vim-indent-object VS vim-easy-align

I tried https://github.com/michaeljsmith/vim-indent-object and while it was somewhat promising, it doesn't work correctly.

If your function is nicely indented (like your example), you can use an indent object daI delete it. Indent objects are provided by vim-indent-object (more well-known but inactive) and vindent.vim (an extended version by me).

vindent.vim is an alternative to both vim-indentwise and vim-indent-object. The latest version v3.0.0 reimplements every functionality that the two plugin offer, but improved!

I use indent objects from vim-indent-object and indent jumps vim-indentwise alot, but they seem to be dormant for a long time. Also, vim-indentwise provides a lot of unnecessary functionalities IMO, making modifying the source code a bit difficult.

This isn't exactly what you're looking for, but assuming you've indented everything between do and end, you can use the vim indent object plugin (https://github.com/michaeljsmith/vim-indent-object), then do something like yii, or dii to do it inside the indent.

I just saw a nice post in /u/medwatt about using vim for VHDL/Verilog and thought I'd contribute a little! * Syntax and error highlight: https://github.com/autozimu/LanguageClient-neovim * Column align: https://github.com/junegunn/vim-easy-align * Remove annoying whitespaces: https://github.com/ntpeters/vim-better-whitespace * Partial (fuzzy) filename search: https://github.com/junegunn/fzf.vim * Outline all declarations inside a file: ⠀https://github.com/preservim/tagbar * Treat indentations as vim-objects (useful for languages that don't use { }): https://github.com/michaeljsmith/vim-indent-object There is also mouse support in vim for those who want it. Try typing :set mouse=a. Very useful for resizing windows. I also highly recommend you get good at using folds (https://vim.fandom.com/wiki/Folding). It makes it a LOT easier to navigate files. You can save your fold config per-file with :mkview and load it later with :loadview. If I come up with more hints - I'll mention them in the comments!

Some of the forks https://github.com/michaeljsmith/vim-indent-object/network seem to be quite ahead, you can probably choose and pick a lot of improvements to your fork, then you take over the world!

As part of my journey to moving to Lua, I'm trying to move from vim-easy-align to mini.align.

Not exactly what you are asking for, but table formatting is usually enough with general purpose align plugins: - mini.align - junegunn/vim-easy-align - godlygeek/tabular

For aligning text table data I usually used this plugin

I am happy to announce the release of mini.align - module of mini.nvim for aligning text interactively (with or without live preview). This is mostly designed after junegunn/vim-easy-align, but is implemented in Lua and has slightly different alignment specification and user interaction lifecycle.

vim-easy-align - I haven't yet found a Lua-based equivalent with the same flexibility.

Also does this plugin support operator-pending mode like vim-easy-align does? For instance doing gaip, ("go align in paragraph; commas) in normal mode aligns all commas in the current paragraph.

Regarding your last question, there’s this: https://github.com/junegunn/vim-easy-align
