Issue

Hi Hyper Team,

Thank you for making such a wonderful product. I'm sorry if this is not the correct place to ask questions. I wasn't able to find a support forum or chat tool to use.

I am trying to figure out the steps/configurations, if any, to get the cursor to change from block to vertical line when switching between VI's insert and normal mode.

This issue (https://github.com/zeit/hyper/issues/270) suggests that this is fixed, but maybe it only applies to neovim? I also wasn’t sure where to configure things? .bashrc/.zshrc, .hyper.js, or .vimrc. There was a reference to init.vim, but I think that’s a neovim thing.

I just need some guidance on what and where I need to configure things to get the cursor to switch appropriately.

Sorry again if I'm asking in the wrong place.

Thank you and have a great day :)

In case it helps:
VIM (Vi Improved) 8.1.1500
Hyper 3.0.2 (stable)
Renderers: WebGL
Plugins:
hyper-command-gifs (0.0.6),
hypercwd (1.4.0),
hyperfullscreen (1.0.1),
hyperline (1.2.0),
hyper-pane (2.1.4),
hyperpower (1.1.1),
hyper-search (0.2.2),
hyper-solarized-dark (0.1.5),
hyperterm-crosshair (1.0.3)

Start by reading issue #270 and comparing the cursor behavior described there with the configuration files named in this issue: .hyper.js, .bashrc, .zshrc, .vimrc, and init.vim. Determine whether Hyper or Vim is expected to provide the mode-dependent cursor change, and document the supported configuration path or the missing product behavior.
