I can recommend using Fennel with Tangerine (integration) and Hibiscus (macros). My config here for inspiration.

For ease of use, you can use conjure for evaluating the code, cmp-conjure for nvim completions, hibiscus.nvim and nyoom.nvim macros for macros, and you can also use nyoom.nvim as a base config.

Hibiscus.nvim:

local function bootstrap (name, url, path) if vim.fn.isdirectory(path) == 0 then print(name .. ": installing in data dir...") vim.fn.system {"git", "clone", "--depth", "1", url, path} vim.cmd [[redraw]] print(name .. ": finished installing") end end bootstrap ( "tangerine.nvim", "https://github.com/udayvir-singh/tangerine.nvim", vim.fn.stdpath "data" .. "/site/pack/packer/start/tangerine.nvim" ) bootstrap ( "hibiscus.nvim", "https://github.com/udayvir-singh/hibiscus.nvim", vim.fn.stdpath "data" .. "/site/pack/packer/start/hibiscus.nvim" ) require'tangerine'.setup{ compiler = { verbose = false, hooks = { "onsave", "oninit" } } }

Fennel with hibiscus:

But, you can use another plugin of mine Hibiscus which contains bulk of zest and aniseed macros.

I don't think it moves blocks, but I utilize the venerable vim-unimpaired for basic text movement (and for inserting empty lines from normal mode).

vim-unimpaired gives a mapping for that for ] (and [ to insert an empty lines above the cursor).

I use https://github.com/tpope/vim-unimpaired for this.

Is it possible to install a Vim plugin (like https://github.com/tpope/vim-unimpaired/tree/master)?

HJKL for movement, then mapped arrow keys to this (requires unimpaired): " Normal mode: indent or move line nmap [e nmap ]e nmap << nmap >> " Visual mode: indent or move selection vmap [egv vmap ]egv vmap >gv

Just now I was looking at the manual entry for vim-unimpaired, since I couldn't remember the incantation for swapping two lines. (It's ]e and [e for swap forward and swap backward.)

Switch buffers with :b or the ]b [b bindings from unimpaired.

and a nice toggle remap that I found here to edit Markdown without conceal: vim.keymap.set("n", "tc", ":setlocal =&conceallevel ? 'conceallevel=0' : 'conceallevel=2'", { desc = "[T]oggle [C]onceallevel"} )

imo there are even few plugin authors who actually understand this well, and certainly no distro author does. Some of the few examples of good "vim philosophy" plugins are vim-sneak and vim-unimpaired.

https://github.com/tpope/vim-unimpaired. I still use it a lot and it’s one of the few remaining vimscript plug-ins I have. It is also quite slow to load. It would be fantastic to have a Lua equivalent.
