Can I set <Esc> to close yazi explorer?

Looks like the default is q to close yazi explorere, can I set it to <Esc>?

Yeah, you can create the keybind in yazi's keybindings to do this.

Try this https://github.com/mikavilpas/dotfiles/blob/3af1c543e11c5f67c51fa357a2efcc89c9bc550b/.config/yazi/keymap.toml?plain=1#L40

Sounds good, Thanks!
is there also a way I can set it in lua file for yazi.nvim?

[mikavilpas]

This is not possible right now, unfortunately.

[winkee01]

I think it's not an ideal solution to be only able to set it outside of lua config at this moment, but anyway, it works when I set it in keymap.toml. Much appreciated!

Nice. To explain the complications in creating key bindings, there is no good way to have a custom yazi configuration for yazi.nvim only yet.

The config cannot be modified after yazi has been started, and there is no good way to customize these keys before yazi starts either. I think I brought this up as a feature request, but I don't remember exactly where though. I looked at sxyazi/yazi#989 which was a big list of requests (most were implemented nicely).
