Helix with things I like from Vim

Visual-line mode

Shift-V enters line-wise selection mode.

Delete with daw, diw, dt<char>, etc. Yank with yaw, yiw, yt<char>, etc.

Ex commands

One cursor.

Misc.

• Find to/through character does not select unless in visual mode.
• Exiting visual modes clears selection.
