I installed my Vim config on another machine recently and noticed that
it didn't automatically set 'bs=2', like in my normal environment. Put
this in our vimrc because it should just work everywhere.
|
|
Thanks to "aegray" for asking how to jump to a specific window using
automatic numbers instead of using `<C-w>hjklw` on Freenode#vim. This
prompted me to look up `:h winnr()`, which I remember from a long time
ago, and learn that you can use the window numbers with `<C-w>w`, as in
`3<C-w>w`.
This will make it much easier to move around between my sometimes many
windows. In order to be able to tell which window has which number, add
the `winnr()` to the statusline.

Tested this out for a while without committing it and it turns out I
actually started using this mapping frequently enough, so I'm saving it.
The real impetus for this is that I recently (in the last couple months)
set:
$ git config commit.verbose 1
to get a diff of changes to be committed in my Vim commit buffer. This
is really handy. Often I end up opening Vim windows to see the rest of
the diff while still having my commit message open and visible. Thus my
normal workflow of writing a commit message and committing with ZZ no
longer works in these cases where there are multiple windows open. To
more quickly save the commit message and quit all windows, this command
comes in really handy.

A mapping to invoke our new 'whitespace-method-chain' plugin.
|
|
Get rid of this freaking good-for-nothing command that keeps g'all dang
messing me the frak up and closing my windows!
|
|
When hitting <C-w> to initiate a window command, I kept accidentally
hitting <C-w>q and quitting the window I was in. This was extremely
aggravating, because (1) it would be surprising and confusing for a
couple seconds, and (2) I'd have to stop what I was doing and get my
workspace back to what it was before.
I was accidentally hitting it because the 'w' and 'q' keys are so close
together.
The only difference I can see between <C-w>q and <C-w>c is that the 'q'
version will quit Vim if the current window is the last one. I don't see
myself needing that functionality with 'ZQ' readily available. Since
closing a window is a destructive operation, I prefer it being farther
away on the keyboard (even though 'c' is right next to 'v' and that
confusion has messed me up sometimes).
All that said, get rid of this command that has a more useful
equivalent, that I don't see myself using, and that has messed me up at
least three times already.

Using `<leader>z` works well, but now I want to be able to run a single
test so I can iterate while writing it.
|
|
Typing <leader>tf was too many keys. I wanted to shorten the command a
bit to make running tests really quick.
|
|
Leverage 'vim-rspec' to make it easy for us to run the current spec
file.
|
|
I never use this command, so I don't really see a need to keep it in my
vimrc. Removing it along with the "Commands" section marker (since that
was our only command defined here).
|
|
* Set a Lisp implementation (SBCL)
* Define the SWANK command (copied from Slimv's documentation). The docs
provide three different command options, one that creates a new OS X
Terminal window using `osascript` (which I didn't really like as it's
intrusive), and the other two using `screen` and `tmux`. Opted for the
`screen` version.
|
|
Since our `<leader>sb` mapping is a toggle command for `scrollbind`,
it can be hard to know whether it's on or off after invoking it if you
haven't been paying attention. Output `setl scrollbind?` after
performing the toggle so that the current `scrollbind` value displays in
the command line area to make it clear what happened.
|
|
This is to make it easier to preview HTML files in a browser. Otherwise
I would either open the file in Finder with `<leader>of` and drag it to
a browser in my Dock or open a new terminal, `cd` into the right
directory, start a Python `SimpleHTTPServer`, and finally navigate to
`localhost:8000/___` in a browser. This makes doing the first option
quick and easy.
Since we're opening the file directly, this will use the `file://`
protocol, but that's enough to be able to take a look at small pages.
|
|
Copy the current file's path with `pbcopy` to make it faster to perform
operations on the current file in another shell window.
|
|
Setting this is no longer necessary to make Auditory sounds turn off by
default because they now start off as of version 0.1.0 (we're now at
0.1.2 – 8d14cf29ab0f9200a23362980f94bfa232810c4c).
|
|
Use `git log -p -- [file]` instead of the version without hyphens to
explicitly tell `git log` that we want the log of a file.
|
|
Open the current file's `git log -p [file]` with a quick mapping so I
don't have to switch to another terminal or Ctrl-Z and type in the git
command manually. This is something that I do quite often so it felt
ripe for a mapping to make it quicker.

* Remove project files from the ignore list
* Add project config files as they are now
* Create a new untracked file to keep track of project directory paths
The reason why I never tracked project files in the repo was because I
didn't want my file paths to be shared publicly. But over time I've been
making changes to my `flashnotes.vim` config and wanted to be able to
track those changes, especially the `ctags` ones.
Now, I'm able to track those config files and still hide my file paths
from public view using a set of environment variables defined in
`.vim/projects/file-paths.vim`.
|
|
"changes" instead of "changed"
|
|
Speed things up by getting a file list from `ag`.
|
|
Made more sense to move it there since all the functionality is now
being performed in the plugin instead of in my vimrc.
|
|
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`.
|
|
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.
|
|
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.
|
|
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.
|
|
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.
|
|
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.
|
|
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.
|
|
Now that I've removed Command-T
(236fcf4d68da2c5076b37081dc13ff4b865c528a), we can remove its
configuration.
|
|
Now that I've removed Unite in 95256a840f492eaa45c8a0e78791a0916821f9a9,
we can remove its configuration and mappings.
|
|
Since I removed CtrlP in 1aa1b4d3258c8d962f965da3e33ee20ee206d5f0, we
can remove its configuration also.
|
|
* 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.
|
|
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.
|
|
Mappings to run pick and open a buffer from it in various
configurations.
|
|
Use `ag` as Ctrl-P's grep program to make it faster.
|
|
* 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
|
|
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.
|
|
This was commented out anyway and I don't plan on using the vimrc
sourcing command. This section can be safely removed.
|
|
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.
|
|
I wasn't using it, instead favouring `:ls`, so we don't need it any
more.
|
|
* 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.
|
|
Now that I removed NERD Tree (6d7ea2be365959b8aa348d5942846111a85480f6),
this configuration is no longer needed.
|
|
Now that I removed the EasyGrep plugin
(52927a37be4b978417c7835cebeed975ef90e0ca), we no longer need to set its
configuration options.
|
|
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.

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.
|
|
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.

Add setting to preserve file attributes, such as creation date. I went
to check the creation date of a file I know was created at least a year
ago, but its creation date was today and the same as its modified date.
I had recently edited the file in Vim, and that ended up being the
problem.
This setting ensures that files are reused so their attributes are
preserved.
What an unfortunate loss of history since last April.

Add a mapping to read from the OS X pasteboard. Pasting directly in
insert mode is excessively slow when dealing with a lot of text. Likely
caused by too much redrawing. Reading directly from the OS X pasteboard
is much faster, so add a mapping for that.
|
|
This setting tells vim not to save options & mappings in persisted
sessions. This allows open buffers, windows, and tabs to be saved but
configuration options and plugins to be different when reopening a
session. Useful if I've made modifications to my vimrc after creating a
session.
Found out about this from https://github.com/xolox/vim-session. Really
cool that this exists. It's been something that annoyed me for a while
but I never bothered to find a solution.
|

Never being able to move by word in command mode would always get on my
nerves. In particular if I was trying compose a long command. Sure you
can bring up a command window but that's not what I think of first when
starting to writing a command.
Luckily `cmdline.txt` in vim help has the answer! Since Shift-Left/Right
doesn't work for me and I'm using Control-Left/Right to move between OS
X spaces (not even sure if the Control modifier version works for this
either), create bash/emacs-style mappings to move between words in
command mode.
I'm sorry I didn't find this earlier but it does feel good to have a big
annoyance solved.
