Text Objects Don't Work

[asivitz]

The plugin is loading, but then the text objects don't seem to work. If I understand correctly, I should be able to put my cursor inside of

(an sexp)

and type

daf

and it will delete it? Other bindings don't seem to really work either. Matched parentheses are inserted though during insert mode.

Yes, that's correct. Could you please execute the following command:

vim -c 'redir! > /tmp/debug.vim' -c 'sil! version' -c 'sil! scriptnames' -c 'sil! let g:sexp_mappings' -c 'sil! map <buffer>' -c 'sil! map! <buffer>' -c 'q' SEXP-FILE

Then paste the contents of /tmp/debug.vim?

SEXP-FILE is the Lisp buffer you are trying to edit.

Thank you for the report!

Hey, thanks for the fast response.

/tmp/debug.vim

Oh, I forgot one thing: what kind of filetype is the buffer you are editing?

[asivitz]

It's a .scm file. Filetype shows unix/SCHEME. Maybe it's not being detected early enough in the loading process?

[asivitz]

Oops, to clarify--

:set ft --> filetype=scheme

[guns]

I can duplicate the problem now on an old iMac; I'll build a few versions of vim (old versions, and with different feature levels) to narrow down the problem.

Thank you for alerting me to this problem. If you're curious to try out vim-sexp tonight, it definitely works on newer versions of vim with FEATURES=huge.

[asivitz]

Thanks so much. I'm happy to upgrade my vim installation.

Update:

Patch 7.3.590 introduced the ability to directly set visual marks, which this plugin uses to a great extent.

At first I thought I would just bump the requirements to 7.3.590+, but this excludes almost everyone who doesn't use a rolling release operating system or compiles Vim from source.

Consequently I am adding a fallback to classic visual mark setting behavior, which has the nasty limitation that visual mode must actually be entered and exited to set the '< and '> marks.

[guns]

I believe this commit solves the issue. I would appreciate your feedback with your local setup!

[asivitz]

Hey, yes, it works now with Apple's default vim installation. Thanks!
