vim-split-line
Without exiting normal mode, joining two lines is easy: J
But splitting and auto-indenting a line is a little awkward:
| Context | Keyboard |
|---|---|
| Splitting on cursor | i Enter Esc |
| Splitting on one char of whitespace | r Enter |
| Splitting on more than one char of whitespace | c i w Enter Esc |
vim-split-line gives the :SplitLine command. Without leaving normal
mode it:
- Splits the line under the cursor
- Remove trailing whitespace on first line
- Auto-indents second line
Installation
Install with a plugin manager.
Configuration
nnoremap S :SplitLine<CR>
I use S because the default behaviour is almost identical to c c, and it has a nice symmetry with J.
Alternatives
You don't actually need this plugin, the below also works:
nnoremap S :keeppatterns substitute/\s*\%#\s*/\r/e <bar> normal! ==<CR>
