vim-surround VS ctrlp.vim

I don't know what exactly you mean by pasting around the second selection, but you can paste selections, registers or even files at specific lines with some vim-fu. If it's generic enough you could write a function or even keyboard shortcut if it's very simple.

I have set ",',(,[,{ in visual mode to cut the selection insert the pairs then paste it back as a very hacky solution, but it gets the job done. If you want something more advanced to add or change anything around the selection tpope has solved that with vim-surround[1].

ysw https://github.com/tpope/vim-surround basically i surround the word with " So basically i wanted to surround the first word in line qoutes and then replace the first occurence of = with : Example:

vim-surround is likely the plugin answer.

If you have Tim Pope's vim-surround plugin, you can also add this to your Vimrc:

If you don't want to leverage Vim's package feature or you want to put your plugins in some other place, add the folder of the plugin to your :h 'runtimepath'. For example, if you download Tim Pope's vim-surround at ~\Documents\vim-surround, you should add this to your Vim configuration:

I'm using the vim-surround plugin by tPope and I know I can do ysw to surround words with whatever tag i want, I also know about cst (Change surrounding tag). But I'm wondering if there is a quick and easy way to wrap components. Some components might have closing tag and some components might not.

Is there any similar plugin to https://github.com/tpope/vim-surround?

Vim plugins (without UI) work out of the box. Hello vim-surround, argtextobj.vim and whatnot.

If you don't insist on staying in insert mode then you can use vim-surround, which is perfect for this: yse

But I mostly use ctrlp when I work with projects. A can recommend vim-ripgrep too, it lets you find strings/patterns in your project files.

You may find something like ctrlp useful. Some sort of fuzzy definition search.

My basic vim workflow is that I open vim, which opens NerdTree for me by default. I can find the file I want in NerdTree, or I can hit Ctrl+p to open a file with fuzzy searching.

I'd personally suggest ctrlp.vim: https://github.com/ctrlpvim/ctrlp.vim

ctrlp.vim - Fuzzy File Opener (req)

There's also some relevant plugins: - ctrlpvim/ctrlp.vim: Active fork of kien/ctrlp.vim—Fuzzy file, buffer, mru, tag, etc finder. - vijaymarupudi/nvim-fzf: A Lua API for using fzf in neovim. - nvim-telescope/telescope.nvim: Find, Filter, Preview, Pick. All lua, all the time. - gelguy/wilder.nvim: A more adventurous wildmenu

I have set the line let g:ctrlp_working_path_mode = 'r' and according to the GitHub repo it should allow Ctrl-P to do its searches in the whole project I'm in but it doesn't. It stop at the files opened by Neovim. Did I misunderstood the purpose of the plugin, or a I doing something wrong ?

i use ctrlp.vim
