One possibility: define a set of minibuffer-specific commands, corresponding to the commands in @shortcuts Minibuffer commands/bindings in leoSettings.leo. Here are the present bindings: full-command = Alt-x keyboard-quit = Ctrl-g negative-argument = None # Alt-minus conflicts with contract-all. repeat-complex-command = Ctrl-P universal-argument = Alt-u # Usually Ctrl-u, conflicts with move-outline-up. # Top-level bindings are *not* inherited in the minibuffer! copy-text ! mini = Ctrl-c cut-text ! mini = Ctrl-x paste-text ! mini = Ctrl-v save-file ! mini = Ctrl-s # Important: at present binding to BackSpace in the minibuffer causes problems. # backward-delete-char ! mini = BackSpace back-char ! mini = LtArrow back-char-extend-selection ! mini = Shift-LtArrow back-word ! mini = Alt-b back-word-extend-selection ! mini = Alt-Shift-b # back-word ! mini = Ctrl-LtArrow # back-word-extend-selection ! mini = Ctrl-Shift-LtArrow backward-kill-word ! mini = Alt-Delete beginning-of-line ! mini = Home beginning-of-line-extend-selection ! mini = Shift-Home beginning-of-line ! mini = Ctrl-a beginning-of-line-extend-selection ! mini = Ctrl-Shift-a dabbrev-completion = Alt-\ dabbrev-expands = Alt-Ctrl-\ end-of-line ! mini = End end-of-line-extend-selection ! mini = Shift-End end-of-line ! mini = Ctrl-e end-of-line-extend-selection ! mini = Ctrl-Shift-e forward-char ! mini = RtArrow forward-char-extend-selection ! mini = Shift-RtArrow forward-word = None ### ! mini = Alt-f # Usually opens file menu. forward-word-extend-selection = None ### ! mini = Alt-Shift-f # forward-word ! mini = Ctrl-RtArrow # forward-word-extend-selection ! mini = Ctrl-Shift-RtArrow kill-line ! mini = Ctrl-K select-all ! mini = Alt-Shift-A yank ! mini = Ctrl-Y # Find options. Important: conflicts with non-minibuffer bindings do not matter here! find-next ! mini = F3 find-prev ! mini = F2 change ! mini =Ctrl-= change-then-find ! mini = Ctrl-- set-find-everywhere ! mini = Alt-Ctrl-e set-find-node-only ! mini = Alt-Ctrl-n set-find-suboutline-only ! mini = Alt-Ctrl-s toggle-find-ignore-case-option ! mini = Alt-Ctrl-i toggle-find-in-body-option ! mini = Alt-Ctrl-b toggle-find-in-headline-option ! mini = Alt-Ctrl-h toggle-find-mark-changes-option ! mini = Alt-Ctrl-c toggle-find-mark-finds-option ! mini = Alt-Ctrl-f toggle-find-regex-option ! mini = Alt-Ctrl-x toggle-find-reverse-option ! mini = Alt-Ctrl-r toggle-find-word-option ! mini = Alt-Ctrl-w toggle-find-wrap-around-option ! mini = Alt-Ctrl-a We needn't augment commands such as the toggle-x commands that do not affect the cursor, but we might define commands corresponding to, for example, back-char back-char-extend-selection back-word back-word-extend-selection like this: minibuffer-back-char ! mini = LtArrow minibuffer-back-char-extend-selection ! mini = Shift-LtArrow minibuffer-back-word ! mini = Alt-b minibuffer-back-word-extend-selection etc! These commands would bypass editCommands.editWidget(). That is, they would always use the minibuffer widget as their target. It's not clear whether this approach is too ugly to survive. I'll keep it the back of my mind, though. **Important**: I've known all along that the vim-bindings project wasn't going to be easy, so I am in no way surprised or disheartened. Making Leo "just work" with regard to bindings is always going to be a big, big task. Edward P.S. Most (all?) of the difficulties come from allowing user-specified bindings for the minibuffer. I'm not going to give this up, regardless of the difficulties.
