`o` in visual mode

[michaelficarra]

This is one of those features that you're really glad exists when you need it. I haven't seen any other editor with a similar feature either, which is a shame.

[misfo]

Agreed. I'll throw this in after I get out of the refactor hell that the dot command has put me in

[misfo]

O seems to do the same thing in visual mode. So I'll map that as well

[michaelficarra]

It's always best to go by the spec than just what we observe:

                                                        *v_o* 
o                       Go to Other end of highlighted text: The current 
                        cursor position becomes the start of the highlighted 
                        text and the cursor is moved to the other end of the 
                        highlighted text.  The highlighted area remains the 
                        same.                           

                                                        *v_O* 
O                       Go to Other end of highlighted text.  This is like 
                        "o", but in Visual block mode the cursor moves to the 
                        other corner in the same line.  When the corner is at 
                        a character that occupies more than one position on 
                        the screen (e.g., a ), the highlighted text may 
                        change.

And since we don't have visual block mode (hmm...), they're identical.

[misfo]

Yeah, without visual block mode they could both map to the same command. That is interesting that there's a distinction in Vim, though. I did not know that. Vim's thorough documentation is a godsend for a project like this

[michaelficarra]

Agreed, vim's documentation is some of the most thorough around.
