Insert key on MacBooks

#1

I cannot find a way to set the cursor to “insert” mode on a MacBook air. The “insert” key does not exist and there does not seem to be any key combination that emulates the “insert” key on a Mac.

Would it be possible to add some key binding to emulate the “insert” key on the MacOS versions of Sublime text?

Thank you

There’s a default key binding for this on MacOS that you can use if the key is not present on your keyboard:

	{ "keys": ["super+alt+o"], "command": "toggle_overwrite" },

Thank you so much. It works like a charm!
