redacted

How to use it

Just select some text and use :Redact to redact it. Use :Redact! to clear the text.

You can also map an operator with <Plug>Redact:

nmap <leader>r <Plug>Redact
vmap <leader>r <Plug>Redact

Use :RedactedW to persist your changes, so your file will still look the same if you close Vim and open it again.

But why?

I wrote Redacted because I often have to paraphrase something I wrote, but it's hard to do it when you're looking at the original words; it feels like there's no other way to say it. So I though, "it would be nice if I could read a sentence, hide it, and then try to come up with a new way to explain it without looking at the original text". So there you have it. You could also use it to make something like flash cards; you can cover the answers with Redacted and select them in visual mode when you want to see what's behind.
