Cut to end of line mapping doesn't work #1

Closed hemmer closed 11 years ago

hemmer commented 11 years ago

If I type :help M, the mapping should move any text up to the end of the line. However nothing happens on my system (blank .vimrc, only repeat-vim and vim easy-clip). Every other mapping appears to work fine (great plugin). Any ideas?

Cheers, Ewan

You can check plugin/move.vim file, the nmap M is commented, but why not use mm for EndOfLine and mmm for Line?

nmap m <Plug>MoveMotionPlug
nmap mm <Plug>MoveMotionEndOfLinePlug
nmap mM <Plug>MoveMotionReplaceLinePlug
nmap mmm <Plug>MoveMotionLinePlug
xmap m <Plug>MoveMotionXPlug

Ah ok great. I don't think I've ever used M before so I'm just added this to my vimrc:

nmap M <Plug>MoveMotionEndOfLinePlug

This behaviour matches my previous (D for delete rest of line etc) thought process most closely.

Happy to hear things are working! Yes, I originally had M mapped to cut to the end of line but left it commented out since it shadows M (go to middle of screen). I'm the same way though, I prefer using it for cut but wasn't sure if that was the case for other users.

I wouldn't recommend using mmm to cut line and mm to cut to end of line, since my guess is that that would cause a delay after hitting mm (while it waits to see if you press another m)

While you're here could you answer a quick question: how do I cut move three lines? Both 3mm, 3m and 3M don't seem to work!

svermeulen commented 11 years ago

You have found a bug :) I've uploaded a fix to allow 3mm to work (so try updating and see if that works) but still not sure how to allow things like 3mw, I'll look into that.

When you hit mm then most of time you will j/k/h/l, that will stop the delay, like people map jj/jk to .

That's true, though I think I would personally still prefer the instant feedback. Thanks for the pull request by the way! Just need to test it.
