I wonder what it would be like to design a phone keyboard specifically to be used with vim

@mcc the Touch Pro 2's keyboard was pretty excellent. https://m.gsmarena.com/htc_touch_pro2-pictures-2690.php

With the adjustable tilt, I haven't seen any other phone get this right.

@mcc but if you're just talking about onscreen keyboards, Hacker Keyboard is it.

@hyc @mcc As someone who's used Happy Hacking Keyboards for mumblety-mumble years, I get where you're coming from on that on-screen keyboard.

But if I were designing an on-screen keyboard to be optimized for vi, the `:` character would not require pressing the Shift key or a long-press.

@DocBohn @mcc I'm surprised no one has done a keyboard with configurable keys yet.
