Vimac
Vimium for macOS.
Download
You can download all versions of Vimac here.
Installing
- You will need to give Vimac Accessibility permissions in Security & Privacy.
-
warning: When you update Vimac, even though the app is in the permissions list, you have to untick and tick it (or remove and add back) for permissions to be granted.
How to use Vimac
Hint Mode (CTRL+SPACE) \ Once Hint Mode is activated you can typed the hint letters to perform a click.
Right-Click \ Hold SHIFT while typing the hint text.
Double-Click \ Hold CMD while typing the hint text. \ You can cycle between all hints and hints only for actionable elements with TAB.
Scrolling (CTRL+S) \ Scroll mode allows you to scroll with HJKL + DU keys. \ D and U scroll the page down and up respectively by half the height of the scroll area. \ You can cycle through the scroll areas with the TAB key.
Tips
- When the yellow hints are shown on-screen, you can use the Spacebar to rotate the height of the overlapping hints.
- After executing a right-click command, use CTRL-N and CTRL-P to select the next and previous menu bar item respectively.
Building
Add Vimac to the list of Accessibility apps under System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Accessibility.
Keep System Preferences open under this section during
development with the settings unlocked. This is because the
grant-accessibility-permission-dev.scpt AppleScript is
scheduled to run after each build to re-grant Accessibility
permissions.
The AppleScript simply checks and unchecks Vimac to re-grant permissions which are lost after a cleanbuild.
