Input Bindings
You can customize all input bindings in the configuration. An input binding is a mapping between an action (a high-level verb) and one or more key combinations.
For example if you want vim bindings (h/j/k/l instead of left/down/up/right):
# config.yaml
input_bindings:
up: [k]
down: [j]
left: [h]
right: [l]
scroll_left: [shift h]
scroll_right: [shift l]
select_recipe_list: [p] # Rebind from `l`
Each action maps to a list of key combinations, because you can map multiple combinations to a single action. Hitting any of these combinations will trigger the action. By defining a binding in the config, you will replace the default binding for that action. If you want to retain the default binding but add an additional, you will need to include the default in your list of custom bindings. For example, if you want vim bindings but also want to leave the existing arrow key controls in place:
input_bindings:
up: [up, k]
down: [down, j]
left: [left, h]
right: [right, l]
scroll_left: [shift left, shift h]
scroll_right: [shift right, shift l]
select_recipe_list: [p] # Rebind from `l`

Key Combinations
A key combination consists of zero or more modifiers, followed by a single key code. The modifiers and the code all each separated by a single space. Some examples:
wshift f2alt shift cctrl alt delete
Key Codes
All single-character keys (e.g. w, /, =, etc.) are not listed; the code is just the character.
