Visual Studio Code hotkeys keymap

Postby OSRK on Wed Feb 28, 2024 12:53 pm

Visual Studio Code's default hotkeys keymap is effectively incompatible with Dyalog Unicode IME keyboard, as it uses Ctrl [+ Shift] + alphanumeric keys really massively.

There are over 100 VSCode extensions with alternative keymaps: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/se ... =Relevance

Is there a recommended one, that is the best compatible with Dyalog Unicode IME keyboard? Or are there plans to create one?

Have you considered replacing Dyalog's IME instead of VS Codes's keymap?

At https://apl.wiki/Typing#Windows you can find alternatives to Dyalog's IME.

Visual Studio Code is not able to be a complete replacement for Dyalog IDE yet (or?), and having two different ways of input in the two IDEs is not an option.

You can safely uninstall Dyalog's IME (using the Dyalog uninstaller, uncheck the interpreter, so you only uninstall the IME) and use one of the alternatives both inside and outside the IME.
