GithubVim IM Control for Obsidian
Control Input Method (IM) when InsertLeave and InsertEnter in Vim mode. Supports macOS, Windows, and Linux.
Usage
You can set the following four settings for each platform. If you want to use the InsertEnter command, you should also set the Get Current IM command to restore the state of IM. If you leave blank either of them, InsertEnter will be skipped.
The default settings are defined as below. For the defaults, im-select is used for macOS and Windows, and fcitx5-remote for Linux. But you can use any IM controller as you want.
