vim-highlighter VS flash.nvim

https://github.com/azabiong/vim-highlighter - highlight occurrences of words, can select multiple different words at same time. Independent from lsp word highlight, or search highlight - so these highlights wont interfere with vim-highlihger . Makes it easy to spot all places where some function or variable was used. One click to un-highlight all, or specyfic word. And it takes just hotkeys: - f + Enter - add cursor word occurrences highlight

If you just need to highlight a word under cursor with some color, then try https://github.com/azabiong/vim-highlighter. I often need to match identifiers in code that I browse to quickly identify what is used where. It's a very helpful plugin for this use case.

vim-highlighter

I would like to recommend trying this plugin vim-highlighter :)

And I also found this plugin https://github.com/azabiong/vim-highlighter

I came across this term in https://github.com/folke/flash.nvim but couldn't figure out how to use this Search method.

flash.nvim supports jumping to treesitter nodes by labels(just like leap does for searching text). You might want to give that a try and see if it fits your needs.

The new plugin from Folke https://github.com/folke/flash.nvim has enhanced f, t, F, T motions and tons leap motions features!

There actually is one plugin, namely flash.nvim, which does something roughly in that direction for search; as soon as you type a unique string it jumps you to the respective location. https://github.com/folke/flash.nvim

return { -- https://github.com/folke/flash.nvim { "folke/flash.nvim", event = "VeryLazy", opts = { labels = "asdfghjklqwertyuiopzxcvbnm", }, config = function(_, opts) local flash = require("flash") flash.setup(opts) _G.flashnav = { jump = function () flash.jump({ search = { mode = "search"}, }) end, jumptoline = function () flash.jump({ search = { mode = "search", max_length = 0 }, label = { after = { 0, 0 } }, pattern = "^" }) end

-- Plugins require("lazy").setup({ -- Motions [https://github.com/folke/flash.nvim] "folke/flash.nvim", event = "VeryLazy", ---@type Flash.Config opts = {}, keys = { { "s", mode = { "n", "x", "o" }, function() require("flash").jump() end, desc = "Flash", }, { "S", mode = { "n", "o", "x" }, function() require("flash").treesitter() end, desc = "Flash Treesitter", }, { "r", mode = "o", function() require("flash").remote() end, desc = "Remote Flash", }, { "R", mode = { "o", "x" }, function() require("flash").treesitter_search() end, desc = "Flash Treesitter Search", }, { "", mode = { "c" }, function() require("flash").toggle() end, desc = "Toggle Flash Search", }, }, })

I just released a new plugin!
