I was just thinking of a simple way using python .... would
it be possible to create a small (bigger) script/macro,
which runs as soon as I open a file.
Like in vim I am in navigation mode and a small popup window
in some corner tells me that. Due the active popup window I
am not able to write to the text file, but can use the keys
for navigation...

and those navigation keys should be some shortcuts for the
wanted movement; i.e. 'j' corresponds to <left> ...
Sounds not to bad, doesn't?
... but I have no clue about how I could do it using python
in openoffice :-(
Maybe somebody has a small advice?
Greetings!
