[I_complete_me]

I use both vim and doom-emacs almost daily and jump between the two. I like using <spacebar> to call command mode in vim to do things like :tabe or :bd or :ls etc. (I have <leader> set to , ). I have this remap in my .vimrc > cmap w<space> :w<cr>. This allows <space>w<space> to write the buffer. The second space acts as <cr> meaning I don't need to press <enter>. Lovely.

Now, turning to doom-emacs, SPACE is the modal for getting the list of next available commands. To save a buffer in doom-emacs I use SPACE w SPACE. Et voila, the same muscle memory works for both. BTW I also set up :ww to write/quit so SPACE W W does this in both editors. Well, it works for me!

That sounds great! It actually only dawned on me that I could have a setup like you describe as I was writing my comment above. Thanks for sharing your details!

The only downside for me, and I've been reluctant about this for years, is I ssh into a lot of Linux machines that usually just have the standard stuff and default configs. This has kept me from experimenting with a lot things so as to keep my muscle memory also standard (thus avoiding i.e.: zsh, extensive .vimrc with plugins, etc).
