# Overview
This plugin allows configuration of custom text objects, to perform actions on
additional sections of text than Vim has built-in.
# Installation
This plugin can be installed as a standard Vim package (see `:help packages`).
Simply clone this repository into ~/.vim/pack/plugins/start/vim-textobj to
install the Vim files for this plugin.
# Configuration
Configuration is done by setting the `g:textobj_defs` variable to a dict which
maps input keys to a list containing the text object type and arguments to pass
to that type. For instance:
```
let g:textobj_defs = {
\ '/': ['paired'],
\ 'r': ['paired', '/'],
\ '\|': ['paired'],
\ 'f': ['fold'],
\ ',': ['arg'],
\}
```
This defines five text object characters: `/` and `r` (for regex?) for text
within matching pairs of `/` characters, `|` for text within matching pairs of
`|` characters, `f` for text within the current fold, and `,` for the current
argument in a comma-separated function argument list. This, for instance,
allows you to use `di/` to delete the text within a Perl regex.
Currently, these are the available types:
* `paired`: matches text between pairs of characters. Takes one optional
argument for the character to match between, which defaults to the input
character.
* `fold`: matches the text within the current fold. Takes no arguments.
* `arg`: matches the current function argument. Given text like
`foo(bar, b|az, quux)` (where `|` is the cursor location), if `,` is the
input character, `da,` will result in `foo(bar, |quux)` and `di,` will
result in `foo(bar, |, quux)` . Takes no arguments.
