Commands design

[icorbrey]

I would like to mirror Helix's modal command sets, where the core modes (in jjj these will likely be the change log, the operation log, and maybe files?) can each have their own set of keys that map to direct commands, with minor modes that spawn custom menus.

Example config

[jjj.keys.change]
j = "move_visual_line_down"
k = "move_visual_line_up"
o = "operation_mode"
"/" = "search"

[jjj.keys.change.space.keys.g]
name = "Git commands..."

[jjj.keys.change.space.keys.g.keys]
f = "git_fetch"
p = "git_push"

[jjj.keys.change.space.keys.g.keys.r]
name = "Remote commands..."

[jjj.keys.change.space.keys.g.keys.r.keys]
a = "git_remote_add"
d = "git_remote_remove"
l = "git_remote_list"
r = "git_remote_rename"

[jjj.keys.operation]
esc = "normal_mode"

Hi @icorbrey! I stumbled across jjj today at work and would like to work on this (I have the code for move_visual_line_down and move_visual_line_up already :D). Do you accept PRs?

[icorbrey]

Sure do! I have some existing work that's still very WIP, but it's something that can likely easily be integrated with your work. Check out the feat/commands branch if you'd like, I'm trying to work out some of the architectural work needed to support commands as a whole

Will do! Thanks for the hint :)
