Weekly Vim tips and tricks thread! #24
For those who wish to preview substitutions as they type à la Neovim inccommand, there's markonm/traces.vim.
- Why keeps you using vim vs neovim?
- How would I wrap a word, prefix it, and finally suffix it?
-
multiple cursors
Neovim has this built in with set inccommand=split, which is inspired by traces.vim, I believe.

What is the window called that comes up when you press q:
There's also markonm/traces.vim: Range, pattern and substitute preview for Vim
-
Would you be interested in multicursor support for Neovim?
Do you know traces.vim?
-
How to not ask for regex solutions all the time?
There is also https://github.com/markonm/traces.vim that shows the changes made by :substitute interactively.
-
I still want multiple cursors and I’ve been using Vim/neovim for 8 years!
Perhaps you mean traces.vim? I find it extends live feedback on substitutions and whatnot quite well. Useful for a lot of typical cases where you would expect native Vim/Neovim to provide live feedback but doesn’t. Also, I find the “Feature comparison” table for traces to be modest: it is even better / native is lacking.

Newbie question about :s
May want to use 'incsearch' & 'hlsearch' to help show patterns as you build them with /. Neovim will show substitution previews ('inccommand') and traces.vim will work with Vim.
-
Is there a plugin that makes searching and replacing stuff in vim easier?
The traces.vim plugin can help show substitution previews. Neovim may want to look at :h 'inccommand'

Why do I get this invalid text height error message on startup?
There's an issue here about "Invalid Font Height" but It seems already fixed.
-
Does anyone have an example of a Neovide lua configuration?
Otherwise it's recommended to do it on UIEnter
-
Why keeps you using vim vs neovim?
:X, for one, which was rejected for idiotic reasons. I was also stupid errors from my vimrc, from bugs that were closed without fixing. Just no point trying to figure out how to get Neovim to behave like Vim when I already have Vim. *shrug*
-
linux c++ devs, what does your dev environment look like?
Neovim in tmux, or neovim-qt if I don't need to be able to attach to the session remotely. I occasionally bounce back to Emacs, but that's becoming less often now that the TreeSitter and LSP plugins for Neovim have gotten so good. All of that lives in an Xorg session managed by i3. Docs live in zeal.
- :menu doesnt work in neovim
-
AltGr + <key> wont print out ' [ '
So apparently this is an open issue on github, hopefully it gets solved. At least I know its not my computer doing weird things
-
What terminal emulator do you use?
I prefer using neovim in a ui most of the time. Neovim-Qt served me quite well. For ligatures you have to use the latest release but it is easy to compile and install.
