I am very fond of VIM and have been so accustomed to its style of typing and entering. Is it possible to make squeak workspace vim-like?

There is the SVI package by Steven Swerling. You can find in in the SqueakMap package loader. It is probably 10 years out of date by now, so I don't know if it still works. It would be worth trying this if you have an interest, and if it does not work out of the box I'm sure there will be help available here on the list.

Personally, I am a vi user but I do not bother with these things when working in Smalltalk. There's just not all that much typing involved :-)

Hi, there!
If you want to dive into it, see:
TextEditor class >> #initialize*Shortcuts TextEditor >> #dispatchOnKeyboardEvent:
If you would build your own subclass of TextEditor (or SmalltalkTextEditor), you could use it via "TextMorph defaultEditorClass: MyNewTextEditor" in all standard tools.
Best, Marcel
