| 9 These commands move the cursor position. If the new position is off of the | |
| 10 screen, the screen is scrolled to show the cursor (see also 'scrolljump' and | |
| 11 'scrolloff' options). | |

| 23 General remarks: | |
| 24 | |
| 25 If you want to know where you are in the file use the "CTRL-G" command | |
| 26 |CTRL-G| or the "g CTRL-G" command |g_CTRL-G|. If you set the 'ruler' option, | |
| 27 the cursor position is continuously shown in the status line (which slows down | |
| 28 Vim a little). | |
| 29 | |
| 30 Experienced users prefer the hjkl keys because they are always right under | |
| 31 their fingers. Beginners often prefer the arrow keys, because they do not | |
| 32 know what the hjkl keys do. The mnemonic value of hjkl is clear from looking | |
| 33 at the keyboard. Think of j as an arrow pointing downwards. | |
| 34 | |
| 35 The 'virtualedit' option can be set to make it possible to move the cursor to | |
| 36 positions where there is no character or halfway a character. | |
| 37 | |
| 38 ============================================================================== | |
| 39 1. Motions and operators *operator* | |
| 40 | |
| 41 The motion commands can be used after an operator command, to have the command | |
| 42 operate on the text that was moved over. That is the text between the cursor | |
| 43 position before and after the motion. Operators are generally used to delete | |
| 44 or change text. The following operators are available: | |
| 45 | |
| 46 |c| c change | |
| 47 |d| d delete | |
| 48 |y| y yank into register (does not change the text) | |
| 49 |~| ~ swap case (only if 'tildeop' is set) | |
| 50 |g~| g~ swap case | |
| 51 |gu| gu make lowercase | |
| 52 |gU| gU make uppercase | |
| 53 |!| ! filter through an external program | |
| 54 |=| = filter through 'equalprg' or C-indenting if empty | |
| 55 |gq| gq text formatting | |
| 56 |g?| g? ROT13 encoding | |
| 57 |>| > shift right | |
| 58 |<| < shift left | |
| 59 |zf| zf define a fold | |
| 60 |g@| g@ call function set with the 'operatorfunc' option | |
| 61 | |
| 62 If the motion includes a count and the operator also had a count before it, | |
| 63 the two counts are multiplied. For example: "2d3w" deletes six words. | |
| 64 | |
| 65 After applying the operator the cursor is mostly left at the start of the text | |
| 66 that was operated upon. For example, "yfe" doesn't move the cursor, but "yFe" | |
| 67 moves the cursor leftwards to the "e" where the yank started. | |
| 68 | |
| 69 *linewise* *characterwise* | |
| 70 The operator either affects whole lines, or the characters between the start | |
| 71 and end position. Generally, motions that move between lines affect lines | |
| 72 (are linewise), and motions that move within a line affect characters (are | |
| 73 characterwise). However, there are some exceptions. | |
| 74 | |
| 75 *exclusive* *inclusive* | |
| 76 A character motion is either inclusive or exclusive. When inclusive, the | |
| 77 start and end position of the motion are included in the operation. When | |
| 78 exclusive, the last character towards the end of the buffer is not included. | |
| 79 Linewise motions always include the start and end position. | |
| 80 | |
| 81 Which motions are linewise, inclusive or exclusive is mentioned with the | |
| 82 command. There are however, two general exceptions: | |
| 83 1. If the motion is exclusive and the end of the motion is in column 1, the | |
| 84 end of the motion is moved to the end of the previous line and the motion | |
| 85 becomes inclusive. Example: "}" moves to the first line after a paragraph, | |
| 86 but "d}" will not include that line. | |
| 87 *exclusive-linewise* | |
| 88 2. If the motion is exclusive, the end of the motion is in column 1 and the | |
| 89 start of the motion was at or before the first non-blank in the line, the | |
| 90 motion becomes linewise. Example: If a paragraph begins with some blanks | |
| 91 and you do "d}" while standing on the first non-blank, all the lines of | |
| 92 the paragraph are deleted, including the blanks. If you do a put now, the | |
| 93 deleted lines will be inserted below the cursor position. | |
| 94 | |
| 95 Note that when the operator is pending (the operator command is typed, but the | |
| 96 motion isn't yet), a special set of mappings can be used. See |:omap|. | |
| 97 | |
| 98 Instead of first giving the operator and then a motion you can use Visual | |
| 99 mode: mark the start of the text with "v", move the cursor to the end of the | |
| 100 text that is to be affected and then hit the operator. The text between the | |
| 101 start and the cursor position is highlighted, so you can see what text will | |
| 102 be operated upon. This allows much more freedom, but requires more key | |
| 103 strokes and has limited redo functionality. See the chapter on Visual mode | |
| 104 |Visual-mode|. | |
| 105 | |
| 106 You can use a ":" command for a motion. For example "d:call FindEnd()". | |
| 107 But this can't be redone with "." if the command is more than one line. | |
| 108 This can be repeated: > | |
| 109 d:call search("f")<CR> | |
| 110 This cannot be repeated: > | |
| 111 d:if 1<CR> | |
| 112 call search("f")<CR> | |
| 113 endif<CR> | |
| 114 | |
| 115 | |
| 116 FORCING A MOTION TO BE LINEWISE, CHARACTERWISE OR BLOCKWISE | |
| 117 | |
| 118 When a motion is not of the type you would like to use, you can force another | |
| 119 type by using "v", "V" or CTRL-V just after the operator. | |
| 120 Example: > | |
| 121 dj | |
| 122 deletes two lines > | |
| 123 dvj | |
| 124 deletes from the cursor position until the character below the cursor > | |
| 125 d<C-V>j | |
| 126 deletes the character under the cursor and the character below the cursor. > | |
| 127 | |
| 128 Be careful with forcing a linewise movement to be used characterwise or | |
| 129 blockwise, the column may not always be defined. | |
| 130 | |
| 131 *o_v* | |
| 132 v When used after an operator, before the motion command: Force | |
| 133 the operator to work characterwise, also when the motion is | |
| 134 linewise. If the motion was linewise, it will become | |
| 135 |exclusive|. | |
| 136 If the motion already was characterwise, toggle | |
| 137 inclusive/exclusive. This can be used to make an exclusive | |
| 138 motion inclusive and an inclusive motion exclusive. | |
| 139 | |
| 140 *o_V* | |
| 141 V When used after an operator, before the motion command: Force | |
| 142 the operator to work linewise, also when the motion is | |
| 143 characterwise. | |
| 144 | |
| 145 *o_CTRL-V* | |
| 146 CTRL-V When used after an operator, before the motion command: Force | |
| 147 the operator to work blockwise. This works like Visual block | |
| 148 mode selection, with the corners defined by the cursor | |
| 149 position before and after the motion. | |
| 150 | |
| 151 ============================================================================== | |
| 152 2. Left-right motions *left-right-motions* | |
| 153 | |
| 154 h or *h* | |
| 155 <Left> or *<Left>* | |
| 156 CTRL-H or *CTRL-H* *<BS>* | |
| 157 <BS> [count] characters to the left. |exclusive| motion. | |
| 158 Note: If you prefer <BS> to delete a character, use | |
| 159 the mapping: | |
| 160 :map CTRL-V<BS> X | |
| 161 (to enter "CTRL-V<BS>" type the CTRL-V key, followed | |
| 162 by the <BS> key) | |
| 163 See |:fixdel| if the <BS> key does not do what you | |
| 164 want. | |
| 165 | |
| 166 l or *l* | |
| 167 <Right> or *<Right>* *<Space>* | |
| 168 <Space> [count] characters to the right. |exclusive| motion. | |
| 169 | |
| 170 *0* | |
| 171 0 To the first character of the line. |exclusive| | |
| 172 motion. | |
| 173 | |
| 174 *<Home>* *<kHome>* | |
| 175 <Home> To the first character of the line. |exclusive| | |
| 176 motion. When moving up or down next, stay in same | |
| 177 TEXT column (if possible). Most other commands stay | |
| 178 in the same SCREEN column. <Home> works like "1|", | |
| 179 which differs from "0" when the line starts with a | |
| 180 <Tab>. {not in Vi} | |
| 181 | |
| 182 *^* | |
| 183 ^ To the first non-blank character of the line. | |
| 184 |exclusive| motion. | |
| 185 | |
| 186 *$* *<End>* *<kEnd>* | |
| 187 $ or <End> To the end of the line. When a count is given also go | |
| 188 [count - 1] lines downward |inclusive|. | |
| 189 In Visual mode the cursor goes to just after the last | |
| 190 character in the line. | |
| 191 When 'virtualedit' is active, "$" may move the cursor | |
| 192 back from past the end of the line to the last | |
| 193 character in the line. | |
| 194 | |
| 195 *g_* | |
| 196 g_ To the last non-blank character of the line and | |
| 197 [count - 1] lines downward |inclusive|. {not in Vi} | |
| 198 | |
| 199 *g0* *g<Home>* | |
| 200 g0 or g<Home> When lines wrap ('wrap' on): To the first character of | |
| 201 the screen line. |exclusive| motion. Differs from | |
| 202 "0" when a line is wider than the screen. | |
| 203 When lines don't wrap ('wrap' off): To the leftmost | |
| 204 character of the current line that is on the screen. | |
| 205 Differs from "0" when the first character of the line | |
| 206 is not on the screen. {not in Vi} | |
| 207 | |
| 208 *g^* | |
| 209 g^ When lines wrap ('wrap' on): To the first non-blank | |
| 210 character of the screen line. |exclusive| motion. | |
| 211 Differs from "^" when a line is wider than the screen. | |
| 212 When lines don't wrap ('wrap' off): To the leftmost | |
| 213 non-blank character of the current line that is on the | |
| 214 screen. Differs from "^" when the first non-blank | |
| 215 character of the line is not on the screen. {not in | |
| 216 Vi} | |
| 217 | |
| 218 *gm* | |
| 219 gm Like "g0", but half a screenwidth to the right (or as | |
| 220 much as possible). {not in Vi} | |
| 221 | |
| 222 *g$* *g<End>* | |
| 223 g$ or g<End> When lines wrap ('wrap' on): To the last character of | |
| 224 the screen line and [count - 1] screen lines downward | |
| 225 |inclusive|. Differs from "$" when a line is wider | |
| 226 than the screen. | |
| 227 When lines don't wrap ('wrap' off): To the rightmost | |
| 228 character of the current line that is visible on the | |
| 229 screen. Differs from "$" when the last character of | |
| 230 the line is not on the screen or when a count is used. | |
| 231 Additionally, vertical movements keep the column, | |
| 232 instead of going to the end of the line. | |
| 233 {not in Vi} | |
| 234 | |
| 235 *bar* | |
| 236 | To screen column [count] in the current line. | |
| 237 |exclusive| motion. | |
| 238 | |
| 239 *f* | |
| 240 f{char} To [count]'th occurrence of {char} to the right. The | |
| 241 cursor is placed on {char} |inclusive|. | |
| 242 {char} can be entered as a digraph |digraph-arg|. | |
| 243 When 'encoding' is set to Unicode, composing | |
| 244 characters may be used, see |utf-8-char-arg|. | |
| 245 |:lmap| mappings apply to {char}. The CTRL-^ command | |
| 246 in Insert mode can be used to switch this on/off | |
| 247 |i_CTRL-^|. | |
| 248 | |
| 249 *F* | |
| 250 F{char} To the [count]'th occurrence of {char} to the left. | |
| 251 The cursor is placed on {char} |exclusive|. | |
| 252 {char} can be entered like with the |f| command. | |
| 253 | |
| 254 *t* | |
| 255 t{char} Till before [count]'th occurrence of {char} to the | |
| 256 right. The cursor is placed on the character left of | |
| 257 {char} |inclusive|. | |
| 258 {char} can be entered like with the |f| command. | |
| 259 | |
| 260 *T* | |
| 261 T{char} Till after [count]'th occurrence of {char} to the | |
| 262 left. The cursor is placed on the character right of | |
| 263 {char} |exclusive|. | |
| 264 {char} can be entered like with the |f| command. | |
| 265 | |
| 266 *;* | |
| 267 ; Repeat latest f, t, F or T [count] times. | |
| 268 | |
| 269 *,* | |
| 270 , Repeat latest f, t, F or T in opposite direction | |
| 271 [count] times. | |
| 272 | |
| 273 These commands move the cursor to the specified column in the current line. | |
| 274 They stop at the first column and at the end of the line, except "$", which | |
| 275 may move to one of the next lines. See 'whichwrap' option to make some of the | |
| 276 commands move across line boundaries. | |
| 277 | |
| 278 ============================================================================== | |
| 279 3. Up-down motions *up-down-motions* | |
| 280 | |
| 281 k or *k* | |
| 282 <Up> or *<Up>* *CTRL-P* | |
| 283 CTRL-P [count] lines upward |linewise|. | |
| 284 | |
| 285 j or *j* | |
| 286 <Down> or *<Down>* | |
| 287 CTRL-J or *CTRL-J* | |
| 288 <NL> or *<NL>* *CTRL-N* | |
| 289 CTRL-N [count] lines downward |linewise|. | |
| 290 | |
| 291 gk or *gk* *g<Up>* | |
| 292 g<Up> [count] display lines upward. |exclusive| motion. | |
| 293 Differs from 'k' when lines wrap, and when used with | |
| 294 an operator, because it's not linewise. {not in Vi} | |
| 295 | |
| 296 gj or *gj* *g<Down>* | |
| 297 g<Down> [count] display lines downward. |exclusive| motion. | |
| 298 Differs from 'j' when lines wrap, and when used with | |
| 299 an operator, because it's not linewise. {not in Vi} | |
| 300 | |
| 301 *-* | |
| 302 - <minus> [count] lines upward, on the first non-blank | |
| 303 character |linewise|. | |
| 304 | |
| 305 + or *+* | |
| 306 CTRL-M or *CTRL-M* *<CR>* | |
| 307 <CR> [count] lines downward, on the first non-blank | |
| 308 character |linewise|. | |
| 309 | |
| 310 *_* | |
| 311 _ <underscore> [count] - 1 lines downward, on the first non-blank | |
| 312 character |linewise|. | |
| 313 | |
| 314 *G* | |
| 315 G Goto line [count], default last line, on the first | |
| 316 non-blank character |linewise|. If 'startofline' not | |
| 317 set, keep the same column. | |
| 318 | |
| 319 *<C-End>* | |
| 320 <C-End> Goto line [count], default last line, on the last | |
| 321 character |inclusive|. {not in Vi} | |
| 322 | |
| 323 <C-Home> or *gg* *<C-Home>* | |
| 324 gg Goto line [count], default first line, on the first | |
| 325 non-blank character |linewise|. If 'startofline' not | |
| 326 set, keep the same column. | |
| 327 | |
| 328 :[range] Set the cursor on the specified line number. If | |
| 329 there are several numbers, the last one is used. | |
| 330 | |
| 331 *N%* | |
| 332 {count}% Go to {count} percentage in the file, on the first | |
| 333 non-blank in the line |linewise|. To compute the new | |
| 334 line number this formula is used: | |
| 335 ({count} * number-of-lines + 99) / 100 | |
| 336 See also 'startofline' option. {not in Vi} | |
| 337 | |
| 338 :[range]go[to] [count] *:go* *:goto* *go* | |
| 339 [count]go Go to {count} byte in the buffer. Default [count] is | |
| 340 one, start of the file. When giving [range], the | |
| 341 last number in it used as the byte count. End-of-line | |
| 342 characters are counted depending on the current | |
| 343 'fileformat' setting. | |
| 344 {not in Vi} | |
| 345 {not available when compiled without the | |
| 346 |+byte_offset| feature} | |
| 347 | |
| 348 These commands move to the specified line. They stop when reaching the first | |
| 349 or the last line. The first two commands put the cursor in the same column | |
| 350 (if possible) as it was after the last command that changed the column, | |
| 351 except after the "$" command, then the cursor will be put on the last | |
| 352 character of the line. | |
| 353 | |
| 354 If "k", "-" or CTRL-P is used with a [count] and there are less than [count] | |
| 355 lines above the cursor and the 'cpo' option includes the "-" flag it is an | |
| 356 error. |cpo--|. | |
| 357 | |

373 Does not stop in an empty line. |
| 0 | 374 |
| 375 <S-Left> or *<S-Left>* *b* | |
| 376 b [count] words backward. |exclusive| motion. | |
| 377 | |

| 379 B [count] WORDS backward. |exclusive| motion. | |

| 382 ge Backward to the end of word [count] |inclusive|. | |
| 383 | |
| 384 *gE* | |
| 385 gE Backward to the end of WORD [count] |inclusive|. | |
| 386 | |
| 387 These commands move over words or WORDS. | |
| 388 *word* | |
| 389 A word consists of a sequence of letters, digits and underscores, or a | |
| 390 sequence of other non-blank characters, separated with white space (spaces, | |
| 391 tabs, <EOL>). This can be changed with the 'iskeyword' option. An empty line | |
| 392 is also considered to be a word. | |
| 393 *WORD* | |
| 394 A WORD consists of a sequence of non-blank characters, separated with white | |
| 395 space. An empty line is also considered to be a WORD. | |
| 396 | |
| 397 A sequence of folded lines is counted for one word of a single character. | |
| 398 "w" and "W", "e" and "E" move to the start/end of the first word or WORD after | |
| 399 a range of folded lines. "b" and "B" move to the start of the first word or | |
| 400 WORD before the fold. | |
| 401 | |
| 402 Special case: "cw" and "cW" are treated like "ce" and "cE" if the cursor is | |
| 403 on a non-blank. This is because "cw" is interpreted as change-word, and a | |
| 404 word does not include the following white space. {Vi: "cw" when on a blank | |
| 405 followed by other blanks changes only the first blank; this is probably a | |
| 406 bug, because "dw" deletes all the blanks} | |
| 407 | |
| 408 Another special case: When using the "w" motion in combination with an | |
| 409 operator and the last word moved over is at the end of a line, the end of | |
| 410 that word becomes the end of the operated text, not the first word in the | |
| 411 next line. | |
| 412 | |
| 413 The original Vi implementation of "e" is buggy. For example, the "e" command | |
| 414 will stop on the first character of a line if the previous line was empty. | |
| 415 But when you use "2e" this does not happen. In Vim "ee" and "2e" are the | |
| 416 same, which is more logical. However, this causes a small incompatibility | |
| 417 between Vi and Vim. | |
| 418 | |

| 437 stops below a '}' in the first column. |exclusive| | |
| 438 Note that |exclusive-linewise| often applies. | |
| 439 | |
| 440 *][* | |
| 441 ][ [count] sections forward or to the next '}' in the | |
| 442 first column. |exclusive| | |
| 443 Note that |exclusive-linewise| often applies. | |
| 444 | |
| 445 *[[* | |
| 446 [[ [count] sections backward or to the previous '{' in | |
| 447 the first column. |exclusive| | |
| 448 Note that |exclusive-linewise| often applies. | |
| 449 | |
| 450 *[]* | |
| 451 [] [count] sections backward or to the previous '}' in | |
| 452 the first column. |exclusive| | |
| 453 Note that |exclusive-linewise| often applies. | |
| 454 | |
| 455 These commands move over three kinds of text objects. | |
| 456 | |
| 457 *sentence* | |
| 458 A sentence is defined as ending at a '.', '!' or '?' followed by either the | |
| 459 end of a line, or by a space or tab. Any number of closing ')', ']', '"' | |
| 460 and ''' characters may appear after the '.', '!' or '?' before the spaces, | |
| 461 tabs or end of line. A paragraph and section boundary is also a sentence | |
| 462 boundary. | |
| 463 If the 'J' flag is present in 'cpoptions', at least two spaces have to | |
| 464 follow the punctuation mark; <Tab>s are not recognized as white space. | |
| 465 The definition of a sentence cannot be changed. | |
| 466 | |
| 467 *paragraph* | |
| 468 A paragraph begins after each empty line, and also at each of a set of | |
| 469 paragraph macros, specified by the pairs of characters in the 'paragraphs' | |

472 the first column). A section boundary is also a paragraph boundary. |
| 0 | 473 Note that a blank line (only containing white space) is NOT a paragraph |
| 474 boundary. | |
| 475 Also note that this does not include a '{' or '}' in the first column. When | |
| 476 the '{' flag is in 'cpoptions' then '{' in the first column is used as a | |
| 477 paragraph boundary |posix|. | |
| 478 | |
| 479 *section* | |
| 480 A section begins after a form-feed (<C-L>) in the first column and at each of | |
| 481 a set of section macros, specified by the pairs of characters in the | |
| 482 'sections' option. The default is "SHNHH HUnhsh", which defines a section to | |
| 483 start at the nroff macros ".SH", ".NH", ".H", ".HU", ".nh" and ".sh". | |
| 484 | |
| 485 The "]" and "[" commands stop at the '{' or '}' in the first column. This is | |
| 486 useful to find the start or end of a function in a C program. Note that the | |
| 487 first character of the command determines the search direction and the | |
| 488 second character the type of brace found. | |
| 489 | |
| 490 If your '{' or '}' are not in the first column, and you would like to use "[[" | |
| 491 and "]]" anyway, try these mappings: > | |
| 492 :map [[ ?{<CR>w99[{ | |
| 493 :map ][ /}<CR>b99]} | |
| 494 :map ]] j0[[%/{<CR> | |
| 495 :map [] k$][%?}<CR> | |

| 499 6. Text object selection *object-select* *text-objects* | |
| 500 *v_a* *v_i* | |
| 501 | |
| 502 This is a series of commands that can only be used while in Visual mode or | |
| 503 after an operator. The commands that start with "a" select "a"n object | |
| 504 including white space, the commands starting with "i" select an "inner" object | |
| 505 without white space, or just the white space. Thus the "inner" commands | |
| 506 always select less text than the "a" commands. | |
| 507 | |
| 508 These commands are {not in Vi}. | |
| 509 These commands are not available when the |+textobjects| feature has been | |
| 510 disabled at compile time. | |
| 511 *v_aw* *aw* | |
| 512 aw "a word", select [count] words (see |word|). | |
| 513 Leading or trailing white space is included, but not | |
| 514 counted. | |
| 515 When used in Visual linewise mode "aw" switches to | |
| 516 Visual characterwise mode. | |
| 517 | |
| 518 *v_iw* *iw* | |
| 519 iw "inner word", select [count] words (see |word|). | |
| 520 White space between words is counted too. | |
| 521 When used in Visual linewise mode "iw" switches to | |
| 522 Visual characterwise mode. | |
| 523 | |
| 524 *v_aW* *aW* | |
| 525 aW "a WORD", select [count] WORDs (see |WORD|). | |
| 526 Leading or trailing white space is included, but not | |
| 527 counted. | |
| 528 When used in Visual linewise mode "aW" switches to | |
| 529 Visual characterwise mode. | |
| 530 | |
| 531 *v_iW* *iW* | |
| 532 iW "inner WORD", select [count] WORDs (see |WORD|). | |
| 533 White space between words is counted too. | |
| 534 When used in Visual linewise mode "iW" switches to | |
| 535 Visual characterwise mode. | |
| 536 | |
| 537 *v_as* *as* | |
| 538 as "a sentence", select [count] sentences (see | |
| 539 |sentence|). | |

| 542 *v_is* *is* | |
| 543 is "inner sentence", select [count] sentences (see | |
| 544 |sentence|). | |
| 545 When used in Visual mode it is made characterwise. | |
| 546 | |
| 547 *v_ap* *ap* | |
| 548 ap "a paragraph", select [count] paragraphs (see | |
| 549 |paragraph|). | |
| 550 Exception: a blank line (only containing white space) | |
| 551 is also a paragraph boundary. | |
| 552 When used in Visual mode it is made linewise. | |
| 553 | |
| 554 *v_ip* *ip* | |
| 555 ip "inner paragraph", select [count] paragraphs (see | |
| 556 |paragraph|). | |
| 557 Exception: a blank line (only containing white space) | |
| 558 is also a paragraph boundary. | |

| 560 | |
| 561 a] *v_a]* *v_a[* *a]* *a[* | |
| 562 a[ "a [] block", select [count] '[' ']' blocks. This | |
| 563 goes backwards to the [count] unclosed '[', and finds | |
| 564 the matching ']'. The enclosed text is selected, | |
| 565 including the '[' and ']'. | |
| 566 When used in Visual mode it is made characterwise. | |
| 567 | |
| 568 i] *v_i]* *v_i[* *i]* *i[* | |
| 569 i[ "inner [] block", select [count] '[' ']' blocks. This | |
| 570 goes backwards to the [count] unclosed '[', and finds | |

| 579 |[(|). Does not include white space outside of the | |
| 580 parenthesis. | |

| 600 When used in Visual mode it is made characterwise. | |
| 601 | |
| 602 *v_at* *at* | |
| 603 at "a tag block", select [count] tag blocks, from the | |
| 604 [count]'th unmatched "<aaa>" backwards to the matching | |
| 605 "</aaa>", including the "<aaa>" and "</aaa>". | |
| 606 See |tag-blocks| about the details. | |
| 607 When used in Visual mode it is made characterwise. | |
| 608 | |
| 609 *v_it* *it* | |
| 610 it "inner tag block", select [count] tag blocks, from the | |
| 611 [count]'th unmatched "<aaa>" backwards to the matching | |
| 612 "</aaa>", excluding the "<aaa>" and "</aaa>". | |
| 613 See |tag-blocks| about the details. | |

| 616 a} *v_a}* *a}* *a{* | |
| 617 a{ *v_aB* *v_a{* *aB* | |
| 618 aB "a Block", select [count] Blocks, from "[count] [{" to | |
| 619 the matching '}', including the '{' and '}' (see | |
| 620 |[{|). | |
| 621 When used in Visual mode it is made characterwise. | |
| 622 | |
| 623 i} *v_i}* *i}* *i{* | |
| 624 i{ *v_iB* *v_i{* *iB* | |
| 625 iB "inner Block", select [count] Blocks, from "[count] [{" | |
| 626 to the matching '}', excluding the '{' and '}' (see | |
| 627 |[{|). | |
| 628 When used in Visual mode it is made characterwise. | |
| 629 | |
| 630 a" *v_aquote* *aquote* | |
| 631 a' *v_a'* *a'* | |
| 632 a` *v_a`* *a`* | |
| 633 "a quoted string". Selects the text from the previous | |
| 634 quote until the next quote. The 'quoteescape' option | |
| 635 is used to skip escaped quotes. | |
| 636 Only works within one line. | |
| 637 When the cursor starts on a quote, Vim will figure out | |
| 638 which quote pairs form a string by searching from the | |
| 639 start of the line. | |
| 640 Any trailing or leading white space is included. | |
| 641 When used in Visual mode it is made characterwise. | |
| 642 Repeating this object in Visual mode another string is | |
| 643 included. A count is currently not used. | |
| 644 | |
| 645 i" *v_iquote* *iquote* | |
| 646 i' *v_i'* *i'* | |
| 647 i` *v_i`* *i`* | |
| 648 Like a", a' and a`, but exclude the quotes and | |
| 649 repeating won't extend the Visual selection. | |
| 650 Special case: With a count of 2 the quotes are | |
| 651 included, but no extra white space as with a"/a'/a`. | |
| 652 | |
| 653 When used after an operator: | |
| 654 For non-block objects: | |
| 655 For the "a" commands: The operator applies to the object and the white | |
| 656 space after the object. If there is no white space after the object | |
| 657 or when the cursor was in the white space before the object, the white | |
| 658 space before the object is included. | |
| 659 For the "inner" commands: If the cursor was on the object, the | |
| 660 operator applies to the object. If the cursor was on white space, the | |
| 661 operator applies to the white space. | |
| 662 For a block object: | |
| 663 The operator applies to the block where the cursor is in, or the block | |
| 664 on which the cursor is on one of the braces. For the "inner" commands | |
| 665 the surrounding braces are excluded. For the "a" commands, the braces | |
| 666 are included. | |
| 667 | |
| 668 When used in Visual mode: | |
| 669 When start and end of the Visual area are the same (just after typing "v"): | |
| 670 One object is selected, the same as for using an operator. | |
| 671 When start and end of the Visual area are not the same: | |
| 672 For non-block objects the area is extended by one object or the white | |
| 673 space up to the next object, or both for the "a" objects. The | |
| 674 direction in which this happens depends on which side of the Visual | |
| 675 area the cursor is. For the block objects the block is extended one | |
| 676 level outwards. | |
| 677 | |
| 678 For illustration, here is a list of delete commands, grouped from small to big | |
| 679 objects. Note that for a single character and a whole line the existing vi | |
| 680 movement commands are used. | |
| 681 "dl" delete character (alias: "x") |dl| | |
| 682 "diw" delete inner word *diw* | |
| 683 "daw" delete a word *daw* | |
| 684 "diW" delete inner WORD (see |WORD|) *diW* | |
| 685 "daW" delete a WORD (see |WORD|) *daW* | |
| 686 "dd" delete one line |dd| | |
| 687 "dis" delete inner sentence *dis* | |
| 688 "das" delete a sentence *das* | |
| 689 "dib" delete inner '(' ')' block *dib* | |
| 690 "dab" delete a '(' ')' block *dab* | |
| 691 "dip" delete inner paragraph *dip* | |
| 692 "dap" delete a paragraph *dap* | |
| 693 "diB" delete inner '{' '}' block *diB* | |
| 694 "daB" delete a '{' '}' block *daB* | |
| 695 | |
| 696 Note the difference between using a movement command and an object. The | |
| 697 movement command operates from here (cursor position) to where the movement | |
| 698 takes us. When using an object the whole object is operated upon, no matter | |
| 699 where on the object the cursor is. For example, compare "dw" and "daw": "dw" | |
| 700 deletes from the cursor position to the start of the next word, "daw" deletes | |
| 701 the word under the cursor and the space after or before it. | |
| 702 | |
| 703 | |
| 704 Tag blocks *tag-blocks* | |
| 705 | |
| 706 For the "it" and "at" text objects an attempt is done to select blocks between | |
| 707 matching tags for HTML and XML. But since these are not completely compatible | |
| 708 there are a few restrictions. | |
| 709 | |
| 710 The normal method is to select a <tag> until the matching </tag>. For "at" | |
| 711 the tags are included, for "it" they are excluded. But when "it" is repeated | |
| 712 the tags will be included (otherwise nothing would change). Also, "it" used | |
| 713 on a tag block with no contents will select the leading tag. | |
| 714 | |
| 715 "<aaa/>" items are skipped. Case is ignored, also for XML where case does | |
| 716 matter. | |
| 717 | |
| 718 In HTML it is possible to have a tag like <br> or <meta ...> without a | |
| 719 matching end tag. These are ignored. | |
| 720 | |
| 721 The text objects are tolerant about mistakes. Stray end tags are ignored. | |
| 722 | |
| 723 ============================================================================== | |
| 724 7. Marks *mark-motions* *E20* *E78* | |
| 725 | |
| 726 Jumping to a mark can be done in two ways: | |
| 727 1. With ` (backtick): The cursor is positioned at the specified location | |
| 728 and the motion is |exclusive|. | |
| 729 2. With ' (single quote): The cursor is positioned on the first non-blank | |
| 730 character in the line of the specified location and | |
| 731 the motion is linewise. | |
| 732 | |
| 733 *m* *mark* *Mark* | |
| 734 m{a-zA-Z} Set mark {a-zA-Z} at cursor position (does not move | |
| 735 the cursor, this is not a motion command). | |
| 736 | |
| 737 *m'* *m`* | |
| 738 m' or m` Set the previous context mark. This can be jumped to | |
| 739 with the "''" or "``" command (does not move the | |
| 740 cursor, this is not a motion command). | |
| 741 | |
| 742 *m[* *m]* | |
| 743 m[ or m] Set the |'[| or |']| mark. Useful when an operator is | |
| 744 to be simulated by multiple commands. (does not move | |
| 745 the cursor, this is not a motion command). | |
| 746 | |
| 747 *:ma* *:mark* *E191* | |
| 748 :[range]ma[rk] {a-zA-Z'} | |
| 749 Set mark {a-zA-Z'} at last line number in [range], | |
| 750 column 0. Default is cursor line. | |
| 751 | |
| 752 *:k* | |
| 753 :[range]k{a-zA-Z'} Same as :mark, but the space before the mark name can | |
| 754 be omitted. | |
| 755 | |
| 756 *'* *'a* *`* *`a* | |
| 757 '{a-z} `{a-z} Jump to the mark {a-z} in the current buffer. | |
| 758 | |
| 759 *'A* *'0* *`A* *`0* | |
| 760 '{A-Z0-9} `{A-Z0-9} To the mark {A-Z0-9} in the file where it was set (not | |
| 761 a motion command when in another file). {not in Vi} | |
| 762 | |
| 763 *g'* *g'a* *g`* *g`a* | |
| 764 g'{mark} g`{mark} | |
| 765 Jump to the {mark}, but don't change the jumplist when | |
| 766 jumping within the current buffer. Example: > | |
| 767 g`" | |
| 768 < jumps to the last known position in a file. See | |
| 769 $VIMRUNTIME/vimrc_example.vim. | |
| 770 Also see |:keepjumps|. | |
| 771 {not in Vi} | |
| 772 | |
| 773 *:marks* | |
| 774 :marks List all the current marks (not a motion command). | |
| 775 The |'(|, |')|, |'{| and |'}| marks are not listed. | |
| 776 The first column has number zero. | |
| 777 {not in Vi} | |
| 778 *E283* | |
| 779 :marks {arg} List the marks that are mentioned in {arg} (not a | |
| 780 motion command). For example: > | |
| 781 :marks aB | |
| 782 < to list marks 'a' and 'B'. {not in Vi} | |
| 783 | |
| 784 *:delm* *:delmarks* | |
| 785 :delm[arks] {marks} Delete the specified marks. Marks that can be deleted | |
| 786 include A-Z and 0-9. You cannot delete the ' mark. | |
| 787 They can be specified by giving the list of mark | |
| 788 names, or with a range, separated with a dash. Spaces | |
| 789 are ignored. Examples: > | |
| 790 :delmarks a deletes mark a | |
| 791 :delmarks a b 1 deletes marks a, b and 1 | |
| 792 :delmarks Aa deletes marks A and a | |
| 793 :delmarks p-z deletes marks in the range p to z | |
| 794 :delmarks ^.[] deletes marks ^ . [ ] | |
| 795 :delmarks \" deletes mark " | |
| 796 < {not in Vi} | |
| 797 | |
| 798 :delm[arks]! Delete all marks for the current buffer, but not marks | |
| 799 A-Z or 0-9. | |
| 800 {not in Vi} | |
| 801 | |
| 802 A mark is not visible in any way. It is just a position in the file that is | |
| 803 remembered. Do not confuse marks with named registers, they are totally | |
| 804 unrelated. | |
| 805 | |
| 806 'a - 'z lowercase marks, valid within one file | |
| 807 'A - 'Z uppercase marks, also called file marks, valid between files | |
| 808 '0 - '9 numbered marks, set from .viminfo file | |
| 809 | |
| 810 Lowercase marks 'a to 'z are remembered as long as the file remains in the | |
| 811 buffer list. If you remove the file from the buffer list, all its marks are | |
| 812 lost. If you delete a line that contains a mark, that mark is erased. | |
| 813 | |
| 814 Lowercase marks can be used in combination with operators. For example: "d't" | |
| 815 deletes the lines from the cursor position to mark 't'. Hint: Use mark 't' for | |
| 816 Top, 'b' for Bottom, etc.. Lowercase marks are restored when using undo and | |
| 817 redo. | |
| 818 | |
| 819 Uppercase marks 'A to 'Z include the file name. {Vi: no uppercase marks} You | |
| 820 can use them to jump from file to file. You can only use an uppercase mark | |
| 821 with an operator if the mark is in the current file. The line number of the | |
| 822 mark remains correct, even if you insert/delete lines or edit another file for | |
| 823 a moment. When the 'viminfo' option is not empty, uppercase marks are kept in | |
| 824 the .viminfo file. See |viminfo-file-marks|. | |
| 825 | |
| 826 Numbered marks '0 to '9 are quite different. They can not be set directly. | |
| 827 They are only present when using a viminfo file |viminfo-file|. Basically '0 | |
| 828 is the location of the cursor when you last exited Vim, '1 the last but one | |
| 829 time, etc. Use the "r" flag in 'viminfo' to specify files for which no | |
| 830 Numbered mark should be stored. See |viminfo-file-marks|. | |
| 831 | |
| 832 | |
| 833 *'[* *`[* | |
| 834 '[ `[ To the first character of the previously changed | |
| 835 or yanked text. {not in Vi} | |
| 836 | |
| 837 *']* *`]* | |
| 838 '] `] To the last character of the previously changed or | |
| 839 yanked text. {not in Vi} | |
| 840 | |
| 841 After executing an operator the Cursor is put at the beginning of the text | |
| 842 that was operated upon. After a put command ("p" or "P") the cursor is | |
| 843 sometimes placed at the first inserted line and sometimes on the last inserted | |
| 844 character. The four commands above put the cursor at either end. Example: | |
| 845 After yanking 10 lines you want to go to the last one of them: "10Y']". After | |
| 846 inserting several lines with the "p" command you want to jump to the lowest | |
| 847 inserted line: "p']". This also works for text that has been inserted. | |
| 848 | |

| 938 will be the same when the change has completed. | |
| 939 WARNING: When the line count does change, marks below | |

| 941 another text line. | |

| 950 - line numbers in placed signs | |
| 951 - line numbers in quickfix positions | |
| 952 - positions in the |jumplist| | |
| 953 - positions in the |tagstack| | |
| 954 These items will still be adjusted: | |
| 955 - previous context mark '' | |
| 956 - the cursor position | |
| 957 - the view of a window on a buffer | |
| 958 - folds | |

| 961 :kee[pmarks] {command} *:kee* *:keepmarks* | |
| 962 Currently only has effect for the filter command | |
| 963 |:range!|: | |
| 964 - When the number of lines after filtering is equal to | |
| 965 or larger than before, all marks are kept at the | |
| 966 same line number. | |
| 967 - When the number of lines decreases, the marks in the | |
| 968 lines that disappeared are deleted. | |
| 969 In any case the marks below the filtered text have | |
| 970 their line numbers adjusted, thus stick to the text, | |
| 971 as usual. | |
| 972 When the 'R' flag is missing from 'cpoptions' this has | |
| 973 the same effect as using ":keepmarks". | |
| 974 | |
| 975 *:keepj* *:keepjumps* | |
| 976 :keepj[umps] {command} | |
| 977 Moving around in {command} does not change the |''|, | |
| 978 |'.| and |'^| marks, the |jumplist| or the | |
| 979 |changelist|. | |
| 980 Useful when making a change or inserting text | |
| 981 automatically and the user doesn't want to go to this | |
| 982 position. E.g., when updating a "Last change" | |
| 983 timestamp in the first line: > | |
| 984 | |
| 985 :let lnum = line(".") | |
| 986 :keepjumps normal gg | |
| 987 :call SetLastChange() | |
| 988 :keepjumps exe "normal " . lnum . "G" | |
| 989 < | |
| 990 Note that ":keepjumps" must be used for every command. | |
| 991 When invoking a function the commands in that function | |
| 992 can still change the jumplist. Also, for | |
| 993 ":keepjumps exe 'command '" the "command" won't keep | |
| 994 jumps. Instead use: ":exe 'keepjumps command'" | |
| 995 | |
| 996 ============================================================================== | |
| 997 8. Jumps *jump-motions* | |
| 998 | |
| 999 A "jump" is one of the following commands: "'", "`", "G", "/", "?", "n", | |
| 1000 "N", "%", "(", ")", "[[", "]]", "{", "}", ":s", ":tag", "L", "M", "H" and | |
| 1001 the commands that start editing a new file. If you make the cursor "jump" | |
| 1002 with one of these commands, the position of the cursor before the jump is | |
| 1003 remembered. You can return to that position with the "''" and "``" command, | |
| 1004 unless the line containing that position was changed or deleted. | |
| 1005 | |
| 1006 *CTRL-O* | |
| 1007 CTRL-O Go to [count] Older cursor position in jump list | |
| 1008 (not a motion command). {not in Vi} | |
| 1009 {not available without the +jumplist feature} | |
| 1010 | |
| 1011 <Tab> or *CTRL-I* *<Tab>* | |
| 1012 CTRL-I Go to [count] newer cursor position in jump list | |
| 1013 (not a motion command). | |
| 1014 In a |quickfix-window| it takes you to the position of | |
| 1015 the error under the cursor. | |
| 1016 {not in Vi} | |
| 1017 {not available without the +jumplist feature} | |
| 1018 | |
| 1019 *:ju* *:jumps* | |
| 1020 :ju[mps] Print the jump list (not a motion command). {not in | |
| 1021 Vi} {not available without the +jumplist feature} | |
| 1022 | |
| 1023 *jumplist* | |
| 1024 Jumps are remembered in a jump list. With the CTRL-O and CTRL-I command you | |
| 1025 can go to cursor positions before older jumps, and back again. Thus you can | |
| 1026 move up and down the list. There is a separate jump list for each window. | |
| 1027 The maximum number of entries is fixed at 100. | |
| 1028 {not available without the +jumplist feature} | |
| 1029 | |
| 1030 For example, after three jump commands you have this jump list: | |
| 1031 | |
| 1032 jump line col file/line ~ | |
| 1033 3 1 0 some text ~ | |
| 1034 2 70 0 another line ~ | |
| 1035 1 1154 23 end. ~ | |
| 1036 > ~ | |
| 1037 | |
| 1038 The "file/line" column shows the file name, or the text at the jump if it is | |
| 1039 in the current file (an indent is removed and a long line is truncated to fit | |
| 1040 in the window). | |
| 1041 | |
| 1042 You are currently in line 1167. If you then use the CTRL-O command, the | |
| 1043 cursor is put in line 1154. This results in: | |
| 1044 | |
| 1045 jump line col file/line ~ | |
| 1046 2 1 0 some text ~ | |
| 1047 1 70 0 another line ~ | |
| 1048 > 0 1154 23 end. ~ | |
| 1049 1 1167 0 foo bar ~ | |
| 1050 | |
| 1051 The pointer will be set at the last used jump position. The next CTRL-O | |
| 1052 command will use the entry above it, the next CTRL-I command will use the | |
| 1053 entry below it. If the pointer is below the last entry, this indicates that | |
| 1054 you did not use a CTRL-I or CTRL-O before. In this case the CTRL-O command | |
| 1055 will cause the cursor position to be added to the jump list, so you can get | |
| 1056 back to the position before the CTRL-O. In this case this is line 1167. | |
| 1057 | |
| 1058 With more CTRL-O commands you will go to lines 70 and 1. If you use CTRL-I | |
| 1059 you can go back to 1154 and 1167 again. Note that the number in the "jump" | |
| 1060 column indicates the count for the CTRL-O or CTRL-I command that takes you to | |
| 1061 this position. | |
| 1062 | |
| 1063 If you use a jump command, the current line number is inserted at the end of | |
| 1064 the jump list. If the same line was already in the jump list, it is removed. | |
| 1065 The result is that when repeating CTRL-O you will get back to old positions | |
| 1066 only once. | |
| 1067 | |
| 1068 When the |:keepjumps| command modifier is used, jumps are not stored in the | |
| 1069 jumplist. Jumps are also not stored in other cases, e.g., in a |:global| | |
| 1070 command. You can explicitly add a jump by setting the ' mark. | |
| 1071 | |
| 1072 After the CTRL-O command that got you into line 1154 you could give another | |
| 1073 jump command (e.g., "G"). The jump list would then become: | |
| 1074 | |
| 1075 jump line col file/line ~ | |
| 1076 4 1 0 some text ~ | |
| 1077 3 70 0 another line ~ | |
| 1078 2 1167 0 foo bar ~ | |
| 1079 1 1154 23 end. ~ | |
| 1080 > ~ | |
| 1081 | |
| 1082 The line numbers will be adjusted for deleted and inserted lines. This fails | |
| 1083 if you stop editing a file without writing, like with ":n!". | |
| 1084 | |
| 1085 When you split a window, the jumplist will be copied to the new window. | |
| 1086 | |
| 1087 If you have included the ' item in the 'viminfo' option the jumplist will be | |
| 1088 stored in the viminfo file and restored when starting Vim. | |
| 1089 | |
| 1090 | |
| 1091 CHANGE LIST JUMPS *changelist* *change-list-jumps* *E664* | |
| 1092 | |
| 1093 When making a change the cursor position is remembered. One position is | |
| 1094 remembered for every change that can be undone, unless it is close to a | |
| 1095 previous change. Two commands can be used to jump to positions of changes, | |
| 1096 also those that have been undone: | |
| 1097 | |
| 1098 *g;* *E662* | |
| 1099 g; Go to [count] older position in change list. | |
| 1100 If [count] is larger than the number of older change | |
| 1101 positions go to the oldest change. | |
| 1102 If there is no older change an error message is given. | |
| 1103 (not a motion command) | |
| 1104 {not in Vi} | |
| 1105 {not available without the +jumplist feature} | |
| 1106 | |
| 1107 *g,* *E663* | |
| 1108 g, Go to [count] newer cursor position in change list. | |
| 1109 Just like |g;| but in the opposite direction. | |
| 1110 (not a motion command) | |
| 1111 {not in Vi} | |
| 1112 {not available without the +jumplist feature} | |
| 1113 | |
| 1114 When using a count you jump as far back or forward as possible. Thus you can | |
| 1115 use "999g;" to go to the first change for which the position is still | |
| 1116 remembered. The number of entries in the change list is fixed and is the same | |
| 1117 as for the |jumplist|. | |
| 1118 | |
| 1119 When two undo-able changes are in the same line and at a column position less | |
| 1120 than 'textwidth' apart only the last one is remembered. This avoids that a | |
| 1121 sequence of small changes in a line, for example "xxxxx", adds many positions | |
| 1122 to the change list. When 'textwidth' is zero 'wrapmargin' is used. When that | |
| 1123 also isn't set a fixed number of 79 is used. Detail: For the computations | |
| 1124 bytes are used, not characters, to avoid a speed penalty (this only matters | |
| 1125 for multi-byte encodings). | |
| 1126 | |
| 1127 Note that when text has been inserted or deleted the cursor position might be | |
| 1128 a bit different from the position of the change. Especially when lines have | |
| 1129 been deleted. | |
| 1130 | |
| 1131 When the |:keepjumps| command modifier is used the position of a change is not | |
| 1132 remembered. | |
| 1133 | |
| 1134 *:changes* | |
| 1135 :changes Print the change list. A ">" character indicates the | |
| 1136 current position. Just after a change it is below the | |
| 1137 newest entry, indicating that "g;" takes you to the | |
| 1138 newest entry position. The first column indicates the | |
| 1139 count needed to take you to this position. Example: | |
| 1140 | |
| 1141 change line col text ~ | |
| 1142 3 9 8 bla bla bla | |
| 1143 2 11 57 foo is a bar | |
| 1144 1 14 54 the latest changed line | |
| 1145 > | |
| 1146 | |
| 1147 The "3g;" command takes you to line 9. Then the | |
| 1148 output of ":changes is: | |
| 1149 | |
| 1150 change line col text ~ | |
| 1151 > 0 9 8 bla bla bla | |
| 1152 1 11 57 foo is a bar | |
| 1153 2 14 54 the latest changed line | |
| 1154 | |
| 1155 Now you can use "g," to go to line 11 and "2g," to go | |
| 1156 to line 14. | |

| 1247 The above two commands assume that the file contains a class with methods. | |
| 1248 The class definition is surrounded in '{' and '}'. Each method in the class | |
| 1249 is also surrounded with '{' and '}'. This applies to the Java language. The | |
| 1250 file looks like this: > | |
| 1251 | |
| 1252 // comment | |
| 1253 class foo { | |
| 1254 int method_one() { | |
| 1255 body_one(); | |
| 1256 } | |
| 1257 int method_two() { | |
| 1258 body_two(); | |
| 1259 } | |
| 1260 } | |
| 1261 Starting with the cursor on "body_two()", using "[m" will jump to the '{' at | |
| 1262 the start of "method_two()" (obviously this is much more useful when the | |
| 1263 method is long!). Using "2[m" will jump to the start of "method_one()". | |
| 1264 Using "3[m" will jump to the start of the class. | |

| 1274 These two commands work in C programs that contain #if/#else/#endif | |
| 1275 constructs. It brings you to the start or end of the #if/#else/#endif where | |
| 1276 the current line is included. You can then use "%" to go to the matching line. | |
