;;; Commentary:
;; Evil bindings for Helm.
;;; Code:
(require 'evil)
(require 'helm-files) ; TODO: Check if this is the ideal requirement and if we are not loading too much.
;; To navigate Helm entries with <hjkl> in insert state, we need a modifier.
;; Using the C- modifier would conflict with the help prefix "C-h". So we use
;; M- prefixed bindings instead.
;; Helm-find-files: We cannot use "h" and "l" in normal state to navigate up and
;; down the file system hierarchy since we need them to use it to edit the
;; minibuffer content.
(defun evil-helm-setup ()
;; TODO: We should not modify helm-map in Emacs state but somehow it does not
;; work otherwise.
(define-key helm-map (kbd "M-h") 'helm-next-source)
(define-key helm-map (kbd "M-l") 'helm-execute-persistent-action)
(dolist (map (list helm-find-files-map helm-read-file-map))
(define-key map (kbd "M-h") 'helm-find-files-up-one-level)
(define-key map (kbd "M-l") 'helm-execute-persistent-action) ; TODO: Inheritance does not seem to work for that binding.
(define-key map (kbd "C-l") nil)) ; So the header displays the above binding.
