Kakoune
|
|
=======
|
|
|
|
Introduction:
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
Kakoune is a code editor heavily inspired by vim, as such most of it's
|
|
commands are similar to vi's ones.
|
|
|
|
Kakoune can operate in two modes, normal and insertion. In insertion mode,
|
|
keys are directly inserted into the current buffer. In normal mode, keys
|
|
are used to manipulate the current selection and to enter insertion mode.
|
|
|
|
There is no concept of cursor in kakoune, only selections, a single character
|
|
selection can be seen as a cursor but there is no difference internally.
|
|
|
|
Building
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
Kakoune dependencies are:
|
|
|
|
* GCC >= 4.6
|
|
* boost
|
|
* ncurses
|
|
|
|
To build, just type *make* in the src directory
|
|
|
|
Basic Movement
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
* _space_: select the character under selection end
|
|
|
|
* _h_: select the character on the right of selection end
|
|
* _j_: select the character below the selection end
|
|
* _k_: select the character above the selection end
|
|
* _l_: select the character on the left of selection end
|
|
|
|
* _w_: select the word and following whitespaces on the right of selection end
|
|
* _b_: select preceding whitespaces and the word on the left of selection end
|
|
* _e_: select preceding whitespaces and the word on the right of selection end
|
|
|
|
* _x_: select line on which selection end lies
|
|
* _%_: select whole buffer
|
|
|
|
* _alt-H_: select to line begin
|
|
* _alt-L_: select to line end
|
|
|
|
Appending
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
for most selection commands, using shift permits to add to current selection
|
|
instead of replacing it. for example, _wWW_ selects 3 consecutive words
|
|
|
|
Using Counts
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
Most selection commands also support counts, which are entered before the
|
|
command itself.
|
|
|
|
for example, _3W_ selects 3 consecutive words and _3w_ select the third word on
|
|
the right of selection end.
|
|
|
|
Changes
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
* _i_: insert before current selection
|
|
* _a_: insert after current selection
|
|
* _d_: yank and delete current selection
|
|
* _c_: yank and delete current selection and insert
|
|
|
|
* _I_: insert at current selection begin line start
|
|
* _A_: insert at current selection end line end
|
|
* _o_: insert in a new line below current selection end
|
|
* _O_: insert in a new line above current selection begin
|
|
|
|
* _p_: paste after current selection end
|
|
* _P_: paste before current selection begin
|
|
|
|
Filters
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
Manipulation of the displayed text is done through filters, which can be added or
|
|
removed with the command :addfilter <filter_name> <filter_parameters...>
|
|
|
|
existing filters are:
|
|
|
|
* *hlcpp*: takes no parameters, highlight c++ code
|
|
* *line_numbers*: takes no parameters, display line numbers on the left of the window
|
|
|
|
Windows also contains two filters by default, which are not currently addable
|
|
(but they are removable)
|
|
|
|
* *show_tabs*: which expand tabs to next 8 multiple column
|
|
* *show_selection*: which underlines the current selections
|
