Is there a way to add a keybind for up and down actions?

[guillaumeLamanda]

Hello here 👋

I am configuring the plugin, but in the integrated doc I can't find any possibility to remap a key for the action up and down.
I use a BEPO keyboard layout, so for me r si up and n is down. Do I miss something?

Thanks for reading

Unfortunately there is no action for up/down - it simply uses the regular vim navigation mappings.

Does r/n work for up/down in regular buffers? How have you mapped them?

Context: I'm using a dvorak layout, however I'm using the "regular" h/j/k/l without any dvorak specific configuration.

I have remapped r to j and n to k in a config file.

I tried to use the remove_keymaps option to true, and verified nothing in the nvim tree mappings overlaps n and r, but it does not seem to work.

That's tricky. h/j/k/l are not really mapped anywhere as they are vim builtins. We can only really remap to them then remap them elsewhere with all the "noremap" business.

How did you remap? Do those remappings work in other plugins like fugitive, bufexplorer or tagbar?
