Use `matchadd` instead of `match` as it has no limit on the number of
highlights.
Also call the function every time the cursor moved instead of only when
holding. This makes it snappier while also keeping the highlight when
moving inside the cword.
- CheckBackspace needs to be used instead of <SID>CheckBackspace
- Comment out clashing/obtrusive leader/space mappings
- Change classobj mappings to use `o` as they were clashing with the
comment textobj.
- Simulate the default statusline with the help of 'statusline'.
Otherwise it would be empty/just containing coc elements.
Additionally to start the search with ripgrep, start a vim search as
well. That way navigation between search results in the opened file is
easier.
The register is modified directly and hlsearch is turned on manually
instead of using the builtin `*`, so that the cursor does not move to
the next result in the current file.
Set `nomodified` after reading from standard input. This way the buffer
can be closed without error message.
This will **not** disable modified warnings completely. If the input is
modified after read, vim will reset `modified` (As it should).
Swap the behaviour of `[[` `[]`. This way the first bracket indicates
the direction of the motion and the second the target (i.e. open or
closed brace).
I assume that the reason behind these mappings is to be able to easily
change the direction of the move by 'inverting' the keys (e.g. `]]` ->
`[[`). I understand that, but find the new way more intuitive.
Check that the current word under the cursor exists (not empty) before
adding it as match.
Fix the disappearing of the welcome screen after a short time when
opening vim without file as argument.
I sometimes have the situation that I want to create empty lines but
they contain either whitespace from keeping the indentation and/or the
comment string (`o` on a comment line). My current workflow is to either
delete it and recreate it properly (e.g. from the 'other side' i.e. a
non-comment line) or clear it with `cc`. Both ways are a bit awkward.
Add a mapping that clears a line but stays in normal mode.
Also remove the `<leader>d` mapping that deletes and puts the content
into the system clipboard as I rarely use this one.
Step by step I want to restructure the vim files. The approach to
cleanly divide the config by topics works in zsh pretty well, but is too
vague in vim for my liking.
Especially (the very small) functions and autocommands that have the
purpose of setting options or mapping keys or the interplay of multiple
categories together, make it difficult to decide in which file the
snippets should lay.
As I started to type on the international US layout I don't need any
extra bindings for special characters in vim.
Move the update of `spellfile` into xdg.vim, as it was the only
remaining body of `NewSpellLang()` and fits thematically.
Fix a small but stupid bug that the result of `timer_start` (i.e. the
timer ID) was evaluated as Ex command. This would lead to a jump to the
top of the file, every time the vimrc was reloaded (i.e. when a .vim is
saved).
Use `call` instead of `execute`, to fix this.
Apply the following:
1. Switch to `matchadd` as `match` can only be used for **one**
highlight
2. Use an autocommand group for better behaviour when reloading the
vimrc.
3. Use just one pattern as it seems to work always. (Apparently `\%#` is
not matched in normal mode)
Neovim does not make `has('clipboard')` obsolete. It only simplifies
clipboard support but `has('clipboard')` will still return `0` if no
supported clipboard program is installed.
See `:help clipboard`
Nvim has no direct connection to the system clipboard. Instead it
depends on a |provider| which transparently uses shell commands to
communicate with the system clipboard or any other clipboard
"backend".
and `:help clipboard-tool`
The presence of a working clipboard tool implicitly enables the '+'
and '*' registers. Nvim looks for these clipboard tools, in order of
priority:
- |g:clipboard|
- pbcopy, pbpaste (macOS)
- wl-copy, wl-paste (if $WAYLAND_DISPLAY is set)
- xclip (if $DISPLAY is set)
- xsel (if $DISPLAY is set)
- lemonade (for SSH) https://github.com/pocke/lemonade
- doitclient (for SSH)
http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/doit/
- win32yank (Windows)
- termux (via termux-clipboard-set, termux-clipboard-set)
- tmux (if $TMUX is set)
