description

Lets you set and toggle a mark on a line without specifying which mark to use exactly.  wokmarks will choose an unused mark from a pool of allowed marks.  The script is quite verbose: you will get info which mark was set, removed or jumped to. Usage: (default keys) tm set pool mark for current line (if no local mark exists) tt toggle pool mark for current line tk tj jump to the [count]th local mark above/below the cursor position (like [' and ]' which are less verbose). Without count, the search for marks wraps around the buffer boundaries. tl list local marks tD remove all pool marks from the buffer or pool marks in range "t" actually is a built-in command; see below if you want to map other keys in the vimrc. Local marks = pool marks + user marks.  User marks will not be set or removed by the script. v0.3: The toggle hook will be executed whenever wokmarks adds or removes marks.  Purpose is to be able to update external marks highlighting etc.  Add a command to the hook:      :autocmd User WokmarksChange   :MyMarksHighlightingUpdate This must not be wrapped in an augroup -- this way you can define the autocmd before wokmarks is loaded. Customization: :let g:wokmarks_pool = "abcdfghijklmnopqrtuvwxyz" (string) Pool of allowed marks.  The marks s and e excluded here (user marks), they are commonly used for start and end positions. :let g:wokmarks_do_maps = 1 (number) Values: 0    don't map any keys 1    map the default keys 2    map Ctrl-F2 to toggle a mark, and  F2 / Shift-F2 to jump to the next or previous mark The default keys are being mapped this way: :map tk <Plug>PrevMarkWok :map tj <Plug>NextMarkWok :nmap tt <Plug>ToggleMarkWok :nmap tm <Plug>SetMarkWok :map tD <Plug>KillMarksWok :nnoremap <silent> tl :marks abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz<CR> Credits must go to vimscript #66 2010 Mar 28
