nnoremap

[teyter]

I am trying to achieve the effect of this setting from vimrc in vscodevim

nnoremap : :

nnoremap ; :

This enables me to press the ; key to enter command mode in one key stroke as opposed to two i.e. just ; rather than Shift + ;

I tried doing this in settings.json with this:

"vim.normalModeKeyBindings": [
        {
            "before": [":"],
            "after": [":"]
        }
    ]

    "vim.normalModeKeyBindings": [
        {
            "before": [";"],
            "after": [":"]
        }
    ]

To no effect. Is there a way to achieve this?

I think this is what you're looking for:

    "vim.normalModeKeyBindings": [
        {
            "before": [";"],
            "after": [":"]
        }
    ]

That did it. Much obliged.
