What I want is to have the option to scroll faster.
Currently when in evil-mode normal state when I press j evil-next-visual-line is called. If I hold jthen the cursor moves down.
What I want is that when i press J it scrolls down 2 lines at a time (i.e. twice as fast.).
I know that evil-next-visula-line has an optional count parameter but I am a emacs/elisp noob and don't know how I would use that to do what I want.
(defun my/next-visual-line-twice ()
(interactive)
(evil-next-visual-line 2))
(define-key evil-normal-state-map
"J" 'my/next-visual-line-twice)
If you're also a vi newbie you may want to learn first about vi commands like 2j, }, and packages like https://github.com/abo-abo/avy. Also, note that J is already bound to a very useful command that joins the current line with the next one.
