nvim support?

I'm on nvim 0.6.1 and have installed this with Plug but nothing happens when I do <Leader>-h.

Is this because nvim != vim and nvim is not supported?

Thanks, it looks like a useful plugin.

It works with both vim and nvim.

Did you set up the <Leader>h maps suggested in the readme?

If you did, what does :verbose nmap <Leader>h print?

scanny commented

Yeah, doesn't work for me on nvim either. Prints n ,h <Plug>(HighlightToggle) in response to :verbose nmap <Leader>h.

airblade commented

It should map to <Plug>(HighlineToggle) ("line" not "light").

artfulrobot commented

I'm using

...
Plug 'airblade/vim-highline'
...
nmap <Leader>h <Plug>(HighlineToggle)
xmap <Leader>h <Plug>(HighlineToggle)
nmap <Leader>H <Plug>(HighlineClear)
highlight link Highline Pmenu
highlight Highline guibg=#ff4444

(Have tried various combinations of highlight ... lines)

And :verbose nmap <Leader>h gives:

n  \h            <Plug>(HighlineToggle)                                                                                                                                             
        Last set from ~/.config/nvim/init.vim line 541

With nvim 0.7.0. Pressing leader-h does nothing.

Oh, my mistake, the plugin currently uses vim's text properties which neovim doesn't have. I'll update the code to use the neovim equivalent on neovim.

Unfortunately on NeoVim the syntax highlighting doesn't show through the highlight. Reading the docs on nvim_buf_set_extmark(), hopefully the hl_mode will support this in future.

scanny commented

Yeah, I suppose that would be nice, but this works plenty well enough for me as is :)
