Google Chrome

F to follow them on a new page,

gy to copy a link's URL to the keyboard

/ to find text, v to select and copy it

.cvimrc to re-enable keyboard shortcuts in sites like twitter, github, and others, and make it compatible with JK Navigator. Here's mine, still tweaking it though.

Mac OS X

Enable cycling between all controls with Tab:

Use Caps Lock for Escape when pressed alone or Control when pressed with another key. Here's a great writeup on this using Karabiner, which also lets you increase the key repeat, and other fancy keyboard-related stuff.

Alfred, better Spotlight.

Homebrew Cask, to install apps with the command line. No more go-to-webpage-download-dmg-mount-drag-open nonsense.

Grid, window manager. Move windows around and between monitors:



Shortcat, use the keyboard to click anything on the screen in Mac OS X.

Atom editor

⇧ + ⌥ + K: Delete line

⌘ + D: "Magic" selector, just like Sublime Text:



⌘ + L: Select line

Ctrl + ⌘ + Up/Down: Move line(s) up and down

⌘ + Z,Y: Go back to where I was (hacky, but works!)

Slack

iTerm

Ctrl + A: Go to start of line

Ctrl + E: Go to end of line

Ctrl + U: Kill line

⌥ + D: Delete word in front of the cursor

Ctrl + P / Ctrl + N: Navigate history

⌘ + Up: Scroll up one line

⌘ + Down: Scroll down one line

Fn + ⌘ + Up: Page Up

Fn + ⌘ + Down: Page Down

bindkey '^P' up-history bindkey '^N' down-history

Pending work (comment if you know how to fix these things please!)

Chrome tab-hell: After doing ⌘ + L to focus the omnibar, I can't find a way to focus the tab's content without tabbing through all the extension buttons.

Gmail: It has too many keyboard shortcuts to ignore them in the .cvimrc, but by itself I can't click on links easily.

Move tabs around in Chrome and Atom: Can be done in iTerm with ⌘ + ⇧ + Left/Right, but can't find a way to do it anywhere else.

I developed this set of solutions after a couple of weeks of suffering hand and arm pain due to work. I spent 8+ hours a day in front of my computer, so the combination of arm movement between the trackpad and keyboard, and the trackpad (later mouse) itself were provoking me a lot of inflammation related pain. A week of only using the keyboard, and it was gone!Something like this is great for people with Carpal Tunnel Syndrome or related ailments, I can vouch for it. If you need help setting it up, just say so in the comments, and I'll do my best to help.It's all about cVim , Vim for Chrome.My favorite features:Plenty of shortcuts out-of-the-box, the ones I use the most:I'm using the web version now, it feels as performant as the native one (which seems to use node-webkit or something like that), and I can use all the cvim shortcuts. The only change I've had to get used to is using ⌘ + K instead of ⌘ + T to switch between chats. Readline all the way! Lots of command line utilities use it or mimic it, they even work in places like Chrome's omnibar. This are the ones I abuse the most:To use Ctrl + P / Ctrl + N I put this on my .zshrc:Most of all,Every time you find yourself reaching for it, think again—there's surely a better way without it, you just haven't discovered it yet.
