# Modifications to Lokaltog's EasyMotion
|
|
1. Use one - two character key jump. Display two keys if one-character key is not enough, so you can see what two keys to type without waiting after pressing the first key.
|
|
2. Added forward-backward search (bidirectional) search. You can jump forward or backward at the same time. `<Leader>s`. One useful trick is to map `nmap <SPACE> <leader>s` and `vmap <SPACE> <leader>s` to use space bar instead and save one keystroke!
|
|
3. Added SelectLines function which allows you to select any range of lines using two consecutive easymotion calls. Default mappings are `c<Leader>l, d<Leader>l, v<Leader>l, y<Leader>l`. To yank a single line you can either type the same character(s) twice, or use '.' character. E.g. `vlb.` will select the line with character 'b'. Note: to promote good Vim habits, you should learn standard movement commands like `}}, vi(, va(, %, ][, ]], [(, etc.` before resorting to this function.
|
|
4. (Experimental) Added SelectPhrase function which allows you to make selection between any two characters. Default mapping are `c<Leader>p, d<Leader>p, v<Leader>p, y<Leader>p`. Example usage: type `v<Leader>p` then press two input characters. Now the two input characters will be highlight on the same screen, and you can then type two combos to make selection.
|
|
5. Added matching target keys by smartcase option.
|
|
6. Added keep cursor column option when JK motion.

## Animated demonstration

Two-key combo
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Select lines using `v<Leader>l`
|
|
|
|
let g:EasyMotion_special_select_line = 1 " Default:0
|
|
let g:EasyMotion_special_mapping_l = '{anykeys}' " Customize keymap
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Yank lines using `y<Leader>l`. You can copy lines without moving cursor back and forth between line you want to yank and line you want to paste.
|
|
|
|
let g:EasyMotion_special_select_phrase = 1 " Default:0
|
|
let g:EasyMotion_special_mapping_p = '{anykeys}' " Customize keymap
|
|

|
|

|
This is an alpha version, which breaks multi-byte support, and others.

# Introduction
|
|
|
|
EasyMotion provides a much simpler way to use some motions in vim. It
|
|
takes the `<number>` out of `<number>w` or `<number>f{char}` by
|
|
highlighting all possible choices and allowing you to press one key to
|
|
jump directly to the target.
|
|
|
|
When one of the available motions is triggered, all visible text
|
|
preceding or following the cursor is faded, and motion targets are
|
|
highlighted.
|
|
|
|
EasyMotion is triggered by one of the provided mappings.
|
|
|
|
# Important notes about the default bindings
|
|
|
|
**The default leader has been changed to `<Leader><Leader>` to avoid
|
|
conflicts with other plugins you may have installed.** This can easily be
|
|
changed back to pre-1.3 behavior by rebinding the leader in your vimrc:
|
|
|
|
let g:EasyMotion_leader_key = '<Leader>'
|
|
|
|
All motions are now triggered with `<Leader><Leader>` by default, e.g.
|
|
`<Leader><Leader>t`, `<Leader><Leader>gE`.
|
|
|
|
## Usage example
|
|
|
|
Type `<Leader><Leader>w` to trigger the word motion `w`. When the motion is
|
|
triggered, the text is updated (no braces are actually added, the text
|
|
is highlighted in red by default):
|
|
|
|
<cursor>Lorem {a}psum {b}olor {c}it {d}met.
|
|
|
|
Press `c` to jump to the beginning of the word "sit":
|
|
|
|
Lorem ipsum dolor <cursor>sit amet.
|
|
|
|
Similarly, if you're looking for an "o", you can use the `f` motion.
|
|
Type `<Leader><Leader>fo`, and all "o" characters are highlighted:
|
|
|
|
<cursor>L{a}rem ipsum d{b}l{c}r sit amet.
|
|
|
|
Press `b` to jump to the second "o":
|
|
|
|
Lorem ipsum d<cursor>olor sit amet.
|
|
|

Jeffrey Way of Nettuts+ has also [written
|
|
a tutorial](http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/other/vim-essential-plugin-easymotion/)

about EasyMotion.

## Animated demonstration
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
## Vim-Lazymotion!
|
|
|
|
Matching target keys by smartcase. You can type targets more lazily.
|
|
|
|
Type `<Leader><Leader>sv`, and all "v" and "V" characters are highlighted:
|
|
|
|
<cursor>V{a}im v{b}im V{c}IM.
|
|
|
|
Press `b` to jump to the second "v":
|
|
|
|
Vim <cursor>vim VIM.
|
|
|
|
Type `<Leader><Leader>sV`, and all "V" characters are highlighted, not "v":
|
|
|
|
<cursor>V{a}im vim V{b}IM.
|
|
|
|
Press `b` to jump to the second "V":
|
|
|
|
Vim vim <cursor>VIM.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Add following description in your vimrc:
|
|
|
|
let g:EasyMotion_smartcase = 1
|
|
|
|
Default:0
