Config file for exiting insert mode

[bytesizelearning]

Now that Xcode handles insert mode it is no longer possible to map a key sequence to exit insert mode. Personally this was the only imap mapping I used, so it would be great to get some sort of configuration file maybe in json similar to how Sublime handles it.

{ "keys": ["j", "j"], "command": "exit_insert_mode" }

Would love to hear your opinions on it.

Agreed, this is such a common use case that it might be worth being implemented in ShadowVim.

Ideally, we could support arbitrary mappings and actions. But a first step could be just an option to exit insert mode when a set of letters is pressed.

If someone wants to take a stab at this, you should be able here to accumulate the key events until it matches jj, and if not send them to Neovim with .nvimInput(...).
