This class is surely exist in Xcode, as it is the NSTextViewDelegate.

But when I want to hook its functions in XVim load. NSClassFromString(@"IDESourceCodeEditor") returns nil.
It's important to override the functions of this class... Any solutions?

By the way, I see the breakpoints in Xcode and launch another one, but seems like the break point doesn't work.

I can unfortunately not get the plugin to load with Xcode.

If I load the xcode project and run it it will however start a new xcode instance with the plugin loaded.

The plugin is in the specified folder.

Any ideas?

s should delete the character under the cursor and enter insert mode

; should repeat a character search made by f or F. Note that for F it should continue searching backwards.

When in line visual mode:

• v should switch to character mode
• V should go to normal mode

When in character visual mode:

• v should go to normal mode
• V should go to line visual mode

Ideally, in both visual modes, a cursor (like in normal mode) should still be displayed,

Hi there.
I should have send you an email instead of making a new issue :)

Well, I launched a xvim project a while ago. Feel free to go ahead and have a look...

What I'm thinking is that, we are almost doing the same thing, why not merging our projects into one instead of wasting time to achieve the same thing.

Tell me about your thoughts.

Regards..

Although :10 will go to line number 10, 10G does not.

Currently

    [self xvim].mode = MODE_INSERT;
    return [[XVimInsertEvaluator alloc] initWithRepeat:1]; 

It should automatically switch to other mode, when Evaluator is inited..
For example:
Creating a XVimInsertEvaluator will automatically switch to Insert Mode.
While creating XVimNormalEvaluator will switch to Normal Mode.

In Normal mode, if you press d$, you end up deleting the remaining line including the newline symbol.

Support keymapping.

Suppested commands: nmap, imap, vmap, omap

Preferably support multiple keys -> multiple keys, for instance:
nmap ,w :w

This is a recent regression. o and O used to behave properly, but now insert a newline midline. Likewise, p and P often paste into the middle of the previous/next line.

If you click past the end of a line, you can move the cursor to an invalid position. This causes crashes in much of the code where there are asserts to make sure the cursor is in a valid position.

? should search like / but backwards

When A is used, cursor goes to the end of the visible wrapped line instead of the end of the actual line of code. This probably somewhat related to #35.

When you open new view the first input to the view is not handled properly.

How to reproduce

1. Show new file by selecting a file not viewing currently from project navigator.
2. Click somewhere in the view and set a cursor at any position.
3. Press 'j'

The current result

Cursor does not move

The expected result

Cursor should move down one line down

Note

Not only 'j' but 'p' or any other key input seems not working.
When input 'j' I got following log

[XVimMotionEvaluator _motionFixedFrom:To:Type:] [Line 52] from:0 to:0 type:1

I did some easy debug but could not understand why this happens...

home key should go to beginning of line
end key should go to end of line
page up should be equivalent to ctrl-b
page down should be equivalent to ctrl-f

Low priority, but doing :99999 is very slow, even when there is only one line of text in the file.

Actually I had not expected developers other than me is joining the developing of this project.
(I just expected some requests or bug reports ).

Fortunately some developers are interested in developing this and already merged some codes.

The problem is fortunately I already got some amount of donation.
It should be opened and I should report how much of donations we got.

And here is my proposal.
I want to donate all of the donations to this project as donation for Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami in 2011 in Japan.

Since I'm new to open source project I do not know how they treat the donations but this is not bad idea I think.

Let me know if you have any opinion.

x should delete selected text in visual mode and add it to the default register

I will release next version of XVim in 1 or 2 weeks.
The release will be still alpha version and form of ZIP.

The new features are followings

• supporting a lot of navigations and more vim like motions
• supporting some configurations such as errorbells, ignorecase,wrapscan,
• supporting XVim original commands such as 'run', 'make'

The detail of new features are listed when released.

Acknowledgement

Most of the improvements are made by mike-hoegeman.
Thank you very much!

ciw, yiw and diw (and maybe others) are not implemented.

Enter visual mode and make selection using a repeat counter, e.g.: 10j. When you do j again, it keeps the repeat counter of 10 but shouldn't.

Since the code structure will change, and all those thing I want to port seems like a little bit to large. So I will try after the big refactoring.

Anyway, during the time. I think it's better not reinventing the wheel, since I've already write some vim-common functions like getting the caret position of $ and ^ or aw text object. And those functions are plain-C function which could be easily reused.

So I suggest that instead of doing it all again, just go grab the vim.h and vim.m in my project to speed up things.

as title

In normal mode ~ should change the case of the character under the cursor and move to the next character (moving to the next character allows you to do stuff like 5~ to change 5 chars to upper case)

In visual mode, ~ should change the case of the selected text and return to normal mode.

What we should use as a newline in Mac?
I found that [NSCharacterSet newlineCharacterSet] can be used to find newline...

I used it in XVimSearchLineEvaluator like

[source rangeOfCharacterFromSet:[NSCharacterSet newlineCharacterSet] options:NSBackwardsSearch range:NSMakeRange(0, original.location)]
Is this fine?

Selecting text with mouse should enter character visual mode

Currently I'm developing XVim with using it and I sometimes encounter sudden hung up of XCode. I do not know if this is because of XVim or a problem of XCode itself.

Anyone who also encounter the same problem report it to me please!

as title

I just forked and built. It turned out many methods are missing.
For example _XVimDrawInsertionPointInRect:color:

Am I missing something, or is it intensionally not implemented?

word movement "w" & "b" work properly now. but commands like dw & cw are deleting using the same span of characters which is not correct e.g. if the cursor is on the first slash on the line below and the "dw" is typed it deletes from the first slash through and including the '1' character. when moving by word that's what you want, but not for calculating a word span for dw, cw, etc..

// 1234 

for dw it should delete the slashes and the space but not the '1' character

gj should go to the next wrapped line. gk should go to the previous wrapped line.

There is a $100 open bounty on this issue. Add to the bounty at Bountysource.

I goes to beginning of wrapped line instead of code line

If you press I on an indented line, the cursor will appear at column 0 instead of after the indentation.

cc should delete the current line and go into insert mode.

Maybe off by one error or something.

This is an issue for milestone.
Separate search related functions form XVim.m file.
(We may need some property holder (NSDictionary?) to hold XVim wide variables)

And also separate ex-command process to another file.

If you have something like:

one
two

and your cursor is on the line with "one" and you press J, you'll get:

one two

This is expected, however when you press u, you get:

one
 two

(Note the space before the "two")

This project needs to debug XCode itself by XCode.
When invoke "Run" on this project it runs another XCode process and start debugging.
But unfortunately we can not get breakpoint work.
I have experienced that it worked.

My current understanding is its because of some lack of debug information for debugger
because when the debugee crashes with some reason the debugger outputs the call stack and
what I can see is there are no symbols for XVim method calls(only addresses are shown) while another methods are shown by name.

I do not know if we can fix this by configuring compiler or linker options or other build options.
It would be easy to debug if we can make breakpoints work properly.

This is an issue for next milestone.
Currently there are too many warning XCode pointing out.
Fix it as possible as we can.

:<line number> goes to the line number in the editor instead of the code line. If you have wrapped lines, these will differ. For example:

if you do :100 in a file with wrapped lines, that will differ from gg99j which I would expect would be the same line.

It would be nice to add the RegexKitLite regular expression package

http://regexkit.sourceforge.net/RegexKitLite/

to the Xvim build. it's seems small enough (a single a.h .m pair of files) and it would allow searching via regular expressions. If you add it to the project, i would be happy to fix up the command line search commands "/" & "?"
to use it. having regular expression capable search would be a nice addition i think and make the searching more vi like.

cf<character> doesn't enter insert mode. It stays in normal mode.

XVim crash on Xcode 4.3 when use gg in normal mode

In XVimInsertEvaluator's "eval:ofXVim"
when it handles it often crashes.
The crash happend on 2nd line of below.

         NSString *text = [xvim string];
        NSString *insertedText = [text substringWithRange:textRange];
        [self recordText:insertedText intoRegister:[xvim findRegister:@"repeat"]];
        [self recordText:insertedText intoRegister:xvim.recordingRegister];

The debugger says the argument 'textRange' is {1710,18446744073709551613}.
The big number means its length is "-3"
I think this happens when you move cursor to some other place in insert mode especially when it moves back from the begining of insertion.
I think if the cursor position had not move one way ( if some cursor movement is occured ), we can give up to save the inserted text.( This is vim's way)

Just to remember

Note sure if this requires text objects (#27), but * should search to the next match of the word under the cursor

right now it creeps one character forward for each 'n' you do after the initial search. it needs to start the next search after the the entire match from the previous search.

i have some ideas on how to do this. basically keep a _nextSearchBaseLocation (similar to _lastSearchString)
we probably also have to intercept (setSelectedRange) to also participate in maintaining _nextSearchBaseLocation by updating _nextSearchBaseLocation with r.location and then calling [super setSelectedRange r] search{forward/backward} would also update _nextSearchBaseLocation manually after it completed at search

% only works when cursor is directly on () where it should find the next match. For example, if you have a line of code as follows:

void test(NSString* string);

and you place your cursor on NSString, in Vim when you press % it will go to the (. In XVim it does nothing.
