Add Emacs mode

[risingphoenix73]

Hi,

In the Tools/preferences at the botttom is the option to enable Vim-mode.
Would it be possible to create the option of enabling shortcuts similar like Emacs/Org mode.

To be clear, I don't mean org functionality or features.

Emacs has a number of shortcuts to navigate and edit text that are really usefull.
examples: cntrl+a begin of line, cntrl+e go to end of line,
Moving to the beginning or end of a word/ sentence/ paragragh.
Cntl-o to switch window/frame, could be used to switch between the editor window and the project tree.

thank you

Emacs mode is much more problematic than Vim mode. Emacs remaps existing keyboard shortcuts, while Vim mode does not interfere with that. All of the shortcuts you mentioned already do other things in novelWriter.

By the way, there are already shortcuts for the features you mention, and a bunch of others. What Emacs does is just use different shortcuts for the same features, so this is essentially a duplicate of #740, with maybe a preset for changing to default Emacs shortcuts.

If #740 gets added, this one can be included there, but I don't want to maintain two conflicting global sets of keybindings in the core of the app.
