I have a pretty huge .vimrc by now which use to edit tex documents.

I also ask questions on MathStackExchange frequently and there I do not have any of the keybindings which I have when I am working using vim. So my typing becomes really slow, especially because I unwittingly use the the same key strokes on MSE text area which I use in vim, giving weird output. Then I end up cleaning up the mess.

Is there a way to use the same keybindings on MSE which I have in my .vimrc?

I am using chromium web browser in Ubuntu 14.04.

    One (less than ideal) option is to type it in vim, then copy it over.

There are plugins available to edit text areas with an external editor. After a brief google search I found the following:

Hope this helps.
