2015-07-26Add 'vim-system-copy' pluginTeddy Wing
Big thanks to Chris Toomey for creating this plugin. Something I was trying to achieve using my v_<leader>c mapping but which never felt right, especially since that only ever allowed me linewise copies and no characterwise ones. Found out about this one at the Boston Vim meetup back on May 20 (or maybe rediscovered, as it sounded familiar but I obviously never pursued it). This is something I've been wanting for a long while, as my own mapping for it worked fine but wasn't the most ideal.
2015-07-24vimrc: Correct spelling in commentTeddy Wing
"changes" instead of "changed"
2015-07-23vimrc: Change pick command from `find` to `ag`Teddy Wing
Speed things up by getting a file list from `ag`.
2015-07-23vimrc: Move comment to git-blamer pluginTeddy Wing
Made more sense to move it there since all the functionality is now being performed in the plugin instead of in my vimrc.
2015-07-23Add git-blamer pluginTeddy Wing
Create a plugin that runs a `git blame` and opens the result in a new vertical split. This one builds on a43d3caaea3682f58aee6dc295e48cca415067c5 but improves it by adding some extra niceties including moving to the line the cursor was on in the original file, setting appropriate flags so that the split doesn't appear in the buffer list and becomes non-modifiable, and setting cursor and scroll binding so that the buffers scroll together. An `autocmd` resets the original buffer to `noscrollbind` and `nocursorbind`.
2015-07-23vimrc: Open `git blame` in less instead of in new splitTeddy Wing
Easier and more quick-and-dirty. Doesn't create a new buffer. I'll probably switch back to the Vim split version, but I'd like to get it to open on the current line before I do.
2015-07-23vimrc: Add mapping to `git blame` current bufferTeddy Wing
Inspired by a mapping I happened upon in Ben Orenstein's vimrc, this will open a new vertical split with the `git blame` of the current buffer. Still needs to be refined, but this should be useful without having to install Fugitive (as I'm not convinced I need most of what the plugin provides). Noticed recently that I've been `git blame`ing a file I have open in Vim, and need to type out the file path into a terminal in order to get to it. Would be much quicker to just open this in Vim.
2015-07-21vimrc: Add Netrw mappings for :Explore and its siblingsTeddy Wing
Typing `:E` is not difficult, and while `:Sex` and `:Vex` were not great to type, they were okay. What really tipped me over the edge was `:Rex`. And since I use Netrw more frequently these days, it's finally annoying enough that I want some more efficient mappings for these commands.
2015-07-14vimrc: Add <leader>bb mappingTeddy Wing
Added a bunch of mappings in 061f2a2298c2c8419d9cab61749d9db3758f8690 to open buffers in all manner of ways but forgot the simplest one: open in the current window. Do that here with a <leader>bb mapping.
2015-07-14vimrc: Set `splitright`Teddy Wing
Open new vertical splits to the right of the current window because I often end up moving my newly-opened split to the right anyway. Makes sense to have Vim do it for me and save a few keystrokes.
2015-07-13README: Add pick to the plugin listTeddy Wing
2015-07-13README: Remove Command-T from the plugin listTeddy Wing
Now that I've removed Command-T (236fcf4d68da2c5076b37081dc13ff4b865c528a), we should remove it from the list.
2015-07-13vimrc: Update pick mappingsTeddy Wing
Use our old Command-T mapping but extend it to work in the context of pick, where we need to have separate mappings depending on how we want to open a file or buffer.
2015-07-13vimrc: Remove Command-T configurationTeddy Wing
Now that I've removed Command-T (236fcf4d68da2c5076b37081dc13ff4b865c528a), we can remove its configuration.
2015-07-13Remove 'Command-T' pluginTeddy Wing
I absolutely love Command-T, and it's served me so well over the last year and a few months. Its native Ruby C extension makes it super fast, much faster than CtrlP. That said, it can take 2-3 seconds to initialise if its cache is empty, so when I start a new Vim instance or clear Command-T's cache after adding or removing files or switching to a git branch that's very different, I have to wait for it to do its thing. This initialisation time really got on my nerves last week when I constantly had to clear Command-T's cache for some reason in order for it to list the files I was looking for, resulting in more waiting than I would have liked. Because of this, I went looking around at other options to test their speed. I've settled on Thoughtbot's pick(1) after testing out different fuzzy finder plugins.
2015-07-13vimrc: Remove Unite configurationTeddy Wing
Now that I've removed Unite in 95256a840f492eaa45c8a0e78791a0916821f9a9, we can remove its configuration and mappings.
2015-07-13Remove 'Unite' pluginTeddy Wing
My primary use case for Unite was as a potential replacement for Command-T. It's pretty cool, but since it operated at about the same speed as CtrlP on my large work project, I'm afraid I'm going to remove it in favour of pick.
2015-07-13vimrc: Remove CtrlP configurationTeddy Wing
Since I removed CtrlP in 1aa1b4d3258c8d962f965da3e33ee20ee206d5f0, we can remove its configuration also.
2015-07-13Remove 'CtrlP' pluginTeddy Wing
Even with ag, ctrlp has been much too slow in my huge work project. Ctrlp actions consistenty take seconds to complete there. Settling on pick as my new fuzzy finder.
2015-07-13vimrc: Add extended pick.vim buffer mappingsTeddy Wing
* Add new mappings to have pick.vim open buffers in a new split, vsplit, or tab * Add `PickBufferListCommand` function copied directly from the pick.vim plugin to give me the correct pick list since the function isn't accessible outside the script. We can then combine this list with the appropriate opening command.
2015-07-13vimrc: Use `find` as pick.vim commandTeddy Wing
By default pick.vim uses `git ls-files` for its file listing. This ignores untracked files, which I would like to be able to open. Use a custom pick command copied from the pick.vim source to show untracked files in the pick list.
2015-07-13vimrc: Add mappings for pick.vimTeddy Wing
Mappings to run pick and open a buffer from it in various configurations.
2015-07-12vimrc: Use ag for Ctrl-PTeddy Wing
Use `ag` as Ctrl-P's grep program to make it faster.
2015-07-12vimrc: Add unite.vim mappingsTeddy Wing
* Mappings to open files and buffers with Unite.vim in split buffers and tabs * Use fuzzy matching * Use `ag` as the backing grep program to make things faster
2015-07-12Install pick.vimTeddy Wing
Trying out the pick(1) fuzzy finder from Thoughtbot. Seeing how fast it is out of the gate.
2015-07-12Install CtrlPTeddy Wing
Testing out CtrlP as a Command-T alternative at the same time as Unite.vim. Figure I might as well try all of these to see which one I end up liking most.
2015-07-12Install Unite.vimTeddy Wing
Curious about other Command-T options because it's been feeling a bit slow lately. Testing out Unite.vim to see if it might work for me.
2015-07-11vimrc: Disable auditory.vimTeddy Wing
Wish there was an easy way to toggle the plugin on and off with a command in the plugin (e.g. `:AuditoryToggle`). Would be nice to enable it when I wanted to and have it disabled at other times. I like it but there are times when I don't want my computer to be playing music when I'm typing or editing text. Disable it by default.
2015-07-11.gitmodules: Change location of auditory.vimTeddy Wing
Use the remote URL instead of a local path.
2015-07-11vimrc: Remove Autocommands sectionTeddy Wing
This was commented out anyway and I don't plan on using the vimrc sourcing command. This section can be safely removed.
2015-07-11vimrc: Remove CopyModeToggle commandTeddy Wing
Haven't used this command in ages because it doesn't really work well. These days I use my <leader>c visual mapping for copying text instead of copying it directly from the window. This command also doesn't handle copying from split windows. Pretty soon I should install Chris Toomey's text object copy plugin as that will be quite a bit nicer than my current system.
2015-07-10vimrc: Remove <leader>bl mappingTeddy Wing
I wasn't using it, instead favouring `:ls`, so we don't need it any more.
2015-07-09vimrc: Add Netrw window size & sort optionsTeddy Wing
* Move Netrw settings down to the Plugins section * Set an empty window size to make new :Vexplore windows open at half-width instead of being fixed at 25-ish columns (or whatever I had set for NERD Tree). Even after removing NERD Tree, for some reason :Vexplore refuses to open windows at the default unset window size, always using 25-ish. * Set case-insensitive sort so that uppercase file names don't appear above lowercase file names because it's confusing for the list to not be fully alphabetical from top to bottom.
2015-07-06README: Remove NERDTree from plugin listTeddy Wing
Now that I've removed the plugin (6d7ea2be365959b8aa348d5942846111a85480f6), it can be removed from the list.
2015-07-06vimrc: Remove NERD Tree configurationTeddy Wing
Now that I removed NERD Tree (6d7ea2be365959b8aa348d5942846111a85480f6), this configuration is no longer needed.
2015-07-06Remove 'NERD Tree' pluginTeddy Wing
I've been using Netrw more and more after 9ec85f7fa5e118c0630e6b6457b71e80e57fa5dd. I think I'm going to switch over and leave NERD Tree now. Haven't really been using it for anything other than showing multiple directory levels of a project in a single view, which I now know is something Netrw can do. Also I mostly use Command-T opening files so haven't been using the plugin much lately.
2015-07-06vimrc: Remove EasyGrep configurationTeddy Wing
Now that I removed the EasyGrep plugin (52927a37be4b978417c7835cebeed975ef90e0ca), we no longer need to set its configuration options.
2015-07-06README: Remove EasyGrep from plugin listTeddy Wing
Now that I've removed EasyGrep in 52927a37be4b978417c7835cebeed975ef90e0ca, remove it from the README's plugin list.
2015-07-06Remove 'EasyGrep' pluginTeddy Wing
No longer using this one. I've been using ag exclusively, mostly directly from the console but sometimes using the plugin. For find and replace I've gotten more adept at using the arglist, so I haven't used EasyGrep in a long time. It can also be kind of slow, mostly because it doesn't use ag. Not sure if there's a way to integrate the two.
2015-06-04vimrc: Fix CHANGELOG dateTeddy Wing
Wanted to capture the fact that the `g:netrw_liststyle` change was made on 2015.06.02 but forgot to change to today's date when adding the CHANGELOG entry for the `<leader>or` change.
2015-06-04vimrc: Add <leader>or mappingTeddy Wing
Add a mapping to open the current file in `ranger`, the console file explorer. I already have a similar command to open the current file in Finder, but these days I find ranger a bit more pleasant to use, particularly if I'm already in the console. It's definitely more keyboard-friendly. This came about because I was trying to copy a file and the built-in Vim methods for doing so that I know of were more complicated than I wanted. 1. Use :saveas [filename] This method does the right thing in copying but the copy goes to Vim's :pwd. I wanted it to go to the same directory the file was in. 2. Use Netrw The mf mt mc commands were a little confuddling to me. It makes sense when copying a file to a directory, but how do I duplicate a file in the same directory? 3. Use :shell Opens a shell, but in Vim's :pwd, not in the current file's directory. Maybe I should make a mapping for this.
2015-06-04vimrc: set g:netrw_liststyle=3Teddy Wing
Use Netrw's tree view. This makes Netrw function a lot more like NERDTree. In fact, that's the primary reason why I use NERDTree in the rare cases that I need it these days. We can probably remove NERDTree from the plugin list after this. Thanks very much to Mo Zhu for introducing me to this setting at BostonRB project night last Tuesday. Would have committed it then but I was thinking I'd do some plugin changes and uninstall NERDTree before doing so. I haven't and now I want to make another change to my vimrc so let's just commit this now.
2015-04-24Add ftdetect/gemfile.vimTeddy Wing
Set Gemfiles to use the `ruby` filetype so that they open with Ruby syntax highlighting automatically. Too much of a pain to `:set ft=ruby` every time.
2015-04-02write-with-spaces: Enable tab completionTeddy Wing
Turn on tab completion to make it easier to navigate to a directory to save the file in.
2015-03-26Add write-with-spaces pluginTeddy Wing
Add a plugin to provide a way to write file names with spaces. Came from a Vim forum post. Handy to not have to always type backslashes if I want to save a file with spaces in it.
2015-03-17ftplugin/mail.vim: Set nojoinspacesTeddy Wing
Noticed when writing emails that when a line ends with a period, two spaces are added after it, meaning there are now two spaces between my sentences. Personally I hate this practise even though I understand why it makes sense when using fixed-width typefaces. Set nojoinspaces to make it stop happening.
2015-02-09Add vim-unimpaired merge conflict movementsTeddy Wing
Grab the movement commands `[n` and `]n` to move between merge conflict markers. Makes it easier to get around when fixing conflicts in vimdiff. Copied from Tim Pope's vim-unimpaired plugin.
2015-01-28ftplugin/mail.vim: Turn on spell checkingTeddy Wing
It's useful to have spell checking on when writing emails.
2015-01-27Add ftplugin/mail.vimTeddy Wing
Add formatoptions for composing email messages. Using a recommendation from here: http://wcm1.web.rice.edu/mutt-tips.html regarding format=flowed emails.
2015-01-24Create ftplugin/eruby.vim with indentation settingsTeddy Wing
Looks like ERB files would take their indentation settings from the ruby setting (2 spaces). I want 4-space indentation in my ERB, at least typically that's what I want when I'm writing HTML with embedded ruby. Apply that accordingly.
