richsoni / vim-ecliptic Goto Github PK

Hello,

ecliptic is generally working, but if I copy something from a window that isn't my vim buffer and then try to use {visual selection}cp, nothing is replaced but the selected data is copied into the clipboard buffer.

then if i do cp again, what was selected will be pasted, not what I had originally had in my buffer.

Oddly, if I do for example a cyy and then {visual selection}cp, what was copied is pasted over the visual selection.

Thanks for the help,
Rob

Hello and thank you for this plugin.

Not sure if it's just me, but when I try visually selecting anything and press cy Vim doesn't copy the selected text right away (I need to press something else). This has something to do with the ambiguity of the mapping's name. When I make the following change it works as expected:

vnoremap <silent> <Plug>EclipticVY_v    :call <SID>EclipticCopy(visualmode())<cr>
vnoremap <silent> <Plug>EclipticVY_V    :call <SID>EclipticCopy('V')<cr> # I think it makes sense to change this to _V too

This applies to visual deletion as well.

Btw, there's an echo "here" debug code that's lying around in your code.

Nice plugin, I'll be using it because typing "+ just isn't comfy sometimes.

I'm concerned about the c namespace in visual mode though. I think c is used with visual mode quite often and after installing this plugin there's now this "lag" (which totally makes sense).

I was thinking about the alternatives to c "namespace" to avoid this problem - so how about the feature that would enable setting a user defined key as a namespace? Leaving the default as-is is fine.

Personally, I think I would set it to + key so I'd have +y and +yy etc. - is a tempting option because it's even easier to type.

So, what do you say?

this edge case needs to be handled separately
