  • How do I implement this effect in Neovim?
    1 project | /r/neovim | 8 Aug 2023
    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?

    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:
  • Do vim users tend to enter insert mode and exit insert mode often in order to do simple movements using hjkl while writing? Or do you switch between arrow keys in insert mode and hjkl depending on what mode you're in?

    - 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?)

  • "Unknown functions" called after deleting a plugin
    1 project | /r/vim | 16 Aug 2022
    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.

    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).
  • What is the best way to tab out?
    3 projects | /r/vim | 2 May 2022
    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.
