.vimrc for Vim Mode

For the time being you can use: https://bryce.co/xcode-vim-map/

But @apple please do it officially. Bring .vimrc.

Xcode doesn't support .vimrc, this is so frustrated.

try out Karabiner, you can download it from github.

add below to the json file under ~/.config/karabiner, then you can use jk to jump out of INSERT mode, or change it to your favorite combination.

    "rules": [
