Modes
Like vim, Heed has modes. The status bar always shows which one you are in.
| Mode | Your keys go to | Enter | Leave |
|---|---|---|---|
| NORMAL | Heed: every key is a command | (the default) | |
| INSERT | The focused terminal | i, or click a pane |
⇧⎋ or ⌃\ |
| VISUAL | Selecting rows to act on | v |
⎋ |
| COMMAND | The command line | : |
⎋, or ↩ to run |
| HINT | Jump labels | f (F jumps into INSERT) |
type a label, or ⎋ |
In NORMAL no key ever reaches a terminal, so nothing you type there can end up in an agent by accident. The standard
Mac shortcuts (⌘W, ⌘Q, ⌘H, ⌘M) work in every mode; see Mac shortcuts.
