Keys

kew’s bindings, unchanged where they made sense.

vim preset

Set keys = "vim" in the config, or pick it from esc → options → key bindings. The transport keys stay put; navigation becomes what your fingers already know.

Key	Does
j k	move the selection
gg G	top / bottom
ctrl+d ctrl+u	half page
ctrl+f ctrl+b	full page
H L	previous / next track
w b	seek forward / back
J K	move a track down / up the queue
x dd	remove from the queue
o	play the selection immediately
c	show / hide the cover

h and l are motions here, which is why the transport moves to H and L. In the library’s column view h and l step out of and into a level.

Everything not listed is unchanged.

Tip

The hint line at the bottom of the screen is generated from whichever preset is active, so what it shows is always the truth — it is not a hardcoded list.
