DESCRIPTION This plugin defines repetition of Vim built-in normal mode commands via . for visual mode. Additionally, it offers functions like the popular repeat.vim plugin that allow mappings to be repeated in visual mode, too. VISUAL MODE REPETITION This extends the built-in normal mode repeat . to visual mode. VISUAL MODE MAPPING REPETITION Like with repeat.vim for normal mode, visual mode mappings can register a <Plug> mapping to be used for visual mode repetition. Likewise, normal mode mappings can (in addition to the repeat.vim registration of a normal mode mapping) register a visual mode mapping with visualrepeat.vim that will be repeated in visual mode. Operator-pending mappings end with g@ and repeat naturally; i.e. Vim re-applies the 'opfunc' on the equivalent text (but at the current cursor position). But without a call to repeat#set(), it is impossible to repeat this operator-pending mapping to the current visual selection. Plugins cannot call repeat#set() in their operator-pending mapping, because then Vim's built-in repeat would be circumvented, the full mapping ending with g@ would be re-executed, and the repetition would then wait for the {motion}, what is not wanted. Therefore, this plugin offers a separate visualrepeat#set() function that can be invoked for operator-pending mappings. It can also be invoked for normal-mode mappings that have already called repeat#set(), and may override that mapping with a special repeat mapping for visual mode repeats. Together with the remapped {Visual}. command, this allows repetition - similar to what the built-in Vim commands do - across normal, operator-pending and visual mode. SOURCE - Based on vimtip #1142, Repeat last command and put cursor at start of change     http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Repeat_last_command_and_put_cursor_at_start_of_change - The client interface and implementation has been based on repeat.vim   (vimscript #2136) by Tim Pope. RELATED WORKS - repeat.vim (vimscript #2136) has been the basis for this plugin and should   be used in conjunction with visualrepeat.vim. (Otherwise, you'd have visual   mode repeat, but no repeat in normal mode.) USAGE {Visual}.               Repeat last change in all visually selected lines.                         - characterwise: Start from cursor position.                         - linewise: Each line separately, starting from first column.                         - blockwise: Not supported.                         Note: If the last normal mode command included a                         {motion} (e.g. g~e), the repetition will also move                         exactly over this {motion}, NOT the visual selection!                         It is thus best to repeat commands that work on the                         entire line (e.g. g~$).

INSTALLATION This script is packaged as a vimball. If you have the "gunzip" decompressor in your PATH, simply edit the *.vmb.gz package in Vim; otherwise, decompress the archive first, e.g. using WinZip. Inside Vim, install by sourcing the vimball or via the :UseVimball command.     vim visualrepeat*.vmb.gz     :so % To uninstall, use the :RmVimball command. DEPENDENCIES - Requires Vim 7.0 or higher. - repeat.vim (vimscript #2136) plugin (highly recommended) INTEGRATION This plugin is meant to be used together with repeat.vim.
