Note that development happens on Github https://github.com/joereynolds/place.vim/ # place.vim place.vim allows you to add insertions to your text without moving your cursor. If you suffer from the following problems, this plugin might be for you: - Forgotten to add a ';' at the end of a line. - Forgotten var, let, $ or any other variant at the beginning of a line. - Wanted to insert some text without having to enter insert mode, move to the place, leave insert mode, and go back  ## Mapping Add a mapping of your choice to get place.vim working for you. Example: ``` nmap ga <Plug>(place-insert) ``` ## Examples (Examples are using `ga` as the prefix key but it can be anything you want) place.vim works in the 'vim' way. Here are a few examples of what it does `|` denotes cursor position ### #1 ``` function(na|me, $age) gab$ ``` Results in ``` function($name, $age) ``` ### #2 ``` $thi|s->doSomeStuff = 5 ga$; ``` Results in ``` $this->doSomeStuff = 5; ``` ### #3 It also supports multiple line motions ``` This is a really long line gaG. ``` Results in ``` This is a really long line. ``` ### #4 A more complex motion (t) ``` T|his is Y sentence gatYM ``` Results in ``` This is MY sentence ``` ## FAQ > I want to enter 'var' or 'let' like you said I could in the README! Sure thing, there's a separate mapping `<Plug>(place-insert-multiple)` to map to. Read the docs. Either that or you can enable it globally: `let g:place_single_character_mode = 0` Now, when you finish your motion, an input box will appear with what you want to insert. This is turned off by default because I imagine the majority of people want to insert small things like $ or ;.
