For the people who are still looking for the answer, you can enable vi mode using following menu option

Edit → Preferences → Text Editor → Behavior → Navigation (use vi modes)

Older versions may have used

Tools → Options → Text Editor → Behavior → Navigation (use vi modes)

The same for Xamarin Studio. – csg Oct 26 '14 at 18:16

Fair warning: Support is bleak. Hardcore vim-ers should probably stick to vim. – Qix - MONICA WAS MISTREATED Nov 17 '15 at 02:03

Yeah, both '3dd' and 'dd.' deleted only a single line, when I tried it on MonoDevelop 5.9.6 (Ubuntu). I think I'll look for a Unity3D plugin for vim, instead. – Soron Jan 21 '16 at 00:27
Is anyone aware of a way to modify the key bindings for vi mode? I use dvorak, so I like to remap the basic navigation keys... – notlesh Jul 03 '16 at 15:09
