1## Overview
2
3* There are only currently two modes, normal mode and insert mode.
4* Motions have repeat support, `d3w` will delete three words.
5* Insert mode can be entered using `i`, `I`, `a`, `A`, `o`, or `O`.
6 * The following commands are supported in insert mode:
7 * `ctrl-y` to copy the character right above the cursor
8 * `ctrl-e` to copy the character right below the cursor (**disabled by default**, see note 1 below)
9* Replace mode can be entered using `R`
10 * Limitations:
11 * If repeating with `.` gets a bit confused (e.g. by multiple cursors or when more than one line was typed), please report it with steps to reproduce if you can.
12* Registers are a work in progress
13 * What Exists:
14 * `a-z` - Named registers
15 * `A-Z` - Appending to named registers
16 * `*`, `+` - System clipboard registers, although there's no distinction between the two currently.
17 * `%` - Current filename read-only register
18 * `_` - Blackhole register
19 * What Doesn't Exist:
20 * default buffer doesn't yet save on delete operations.
21* Setting `wrapLeftRightMotion` acts like VIM's whichwrap=h,l,<,>
