substitute.nvim VS mini.nvim

https://github.com/gbprod/substitute.nvim https://github.com/smjonas/duplicate.nvim

Try this https://github.com/gbprod/substitute.nvim

That one - https://github.com/gbprod/substitute.nvim . It is two plugins in one technically, substitute and exchange.

I use substitute.nvim for this purpose, which adds the "substitute" verb that you can apply to a text object to paste over it (without modifying your register).

I know you can accomplish this with vanilla vim motions, but I use a plugin for substituting textobjects with what's in my registers called substitute.nvim. vim-subversive and vim-exchange are other alternatives.

I would recommend substitute.nvim. It lets you input text over a text-object, and doesn't affect your " register

vim-subversive/substitute.nvim

Very cool! I think there is also https://github.com/gbprod/substitute.nvim

For neovim users -> gbprod/substitute.nvim sxiw jump to another word and press dot

This is essentially a tagline of mini.move.

Just as the others suggested, oil.nvim solves this outta the box. I freaking love it (here my config in case ya need it). Apparently also mini.files handles this by default

You mean backwards seeking text objects? You can get those with mini.ai https://github.com/echasnovski/mini.nvim/blob/main/readmes/mini-ai.md

I would like to offer you to join me in saying late greetings to this autumn with a release of mini.nvim version 0.10.0. It is mostly about introducing three (quite feature full, dare I say) modules and minor updates of existing ones.

Last night I cleaned up all the dead code in my config and realised that mini.nvim has to be the single best plugin that I've used. I have a couple of other favourites but this collection has been so consistently good that I wanted to give some thanks to the juggernaut that is u/echasnovski! Thanks for all the work you plugin authors and core maintainers put in to make this editor what it is <3

For example: I spent a lot of time configuring file tree plugins to have the same sorting as VS Code, tweaking their icons, etc. But then I realized I barely used the file explorer at all, and now I'm super happy with the minimal approach of mini.files. I had similar experiences with other plugins that were just adding "fluff" instead of the functionality I was looking for.

Around two weeks ago I've announced the release of mini.files - a file explorer module of mini.nvim with column view navigation and "edit text to manipulate file system" design. This resulted into a great feedback from the community, much of which turned into new features.
