Feature Request: Add a cheatsheet to show all keybindings

[Akianonymus]

Maybe a doom help page which will show all the keybindings, including ctrl+* mappings.

Hey, I think we definitely should add it. In fact that's something that I was thinking about while developing the 3.0 release but I didn't started it because there were some big changes in the keybindings between the 2.3 and the 3.0 releases. A lot of new keybinds were added and some others were modified.

But now that the 3.0 was released I think that we should start doing it as soon as possible, because that is something essential for moving around. Maybe a wiki entry for the keybindings inside a Getting started section will be really good. Let me know if you have some ideas for this.

Regards :)

About some ideas, the cheatsheet i am talking about would show in neovim too.

Initially, this idea came from awesome wm

Here is a screenshot

Obviously, wiki entry is nice too, but would be super handy to have it just in terminal, no need for any hassle.

And bind it to a leader + some key and make it show in which key options too ( basically which key on steroids ).

A local cheatsheet will also show any changes if applied by users. About this, instead of using predefined stuff, there should be a lua script which will parse all the keybindings we wanna show.

About parsing mappings data, :map / :imap / :vmap without any arguments shows all the commands.

Anyway, i am pretty new to vim/nvim in general, so trying to make it friendly and exploring it's awesomeness, so don't mind if there is something dumb in above things suggested, xD.

Ah got it. It's "not possible" by default in Neovim, but I thought about spawning a floating window to display the keybinds with a keystroke. Gustavo (one of our maintainers :) ) told me that the orgmode.nvim plugin has something similar, I'll take a look at it later so we can recreate something like that.

In fact that's a really neat idea, I'm pretty sure that it's gonna be useful to have it inside Neovim. Thank you for the idea!

A floating window should be good enough.

I was initially thinking of a telescope style floating window, with a search bar, so we could easily search through it. Although i am not sure telescope has a grid like layout or even usable for this.

Anyway, glad i could help.

Hmm Pocco just told me about a plugin called cheatsheet.nvim that achieves exactly what you've said btw, and it's a better idea imo. Replicating it will be a neat journey (in the case that we can't use it directly, otherwise we will use it to avoid wasting time) :)

That seems to be static, it is trying to parse some predefined text file.( or i am missing something )

[NTBBloodbath]

I think you're right. To fit our needs we should make our own, but I'll like to take that cheatsheet.nvim as inspiration for the start point (I've never did telescope integrations before, I'll need to take a look at).

Maybe we should move this issue to a discussion btw? I think it will make more sense 🤔

Hey, it's been a long time.

I think that I got something with this new plugin, still some things to be polished but here we go. Hope I can push this to development branch today :)

[Akianonymus]

Looks nice

[NTBBloodbath]

Pog, it's already pushed to development branch :)
