#+BEGIN_QUOTE
Emacs-libvterm (vterm) is fully-fledged terminal emulator inside GNU Emacs based on libvterm, a C library. As a result of using compiled code (instead of elisp), emacs-libvterm is fully capable, fast, and it can seamlessly handle large outputs.
#+END_QUOTE

Vterm is "[[id:9e101583-0fa5-4df8-beed-7741803bfe5a][evil]]ified" by [[id:c27c05e6-8211-45df-a94d-a711846b8f3c][Evil Collection]].

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (use-package vterm
    :straight t
    :init
#+END_SRC

We first have to define a new minor mode, ~magic_rb-koy-vterm-mode~, then hook it onto the existing ~vterm-mode~

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (define-minor-mode magic_rb-koy-vterm-mode
    "Enable koy compatibility for vterm."
    :lighter " koy"
    :keymap (make-sparse-keymap)
    (evil-normalize-keymaps))
  (add-hook 'vterm-mode-hook 'magic_rb-koy-vterm-mode)
#+END_SRC

Then we actually populate the keymap using [[id:1c6981a5-4371-4657-b4ea-435497a80010][general.el]].
