Cursors stop moving

[halbtuerke]

Hi,

I just installed evil-mc and it's not working as expected. When I move the cursor the other cursors don't follow (see GIF animation). Anything I have to configure to make this work?

I'm using GNU Emacs 25.0.50.1 2015-08-15 on OS X.

Here's the debug log:

evil-mc Created 3 cursors matching "\_<some\_>"

[gabesoft]

Are you using evil-local-mode, if so this could be the same problem as #5. I think it's fixed in the latest version (not on melpa yet).

[halbtuerke]

No, I'm activating evil-mode via (evil-mode t) in my config, so it should not be using evil-local-mode.

[gabesoft]

I see. It could still be related though. I think it's some loading issue. I'm still working on it. But, just to get going if you do a C-h f evil-mc-execute-for and then in open the file that you see in the doc evil-mc-command-execute.el and eval it, then the cursors should start working.

[halbtuerke]

Yes, this makes all the cursors move.

What does not seem to work is highlighting and then deleting something with d. Also highlighting and changing with c does not seem to work. dw and cw also do not work. Is this expected behavior?

[gabesoft]

No, there's definitely something wrong. I'm not sure what yet. It's quite strange because the tests pass. I still think it's some loading issue but I have to investigate more.

[gabesoft]

I think this is fixed on master. At least it was working fine for me in a sandbox. But melpa hasn't been updated for a while so you should try the github version if possible. .

[gabesoft]

This is still not fixed. The cursors work fine when loading the files directly, but not when using the compiled version from melpa.

[halbtuerke]

I'm using the following code snippet to load and configure evil-mc and the cursor movement works:

(use-package evil-mc
    :load-path "~/.emacs.d/non-elpa/evil-mc"
    :config
    (global-evil-mc-mode 1))

What still does not work e.g. is using d or something likedw.

The use-package macro expands to the following:

(progn
    (eval-and-compile
      (push "~/.emacs.d/non-elpa/evil-mc" load-path))
    (if
        (not
         (require 'evil-mc nil 'noerror))
        (ignore
         (message
          (format "Could not load %s" 'evil-mc)))
      (condition-case-unless-debug err
          (global-evil-mc-mode 1)
        (error
         (ignore
          (display-warning 'use-package
                           (format "%s %s: %s" "evil-mc" ":config"
                                   (error-message-string err))
                           :error))))
      t))

[gabesoft]

Ok, so if you load it that way it should work. That's how I load it. It's strange that delete doesn't work. Do you get any errors at all?

[halbtuerke]

No, there aren't any errors. Here's a log:

evil-mc Command evil-cp-delete d [2 times]

I have 3 cursors but after pressing d only the selection of the "main" cursor gets deleted.

[gabesoft]

I think it's because when pressing d it's trying to run evil-cp-delete which I think it's coming from evil-cleverparens. Try disabling that mode temporarily just to see if that fixes it.

[halbtuerke]

:+1:

That's it. Disabling evil-cleverparens solved the issue.

[gabesoft]

OK, I'll probably add evil-cleverparens to the incompatible modes so that it gets disabled automatically whenever there are active cursors.

[bmag]

@gabesoft I'd like to use evil-cleverparens together with evil-mc. What will it take to make them work together, and how can I help? Basically evil-cleverparens replaces some evil commands with evil-cp commands, e.g. evil-cp-delete replaces evil-delete, so would using for evil-cp the same handler for the equivalent original evil command be enough? (e.g. using evil-mc-execute-default-evil-delete handler for evil-cp-delete)

[gabesoft]

Yes I think adding all relevant evil-cp commands to evil-mc-known-commands should be enough to make evil-cleverparens compatible with evil-mc. The handlers used for the default evil commands should work in theory.

[bmag]

Looks like it works in practice too :smile: at least for casual use, I haven't done comprehensive testing. I've started the work at #14 and will continue when I have some more free time. Meanwhile I've encountered #13 too.
