What Hacker News says

Author here: This works using Vim's NetBeans control protocol (inside Vim, do `:help netbeans` to get an overview. Also see the VimSocket class in vim.py) and minimal help from a simple VT100 emulator I wrote (found in term.py). Open the command panel (cmd|ctrl+shift+p) and run the "ActualVim: Monitor TTY" command if you want to see what's going on in the terminal for any open view. I actually wrote the first Vim emulation mode in Sublime Text a couple years back ( https://github.com/lunixbochs/sublimevim ) that possibly inspired the other similar plugins. I consistently ran into enough unsupported motions with both my own and other plugins that I caved and wrote ActualVim.
In Actualvim – Sublime Text 3 input mode powered by Vim itself
