vim-repeat VS vim-startify

which requires vim-repeat to be installed but otherwise silently does nothing extra.

Do you have vim-repeat? I think sneak should work with that.

e.g. in vim-surround you could just do something like ysiw_ to make a word italics or ysiw*w. (assuming you also have vim-repeat).

vim.keymap.set("n", "dj",require"dap".step_over). However, I have not had any luck with registering this with vim-repeat. I have tried following the solution here, but nothing seems to happen. Also, the README in the vim-repeat repo only gives an example of use with a mapping, which is not my case. I don't think this is specific to nvim-dap in particular, so has anyone been able to add dot repeat functionality to any lua function?

Github: tpope/vim-repeat

Hi all, I just wanted to share a short gist I wrote for plugin authors on how they can incorporate dot-repeat functionality directly into their plugins, without external dependencies like vim-repeat. In general, I'm open to any suggestions about writing style or content; I just wanted to share some things that I wish I knew when I started writing nvim-surround. Cheers!

vim-repeat: More power to the dot.

I'm currently using alpha.nvim (https://github.com/goolord/alpha-nvim). It tries to be more generic than the others, to the point it can recreate most of the other popular ones. It even has template for for example the dashboard layout. startup-nvim (https://github.com/startup-nvim/startup.nvim) seems to do a similar thing, although I dont' have experience with that one. The only other one I've tried before is the classic vim-startify (https://github.com/mhinz/vim-startify), which is a little older I think and locks you into its layout.

Tbh, startify made me more curious about all the vim possibilities. https://github.com/mhinz/vim-startify

Just for posterity since every other session plugin has been posted, vim-startify has autosave and autoload support

I am working on a, from scratch, rebuild of the ever classic vim-startify for neovim with a focus on extreme extensibility. I also want it to be as much of a drop in replacement as possible, and don't want to write myself into a corner with some design choices I'm taking

https://github.com/mhinz/vim-startify has also means to store sessions with command 'SSave'.

might be well known but i like https://github.com/mhinz/vim-startify easy to use start screen with most recently used lists of files, etc.

Startify

mhinz/vim-startify - Start page

I was trying to center the startup screen for vim-startify and went down the rabbit hole of looking for a different startup plugin. My main use is that I want to start my already existing startify sessions as everything else I do with Telescope. I found mini.starter and it is working exactly as I want it to so I thought I would share for others that look for something similar. Don't get put off by the many components of the plugin. They are not loaded if you don't need them. Here is my a screenshot and my config for a minimal, centered, startup:

I am using :e# and ctrl-^ a lot to switch between most recent files (alternate-file), but if I open a file with startify , those commands will error with E23: No alternate file.
