If you enable the setting Use "CamelHumps" words in IntelliJ, commands like ctrl+left will go to the previous hump in camel case words, rather than the start of the word.
For similar functionality in VS Code, enalbe the config config.intellij-idea-keybindings.useCamelHumpsWords under Settings.

Intellij's custom keymap is not a full copy of its parent keymap. It inherits unmodified shortcuts from the parent keymap and defines only those that were changed. If you use a plugin like Emacs or Vim, only your changes will be exported in the XML
Warning output for keymaps that could not be imported is not yet implemented
Cannot load settings.zip file directly
Clone a copy of the repo:
