Seemingly redundant and/or confusing default mappings

[Mathias M.]

Hi Joshua,

The cool thing is, you can just define them how you want to.

Here are my bindings so that pager and index behave vim like:

bind generic,index,browser g noop
bind generic,index,browser k previous-entry
bind generic,index,browser j next-entry
bind generic,index,browser gg first-entry
bind generic,index,browser G last-entry
bind pager gg top
bind pager j next-line
bind index J next-thread
bind index K previous-thread
bind pager k previous-line
bind pager G bottom

Regards,
Mathias

For every problem there is one solution which is simple, neat, and wrong.
