Use Cmd as Ctrl key in vim

Question

How can I input commands such as <Ctrl-W> and <Ctrl-]> in vim using Cmd instead of Ctrl? The reason why I want to do it is because it's more comfortable. When I need to switch to a different split, for example, it's way more cumbersome to place my fingers on Ctrl than on Cmd. I'm sure many of you have also met with this problem, but I can't seem to find any resolutions online, other than "just use Ctrl".

Answer 1

There is an app called Keymando that I think can do this. Not sure if you can specify to do it only in Vim but you can specify to remap CTRL to CMD in Terminal.

When you've installed Keymando, put this in your config

only /Terminal/ do
    map "<Ctrl>", "<Cmd>"
end

Answer 2

The application "KeyReMap4MacBook" should do what you want.
