This package contains extra functions for easy-kill/easy-mark.
Here is a list of the interactive commands provided by easy-kill-extras:
easy-mark-word
easy-mark-sexp
easy-mark-to-char
easy-mark-up-to-char
These are shorthand commands for easy-marking an aimed string at point.
easy-kill-er-expand
easy-kill-er-unexpand
These work like er/expand-region and er/contract-region,
respectively, integrating the functionality of the expand-region
package into easy-kill.
The easy-kill-extras package does not list the expand-region package as its dependency because it is optional, so you need to install it separately if you want to use these commands.
It also provides the following easy-kill/easy-mark targets:
buffer
This selects the whole buffer.
buffer-before-point
buffer-after-point
These work like vi's gg/G commands, respectively.
backward-line-edge
forward-line-edge
The former is like vi's ^/0 commands, and the latter is just
like that in the opposite direction.
string-to-char-forward
string-to-char-backward
string-up-to-char-forward
string-up-to-char-backward
These work like vi's f/F/t/T commands, respectively.
This package includes extra-things.el which defines various extra "things" that can be used with easy-kill/easy-mark.

(add-to-list 'easy-kill-alist '(?< angles-pair "\n") t)WORD: a sequence of non-whitespace characters
This is much like Vim's WORD object.
squoted-string: a sindle-quoted string ('...')
dquoted-string: a double-quoted string ("...")
bquoted-string: a back-quoted string (...)
quoted-string: any of the above quoted strings
The backslash character serves as escape character. For performance reasons, it is assumed that the beginning of the current line is not inside of a quoted string. In other words, multi-line quoted strings are not fully supported.
These things are aware of the current syntax table, and the
quotation marks that are a word constituent or an expression prefix
in the current mode are ignored. For example, squoted-string
would only work in some specific programming language modes where
the single quotation mark is a quotation character.
squoted-string-universal
dquoted-string-universal
bquoted-string-universal
quoted-string-universal
These versions recognize all quotation pairs ignoring the current syntax table and support nesting of different quotations.
parentheses-pair: the block between a parentheses pair including the opening and closing parentheses
brackets-pair: the block between a brackets pair including the opening and closing brackets
curlies-pair: the block between a curlies pair including the opening and closing curlies
angles-pair: the block between an angles pair including the opening and closing angles
parentheses-pair-content: the content inside of a parentheses pair without whitespace at both ends
brackets-pair-content: the content inside of a brackets pair without whitespace at both ends
curlies-pair-content: the content inside of a curlies pair without whitespace at both ends
angles-pair-content: the content inside of an angles pair without whitespace at both ends
Quotation marks or different types of pair characters are not taken into account. Each type of things only cares about the nest level of their pair characters.
Repeatedly moving forward or backward means to move to outer pairs.
Experimental ace-jump integration into easy-kill is enabled by
default. ace-jump-*-mode can be invoked for selection when in
easy-kill/easy-mark mode. You can disable this feature via a
customize variable easy-kill-ace-jump-enable-p.
Experimental multiple-cursors-mode support for easy-kill is enabled by
default. easy-kill and easy-mark will mostly work in
multiple-cursors-mode.
