Description

I’m using ish on my iPad Pro 2018 with iOS 15. Connecting with Bluetooth Mac keyboard.

When I’m in vim, I can’t just hold the “hjkl” key to keep moving the cursor. Is there any solution or setting for supporting this?

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are mentioned. Start by reproducing the Bluetooth keyboard behavior in iSH and Vim on iOS, then trace the keyboard input path; done means key-holding repeatedly moves the cursor or the supported setting and limitation are clearly documented.
