  • Setting a b: or g: variable in a modeline

    and it seems it depends now on lh-vim-lib (to be able to set dictionaries: :let b:dict.key.subkey.whatever = 42: https://github.com/LucHermitte/lh-vim-lib (install it with your plugin manager)
  • How can I have a local .vimrc file that is used only inside a certain directory?
    2 projects | /r/vim | 19 May 2021
    Note that if it's just for setting a few standard options, editorconfig will be enough for most of us. It won't work if you want to define different mappings, or if you want to change the path to your snippets (actually editorconfig plugin could be hijacked to set vim variables)
  • Does a "leader mode" plugin exist?
    5 projects | /r/vim | 12 May 2021
    here an UI alternative to confirm() and another that implement comboboxes: https://github.com/LucHermitte/lh-vim-lib/blob/master/autoload/lh/ui.vim (the code is very old, but it works search for getchar())
  • What is the best config/setup/plugins for C development in Vim?
    14 projects | /r/vim | 28 Apr 2021
    Regarding project management, .exrc is enough as long we're working on simple project where everything is in the same directory. On real project I've ended up needing and writing much, much more.
  • manual ctags with vim-gutentags or similar
    3 projects | /r/vim | 10 Mar 2021
    or in your .editorconfig file (if you have any) as lh-vim-lib also registers an extension to set vim variables from editorconfig file -- it's definitively not meant to be used this way, but well it's possible.
  • tasks.vim - async jobs and tasks
    2 projects | /r/vimplugins | 6 Feb 2021
    I have things on the same topic in my vimscript library: I provide a queue object into which I register related tasks that cannot be safely parallelized.
