[Question] Insert mode mappings

Hello! Thank you for such an awesome plugin! Absolutely love it! ❤️

I’ve been trying to set up a few keymappings for insert mode. Most of them are not of a big importance, but this one is an absolute must for me and it doesn’t work:

imap jj <Esc> :call VSCodeNotify('vscode-neovim.escape')<CR>

It doesn’t even trigger the chord on the first j, like no reaction whatsoever.

Am I doing something wrong? Thanks!

Yes, something like jj or jk for the escape key won’t work. And i have no plans to listen to events in insert mode unless this or this will be fixed. Sorry for inconvience!

Alright, I figured it out. Adding the keymap to vscode’s keybindings.json with neovim.mode == insert works great!

    {
        "key": "j j",
        "command": "vscode-neovim.escape",
        "when": "editorTextFocus && neovim.mode == insert"
    }

It’s probably a good idea to add a note on how to add key mappings for insert mode (with the above example). I’ll send a PR tomorrow if you don’t mind.
