i or d? #6

Closed nedbat closed 8 years ago

nedbat commented 8 years ago

The old mappings used i and I. Now they are d and D, but the docs, both in the README and the doc file, mention i and I. Which is it going to be? Also, why change from i to d?

qstrahl commented 8 years ago

Whoops! It's meant to be d now. I thought it was a better mnemonic, given that I'm running with the term denture. I had been sort of interchanging the terms denture and indenture, and I wanted to avoid splintering my terminology.

FWIW, I liked 'i' for 'indent' which is really what it's about. Also, the downside of automatic vim plugin managers is that there's no way to notice that something like this changed... :(

qstrahl commented 8 years ago

Very good points. Do note that I've tried to make it very easy for users to configure their own mappings, for precisely this reason.

It's important to have a sensible default. FWIW, as a person who literally just found this plugin, I also think i makes more sense than d.

I want to argue that "d for denture" is more intuitive but that seems stupid when I have two users telling me they find "i for indent" more intuitive. I'll change it back to "i".
