- How can I move the cursor by each display line with word wrapping?

If you have word wrap on and would like the cursor to enter each wrapped line when using <kbd>j</kbd>, <kbd>k</kbd>, <kbd>↓</kbd> or <kbd>↑</kbd>, set the following in VS Code's keybindings.json settings file ([other options exist](https://github.com/VSCodeVim/Vim/issues/2924#issuecomment-476121848) but they are slow):

<!-- prettier-ignore -->
```json

"command": "cursorUp",
"when": "editorTextFocus && vim.active && !inDebugRepl && !suggestWidgetMultipleSuggestions && !suggestWidgetVisible"
