# Colemak plugin
This plugin remaps keys in `zsh`'s [`vi`-style navigation mode](http://zsh.sourceforge.net/Doc/Release/Zsh-Line-Editor.html#Keymaps)
for a [Colemak](https://colemak.com/) keyboard layout, to match the QWERTY position:

To use it, add it to the plugins array in your `~/.zshrc` file:
```
plugins=(... colemak)
```
You will also need to enable `vi` mode, so add another line to `~/.zshrc`:
```
bindkey -v
```
Restart your shell and hit the `<ESC>` key to activate `vicmd` (navigation) mode,
and start navigating `zsh` with your new keybindings!
