now always pop up veritcally, which made sense to me considering their
column width and the average size of screens these day), touched up
the readme and some missing keyboard toggles, added a few more formats
relevant to emmet, and gave variables default values in the configs so they
don't need to be declared (default values are stated in the README)
back and opted to simply reverse them all- Lots of colour changes, the
update script now removes decommissioned bundles, gentags script can now
have additional paths added to it when generating a tags file, README is
much improved, fixed a few issues that required remapping some toggles,
fixed a bunch of issues with the colourscheme between the terminal and
gvim. You can now setup a custom config file to have loaded after the
darkcloud-vimconfig ones, and there's a custom location for pathogen
modules too, to make things tidier without necessarily needing to use
an additional runtimepath. You can also create a file in your home
directory to assign filetypes to programs, for use with the file
manager. A file can be placed in ~/.vim/ with file associations and
prorams to launch them with. The file manager will also open a file with
vim by hitting shift+enter, since e isn't all that comfortablly placed.
The vimrc can now also point to the darkcloud-vimconfig folder, rather
than relying on the vim folder being in a specific location, and the
after folder is now configured to work in the project too.
improvements to the syntax highlighting and overall theme. the undo
sidebar should now fit better on smaller screens too (you can resize it
with the mouse if it's too small)
file manager's theme, settings and keyboard mappings. Played around with
the keyboard mappings in general quite a bit more. All the toggles
output what they're doing now, though not their actual status in most
cases at this point, and only in normal mode. The bottom scrollbar is
now part of the gui scrollbar toggle as it turned out it can be
auto-disabled when the content isn't wide enough anyway. I realized
a bad hack to get visual paste ontop to work without replacing the paste
buffer with whatever it was pasting over meant that pasting at the start
and end of the line would leave issues with spacing, so I found a plugin
that fixed the problem the right way and hooked things up through that..
Whether syntax checking is enabled by default or needs to be toggled on
can now be set in the vimrc. Some small bugfixes and improvements were
also made.
Nerdtree was dropped in favour of the much better vimfiler. The status
bar was reconfigured to display more information including the current
number of errors. A script was added that can generate a tags file from
/usr/include for more robust syntax checking in C. The update script was
updated to hopefully handle the removal of nerdtree when it updates the
submodules... Syntax highlighting has been improved in numerous
directions including more definitions as well as tweaked colours.
Keybindings were tweaked again and new ones added for the new features.
The paste function was incorrectly using buffer 0 instead of the current
buffer when in visual mode, but this is no longer the case.
Autocompletion has been improved quite a bit and the keybindings
tweaked. A bunch of general fixes and tidying up was done.
available. Updated the README. Improved the theme by adding a bunch
of syntax highlighting definitions (mostly rooted in html, though
a bunch of other languages base their colours on it), as well as
tweaking visual selection to longer invert on the block with the cursor,
and parenthesis matching to look the same at both ends. Added a plugin
that improves the theme and adds some keyboard shortcuts to markdown,
which is what the README.md files in Github are written in. I realized
that the h,j,k,l shortcuts equivalent to the ones with arrow keys I'd
added were overwriting other shortcuts with the shift combinations, so
I removed those and the ctrl-ones for consistency. The diff shortcuts
weren't intuitive or easy on the hands, so I tried something else and
I think it works much better now (check vim/keyboard.vim). An update
script has also been added to simplify updating submodules; I'm not
completely clear as to whether following this method will properly
update the submodules in certain conditions like when one is removed,
but this should add new ones and update the existing ones after pulling
from the repo.
launching vimdiff. Reorganized the keyboard bindings to make htem easier
to find and read. You can now trigger most of the cut commands by
hitting the <Leader> key (backslash) first to avoid replacing the
paste-buffer. A bunch of commands and toggles that made sense to do so
now work in all three modes. All folds can be toggled with <shift-F12>.
The command to turn tabs into spaces has been added. A few settings
added earlier today were tweaked or removed.
the README, made <backspace> delete the selection and cursor character
in visual and normal modes respectively, and set \| to add the currently
selected word to the local dictionary for spellcheck (remembering that
\\ displays a list of correct spellings)
visual, :wsudo and :esudo can now be run with :sudow and :sudoe, fixed
a few issues where gvim settings wouldn't be enabled if gvim was started
using :gui in command mode, = now does what + does so you can use - and
+ without holding shift for the + part, the ctrl/shift
up/down/left/right + h/j/k/l stuff now works the same for both using the
behaviour I suspect most people will expect from them, a 'lot' of
behaviour that didn't work in tmux should now work provided tmux is
using xterm-keys and has its $TERM set to screen*, a bunch of new
default settings have been added to settings.vim (though they're mostly
subtle or behind the scenes tweaks) and it's commented and organized
better now too, and the gvim menubar no longer appears by default (but
you can toggle it with <Ctrl><F1>)
case are now all different colors, and those along with a few other
colours have been tweaked to better matches the theme, and the non-colour
term theme should more closely match too. The F1-F3+F12 toggles
now work in all three editor modes, and F4 has been added to toggle
spellcheck, which also works in all three modes (depending on the
filetype, sometimes it will start on and others off). You can now place
your cursor on an misspelled word in normal mode and hit \\ (backslash
twice) to create a drop down menu with suggestions.
