This is an update on my current configurations in Rkward.
Use VI-mode in editor to execute code blocks, then add two key bindings:
Normal mode: <s-c-c>: V { <c-cr> <esc> }
Insert mode: <s-c-c>: <esc> } V { <c-cr> <esc> } i
I also enjoy replacing Control-Enter with q in visual mode (i.e. when a variable is marked in the editor), set q to <c-cr> in visual mode.
Using Control-Shift-C we can now execute an entire code block instead of a single line. Also, we can use vim editing commands. For me, this seems to work better than combining Kate with VI commands for R.
Morever, ensure that a key binding for dynamic line break is set (I use Control-Alt-Z). Otherwise, it is also possible to use VI mode for hard line breaks.
