Vim is my favorite tool for programming in OSX, but my team mate all use NetBeans. Some of them use Eclipse Keymap. Any suggestion plug-in to enable VI command in NetBeans 6.5?

Check jVi, a Vi emulator for NetBeans.

I've also found ViEx, the project seems to be pretty active...

jVi can be installed using the NetBeans plugin manager; from NB do

Menu>Tools>Plugins

Select the tab "Available Plugins", in search enter "jvi". First install "jVi for NB-xx Update Center", then you can install jVi.

  • Cannot be in netbeans 8.0.2 – daparic Dec 13 '19 at 12:07
  • [jVi](http://jvi.sourceforge.net) works in every NetBeans release, AFAIK, since before NB-7.0 and to NB-11.x. What problem are you having @typelogic ? – Ernie Rael Dec 14 '19 at 15:16
  • I am only able to install the `jvi` plugin manager. Next I refreshed, and i did not see any `jvi` under the `Editors` category. – daparic Dec 14 '19 at 17:17
  • You can download a zip and manually install. Also can check NB messages.log for errors. Can email to jvi support, see website. – Ernie Rael Dec 16 '19 at 05:07
