auto-pairs VS ultisnips

This plugin, jiangmiao/auto-pairs. Has a nice feature called Fly Mode where you can escape from any brace or quote with the ending pair no matter where you are while still being in INSERT mode. I'm trying to make this plugin work but having issues. Does anyone know how I can go about implementing this?

Having said this, there are some useful language independent extensions: jiangmiao/auto-pairs, tpope/vim-commentary, preservim/tagbar, junegunn/vim-peekaboo

You can load a plugin inside of your vimrc using the :runtime command. I'm assuming you're using https://github.com/jiangmiao/auto-pairs -- the initialization code for the plugin should be in plugin/auto-pairs.vim, so you can put this in your vimrc:

- packer instead of plug. it's written in lua and optimises - vim-autopairs instead of auto-pairs. it's written in lua + extremely important: it dosn't put pair of quotes if you're right before the word. it puts only one, so you don't have to manually delete second one -nvim-tree over nerdtree. it's written in lua, isn't this enough?)

I've recently switched from Pathogen to VimPlug and started installing new plugins. One of them was auto-pairs, which I promptly uninstalled. However, Vim looks for functions from this plugin when I try to type, preventing me from writing anything. For example, when I try pressing space, Vim complains about E117: Unknown function: AutoPairsSpace.

auto-pairs - completes your parentheses, brackets and quotes

Extra: for extra intellisense, you can use https://github.com/dense-analysis/ale (I don't - I like to stick to vanilla Vim as much as possible), https://github.com/ervandew/supertab (for completions using TAB instead of Ctrl-P), and https://github.com/jiangmiao/auto-pairs (automatic bracket insertion).

If you're in normal mode, as people have already said, it's A. If you are in insert mode, there are a lot of possibilities with roughly the same cost. Vim has a few insert-mode movement commands, e.g. j goes down a line, but so far as I know there isn't one that helps you. The vim-rsi plugin gives you readline-type commands in insert mode, so if you had that you could do to jump to the end of the line. Another possibility with plugins is to have something like auto-pairs installed in which case just typing ) would do it.

I always like people's LaTeX-based note taking setups. I'm a mathematician, so I write a lot of LaTeX too. (And I use vim, so I really like vim+Latex workflows).

It's interesting that this post (or rather, the later post that discusses this) talks about the advantages of UltiSnips. The well-known vim-LaTeX posts written by Gilles Castel (RIP) relied pivotally on UltiSnips.

It's not just that UltiSnips is a snippet engine. There are many of those (including LuaSnip, the other snippet engine mentioned in the OP series of articles). It's that UltiSnips can dispatch arbitrary expressions to short python code sections, and python has a great scientific library. For example, it's trivial to write a `sympy` snippet that will simplify or compute a given expression and write the output in latex for you.

But UltiSnips works *terribly* with neovim [1] [2]. Why? Because UltiSnips uses python, and neovim's python interface is 100x slower than vim's python interface. There are design decisions for this and I'm not trying to say that neovim is bad. I use both vim and neovim. But I use vim+UltiSnips+vimtex for writing LaTeX.

LuaSnip has interpolation too. I suppose it would be possible to write more code that calls from LuaSnip to a system like sympy (or other). But that's work. On the other hand, I think it takes a true power user to actually want or use the fancy interpolation functions.

I think in-the-wild examples like Ultisnips deoplete semshi (although they are advanced and somewhat complex) would also be good examples to learn how one can use python for writing plugins.

I didn't know lsp-zero, but this integration seems just for me except for that I am using UltiSnips instead of luasnip. Just curious how difficult do you think it is to add UltiSnips integration along with cmp-nvim-ultisnips?

If you use UltiSnips, you can just do this:

Snipets or code completion can be done in a number of different ways, and how that is configured will depend on what method you use. In the blog he uses the vim plugin ultisnips. You'll find details on configuration for that in that link.

Heyo, I've been trying to get UltiSnips and YouCompleteMe to work, however, I've ran into a bit of a problem. The python36.dll library does not seem to exist for UltiSnips, and YouCompleteMe cannot locate python at all (screenshots at bottom).
