Ironically I think most of the IDE (ie intellij etc) vim plugins have them while you do not.
- arvinsim 10y agoTIL that there are text objects for tags. Thanks!
- chongli 10y agoYeah, I'm aware of text objects (I used vim for years). I don't miss them as much as I thought I would. Most of them can be replaced by compositions of the primitive motion commands. Heck, you could probably even outright replace them with macros. I just haven't felt the need to.
