Quotes Text Object

[fredysan]

Based on https://github.com/beloglazov/vim-textobj-quotes

The goal is to just need to press cq, dq, yq, or vq to operate on the text in single ('), double ("), or back (`) quotes.

It would be great to see this featured implemented and I can help with code if you point me out to some examples of how text objects are currently implemented.

As a workaround I mapped q to single quotes and Q to double quotes

omap q i'
xmap q i'
omap Q i"
xmap Q i"

Since the MoveQuoteMatch function inside the motions.js file only search for a singular char to match quotes, I added extra code to search for optional characters when the initial quote character is not found.

    let quoteMatcher = new QuoteMatcher(this.charToMatch, text);
    let start = quoteMatcher.findOpening(position.character);
    let end = quoteMatcher.findClosing(start + 1);

    if (start === -1 || end === -1 || end === start || end < position.character) {
      quoteMatcher = new QuoteMatcher('"', text);
      start = quoteMatcher.findOpening(position.character);
      end = quoteMatcher.findClosing(start + 1);
    }

    if (start === -1 || end === -1 || end === start || end < position.character) {
      quoteMatcher = new QuoteMatcher('`', text);
      start = quoteMatcher.findOpening(position.character);
      end = quoteMatcher.findClosing(start + 1);
    }

@fredysan it seems this was implemented for vim.targets now via the smartQuotes setting. The q motion works with " " | ` ` | ' ' quotes using those settings:

  "vim.targets.enable": true,
  "vim.targets.smartQuotes.enable": true,
