Use vim shortcuts in TeXstudio

Question

I'm using TeXstudio to edit my *.tex files. Is there any way to add vim shortcuts to TeXstudio?

Answer 1

According to the issue on their Sourceforge tracker and an issue on GitHub, there is currently no way to add vim keybindings to TeXstudio.

You can use other vi supported IDE such as VIM-LaTeX or Kile (Which uses Kate as editor).

Edit: I ended up using VSCode for using latex with latex-workshop and vim extensions. Very convenient for me.

For basic latex (more precisely mathjax supported latex) there is also obsidian that has latex and vim support. There is an obsidian extension that allows configuring a vimrc file and i am currently trying out the latex suite extension which adds text expansion functionality for quickly typing latex which I am liking so far. – Embattle

I also read some comments about vimtex but I have not tried it yet – Embattle

Edit: Another suggestion for Github users. Use GitHub actions. :)

Here is an example for anyone who might be interested (Latex_Github_aciton)
