kandi X-RAY | Vim Summary
Vim is a greatly improved version of the good old UNIX editor Vi. Many new features have been added: multi-level undo, syntax highlighting, command line history, on-line help, spell checking, filename completion, block operations, script language, etc. There is also a Graphical User Interface (GUI) available. Still, Vi compatibility is maintained, those who have Vi "in the fingers" will feel at home. See runtime/doc/vi_diff.txt for differences with Vi. This editor is very useful for editing programs and other plain text files. All commands are given with normal keyboard characters, so those who can type with ten fingers can work very fast. Additionally, function keys can be mapped to commands by the user, and the mouse can be used. Vim runs under MS-Windows (NT, 2000, XP, Vista, 7, 8, 10), Macintosh, VMS and almost all flavours of UNIX. Porting to other systems should not be very difficult. Older versions of Vim run on MS-DOS, MS-Windows 95/98/Me, Amiga DOS, Atari MiNT, BeOS, RISC OS and OS/2. These are no longer maintained.

QUESTION
I've stumbled upon a quite innovative functionality in editor – ability to TAB-complete symbols from CTags index, on this Asciinema video.
I wonder if there is anything like it available for Vim? I've been using many completion engines like eg. CoC, however none of them seems to offer what NeoMCEdit does. Is there such plugin for Vim?
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Jun-15 at 21:01Basic keyword completion, :help i_ctrl-p
/:help i_ctrl-n
, already does that out of the box because of the default value of :help 'complete'
.
Alternatively, you can use your tags
files as exclusive source with :help i_ctrl-x_ctrl-]
.
QUESTION
How to remove VIM (completely) and change my mac command line editor to sublime?
I've spent the last three hours reading the same links on "how to remove VIM" only to get "how to remove MacVIM and reinstall it fresh" Or "How to remove Vim so I can reinstall it on Ubuntu"
My old laptop was fortunate to have a friend remove it but my new machine still has it installed.
I wish VIM would die in "words redacted to excessive profanity" dumpster fire while a hobo "words redacted to excessive profanity" to put out the fire
I've lost way too many hours trying to learn that outdated neckbeard elvish piece of UX trash so I want it gone. No, I'm not touching emacs.
Please tell me there is a way I can switch to sublime or am I permanently cursed to have this confusing black screen of death pop up when I try to git push or git tag stuff?
My original goal was to tag a git and push it but vim comes up and I can't figure out how to speak elvish.
I've been using PyCharm for a few years and love the interface but I need to dig deeper and a TDD Django book for class uses the terminal, it wants me to git -a "comments" so I need your advice.
So now I can't learn TDD Django because vim, MacVim and eMacs users flood the internet but I can't remove it nor figure out how to work it.
I've tried brew uninstall macvim
which doesn't work because I have vim not macvim
I also tried sudo uninstall vim
no luck as this is zsh mac not ubuntu
I tried brew uninstall vim
to get No available formula or cask with the name "vim"
I've searched SO five times and keep getting the same links.
Alternates I've tried
brew uninstall ruby vim
per this post https://superuser.com/questions/1096438/brew-upgrade-broke-vim-on-os-x-dyld-library-not-loaded I tried, no luck.
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Jun-14 at 21:41You don't have to remove Vim from your machine. Instead, tell your system and your tools to use Sublime Text as default editor. After you have followed that tutorial, which I must point out is part of Sublime Text's documentation, you should have a system-wide subl
command that you can use instead of vim
. For that, you need to add those lines to your shell configuration file:

I am newbie to Vim world, and I see so many people using VIM, whats the convincing part of it that attracts people? i mean they can already use the GUI based Editors , aren't we moving backwards? . I've read so many blogs, watched videos, still didn't find the perfect sense to use it.
If anyone is experienced can you tell me in simple English what is the purpose of VIM over Other Development environments.
How will it help me in my C++ learning journey? or will it?
I dont think it is good question to ask here, but i am very curious to get some insights.

QUESTION
I am trying to add a ruby tag for every word in a paragraph. The html doc looks somthing like this
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Jun-12 at 19:51Looking at the documentation one way might be to leverage new_tag()
and decompose()
. As you want to treat punctuation also within separate tags then regex can be used to generate the content for each new ruby
tag. I used the regex from @user3850.
Create a new p
tag, during a loop, and append your ruby
tags, you can then decompose()
the original p
tag.
QUESTION
Every time I use a colorscheme for vim(WSL) from Github it shows some trailing colors normally within the first 10 lines and sometimes for the entire code like in the link. At first, I thought that it was just highlighting the trailing spaces, but even after removing them, it reverts to its original form on changing cursor locations. Pretty new to vim, so please help me.
My .vimrc:
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Jun-12 at 18:05So, apparently the problem lies with windows, or the WSL to be precise. WSL does not seem to support the set termguicolors
which is responsible for the weird colors appearing on screen. And because this is essential for several colorschemes (otherwise they look very different). So unless WSL2 provides this feature I don't think it is possible for windows to have any of the fancy colorschemes. The best option is to probably use a virtual machine and run linux or dual-boot your device.
QUESTION
Sometimes Vim plugins suggest a load order, but Vim nowaday natively supports loading plugins with no plugin manager. You just put a submodule in a folder such as ~/.vim/pack/vendor/start
and it'll automatically load. So, my question is how do you ensure a load order similar to how people would previously. Older way of doing things example below:
ANSWER
Answered 2021-Jun-11 at 06:22Let's try a little experiment…
Create the following dummy files with their corresponding content:
Filepath Contentpack/dummy/start/nerdtree/plugin/foo.vim
echom "nerdtree"
pack/dummy/start/nerdtree-git-plugin/plugin/bar.vim
echom "nerdtree-git-plugin"
pack/dummy/start/vim-devicons/plugin/baz.vim
echom "vim-devicons"
Start Vim and you should see something like the following:

I was trying to change my coc.nvim autocomplete key, and found this question in Stack Overflow, but the guy who answer this question doesn't explain really good how to customize it as you want, so I will explain it to help the NeoVim users that are racking the brain for this as I was.

i use parrot security as my daily distro. its mate terminal is transparent so is vim .but i wanted to get auto complete and used some plugins.auto complete window appears to be in pink which looks really ugly in semi transparent black background.i changed the theme and it was fixed but so was gone vim transparency .
in short word (1)i have to keep the default (2)i have to keep transparent vim (3)i have to change the auto complete window from pink to semi transparent black
here is my init.vimrc
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Jun-09 at 19:27If you are using neovim there is an option called :h pumblend
which can be used to change the transparency of the popup menu.
Are you sure gruvbox
caused your vim to lose transparency? I am not sure if vim is able to change a terminal emulator's transparency. I or someone else might be able to advise you better if you post pictures of what has changed.
QUESTION
I'm currently building my own color scheme for Vim, and I'm doing so by adding to an existing config I got from who-knows-where and editing it as I see fit.
The problem is that there's no description for the syntax IDs, as far as I can tell. For example, even with standard Vim IDs, how am I supposed to know what ColorColumn
refers to? PmenuSbar
? With so many IDs it's impossible to guess and check to see what refers to what.
Then you open that up with other languages and plugins and it becomes even more complicated.
I get that with plugins you're probably at the mercy of whoever wrote them, but at least for standard, in-built syntax highlighting, is there any documentation somewhere on what all these refer to? I cannot find anything for some of these keys, even by searching for them individually.
Ideally this would be something as simple as I can place my cursor on ColorColum
in my color config file, run some command, and get a description for what that key refers to.
ANSWER
Answered 2021-Jun-07 at 02:48Worst SEO in the world but I eventually found this site which goes over some of the inbuilt syntax: http://vimdoc.sourceforge.net/htmldoc/syntax.html
