense. > I personally don't care that much about “historical reasons”, the whole > qwertz-layout-thing is due to “historical reasons” and it sucks ;) Yes but it's what we have available. I never saw a non-QWERTY layout with my own eyes. Thank you.
