description

The visincr plugin facilitates making a column of increasing or decreasing numbers, dates, or daynames. First, select a column using visual-block (ctrl-v) and move the cursor. Second, choose what sort of incremented list you want:     :I [#]  Will use the first line's number as a starting point to build             a column of increasing numbers (or decreasing numbers if the         increment is negative).         Default increment: 1         Justification    : left (will pad on the right)     :II [# [zfill]]  Will use the first line's number as a starting point         to build a column of increasing numbers (or decreasing numbers         if the increment is negative).         Default increment: 1         Justification    : right (will pad on the left)         Zfill            : left padding will be done with the given                            character, typically a zero.     :IYMD [#]    year/month/day     :IMDY [#]    month/day/year     :IDMY [#]    day/month/year         Will use the starting line's date to construct an increasing         or decreasing list of dates, depending on the sign of the         number.         Default increment: 1 (in days)     :ID [#] Will produce an increasing/decreasing list of daynames.  Three-letter             daynames will be used if the first day on the first line is a three         letter dayname; otherwise, full names will be used.     :IO [#]     :IIO [#] [zfill]         Like :I and :II, except visincr creates octal numbers.     :IR [#]     :IIR [#] [zfill]         Like :I and :II, except visincr uses Roman numerals.  Negative and         zero counts are not supported for Roman numerals.     :IX [#]     :IIX [#] [zfill]         Like :I and :II, except visincr creates hexadecimal numbers.     -------------------     EXTRA NOTES     -------------------     For :I :II :IO :IIO :IR :IIR :         If the visual block is ragged on the right-hand side (as can         easily happen when the "$" is used to select the         right-hand-side), the block will have spaces appended to         straighten it out.  If the string length of the count exceeds         the visual-block, then additional spaces will be inserted as         needed.  Leading tabs are handled by using virtual column         calculations.     For :IR and :IIR :         Since Roman numerals vary considerably in their lengths for         nearby numbers, an additional two spaces will be included.     For :IYMD, :IMDY, and IDMY:         You'll need the <calutil.vim> plugin, available as         "Calendar Utilities" under the following url:         http://mysite.verizon.net/astronaut/vim/index.html#CALUTIL Help is included, too -- check out  :he visincr-examples to see even more examples of each command in action.

install details

1. You need vimball v18 or later (vimscript#1502).  Please remove any vestiges of an older vimball first.     (if you have vim 7.1 or later, you can skip this step) 2. vim visincr.vba.gz     :so %     :q

package	script version	date	Vim version	user	release notes
visincr.vba.gz	20	2011-08-16	7.3	Charles Campbell	new     : IB and IIB support binary dec/incrementing; restricted incrementing support for :RIB, :RIIB, :RIO, :RIX, and :RIIX (ie. for binary, octal, and hexadecimal dec/incrementing); and optional long-command names. bugfixes: two-argument IIO, IIX commands; when selection with exclusive is used.
visincr.vba.gz	19	2007-12-19	7.0	Charles Campbell	Forgot to include calutil with visincr (its there now!)
visincr.vba.gz	18	2007-12-19	7.0	Charles Campbell	* Power based incrementing: IPOW (2,4,8,16,...) * Date dividers are no longer required * Calutil is included, and they use vim 7's autoload feature (load only on demand)
visincr.vba.gz	17	2006-09-19	7.0	Charles Campbell	(NEW) Visincr's commands now support expression-style completion. (NEW) g:visincr_datedivset support included: date dividers are (default) assumed to from the set [-./]; the separator actually used is the first one found in your date column.
visincr.vba.gz	16	2006-07-25	6.0	Charles Campbell	Roman numerals (:IR and :IIR) supported! :IX, :IIX, :IO, and :IIO now support negative increments and negative counts.
visincr.vba.gz	14	2006-06-12	7.0	Charles Campbell	Visincr now supports :IX, :IIX, :IO, and :IIO for creating hexadecimal and octal incremented lists, supports autoloading for faster vim startup, and informs users about :help visincr-calutil when necessary. Autoloading by itself necessitates requiring Vim version 7.0.
visincr.vim.gz	13	2006-03-20	6.0	Charles Campbell	A "zfill" of "" or '' now stands for an empty zfill. Bugfix: visincr now insures that the first character of a month or day incrementing sequence is capitalized. Bugfix: names embedded within lines weren't being incremented correctly; fixed!
visincr.vim.gz	12	2006-03-07	6.0	Charles Campbell	Zfill capability provided ( 01 02 03 ... style incrementing).  Users may now set g:visincr_dow and g:visincr_month to customize daynames and monthnames (for date incrementing).  Handles more vim option settings.
visincr.vim.bz2	11	2004-08-24	6.0	Charles Campbell	g:visincr_leaddate now allows one to specify a leading character to expand single-digit days and months into two-characters The :IM and :ID commands (increment month, increment day) now handle varying length long names
visincr.vim.bz2	9	2004-05-14	6.0	Charles Campbell	Visincr now supports incrementing/decrementing alphabetic lists:  ie. transform a column of (a) or a) into (a) (b) (c) (or a) b) c) ). Visincr can now increment or decrement integers, daynames, monthnames, dates, and alphabetic lists! (Help is automatically installed and made available using the HelpExtractor)
visincr.vim	8	2003-10-21	6.0	Charles Campbell	Now has month incrementing (:IM) and restriction-pattern commands (:RI, :RID, :RYMD, etc) which restrict application of renumbering only to those lines which have numbers/daynames/dates/monthnames, as appropriate for the command.
