Description

Didn't spacebar used to work as a way to cancel the 'f' functionality. It stopped working for me one day recently. Or did I imagine this functionality?

I have it set like that in https://atom.io/packages/jumpy so I might just be getting confused, but I'm 90% sure I had muscle memory for vimium with that...
