How to use Chrome tab shortcuts in Vim

I'm used to using cmd-option + arrows to switch between tabs in Chrome. I'd like to do the same in Vim without having to learn vimscript right way. Any suggestions?

You can use some alternative mappings. The terminal may not play nice with some of these because <Tab> is a control key already.

Something like:

nnoremap <C-t> :tabe<CR>                                                        
nnoremap <C-tab> :tabn<CR>                                                
nnoremap <C-S-tab> :tabp<CR>

This will not necessarily work depending on your terminal and terminal settings, so you would just have to learn to use other navigation keys.

Something like

:nnoremap <D-A-Down> <C-PageDown>
:nnoremap <D-A-Up> <C-PageUp>

should do it. The <D-> modifier is Mac-specific. For other options, see

:help keycodes
