DESCRIPTION As an add-on to the ChangeGlobally.vim plugin (vimscript #4321), this plugin implements a gC variant that uses a "smart case" substitution which covers variations in upper-/lowercase ("maxSize" vs. "MaxSize") as well as different coding styles like CamelCase and underscore_notation ("maxSize", "MAX_SIZE"). The gC command works just like built-in c, and after leaving insert mode applies the local substitution to all other occurrences (according to the SmartCase-rules) in the current line (in case of a small character change) or, when entire line(s) where changed, to the rest of the buffer. This is especially useful for variable renamings and all the other small tactical edits that you're doing frequently. It is much faster than doing a single change and repeating it, or building a :substitute command, especially since you would have to repeat that for all text variants that SmartCase covers. USAGE [N]["x]gC{motion}       Like gc, but also substitute close textual variants {Visual}[N]["x]gC       of the changed text according to the SmartCase-rules:                         - variations in upper-/lowercase                           ("maxSize" vs. "MaxSize")                         - different coding styles like CamelCase and                           underscore_notation ("maxSize", "MAX_SIZE") ["x]gCC                 Like gcc, but with SmartCase-rules. It's probably                         less useful than gC, but added for completeness. EXAMPLE Suppose you have a line like this, and you want to rename the type from "NodeList" to "FooBarSet", and adapt the variable name, too:     function set nodeList(nodeList:NodeList):void; // Update node list. With the cursor on the start of any of the "nodeList", type gCe, enter the text "fooBarSet", then press <Esc>. The line will turn into     function set fooBarSet(fooBarSet:FooBarSet):void; // Update foo bar set. You can now re-apply this substitution to other lines or a visual selection via .
