hard wrap does not handle code blocks well in markdown #48

Closed laishulu closed 8 years ago

laishulu commented 8 years ago

when in hard wrap mode, I can't input exactly as the following:

this is a code block

Pencil will auto reposition this is a code block to the end of the first ```

A difficult problem to address, as when you enter Insert mode you're not yet in a blacklisted highlight group, which would disable autoformat.

As a workaround, I'd suggest manually disabling autoformat with a mapping per the README...

noremap <silent> <F7> :<C-u>PFormatToggle<cr>
inoremap <silent> <F7> <C-o>:PFormatToggle<cr>

It'd be nice to have an alternative way to enter Insert mode where autoformat would be automatically disabled. Keeping this open to explore that.

additionally, markdown lists get messed up by the auto linewrap stuff :/

There's at least one separate issue (#37, e.g.) for the lists. It's a separate problem because Vim's autoformat will handle them properly in certain configurations, but not in others.

The code block issue is a matter of having a good mechanism of disabling Vim's autoformat for the duration of the Insert.

New optional buffer-scoped modifier key mapping will ideally offer the additional control desired to suspend autoformat for the Insert.
