Bullets.vim is a Vim plugin for automated bullet lists.
With VimPlug:
Plug 'dkarter/bullets.vim'Then source your bundle file and run :PlugInstall.
In markdown or a text file start a bulleted list using - or *. Press return
to go to the next line, a new list item will be created.
You can choose which file types this plugin will work on:
" Bullets.vim
let g:bullets_enabled_file_types = [
\ 'markdown',
\ 'text',
\ 'gitcommit',
\ 'scratch'
\]Just add above to your .vimrc
:h bullets
The test suite is only known to be working on OS X with MacVim installed. I tried running it on Circle CI but had no success.
On your mac run:
rspec specYou should see a Vim window open which will run each test, same general idea as Capybara integration testing. ❤️
- eliminate trailing bullet on previous line if user pressed twice
- allow indenting while in insert mode (C-l: indent right, C-h: indent left)
- scope the keybindings and functions to markdown and perhaps text
- allow GFM-style checkbox auto bullet
- prefix shortcuts and allow disabling them
- add numbered list
- reset numbers (user selects numbered bullets 3-5 and copies to middle of document, then reselects and resets them to 1-3)
- check if plugin initialized and don't load if it did
- allow for return without creating a bullet (only possible in GuiVim unfortunately)
- create a text object for bullets
- create a text object for GFM-style checkboxes
- check if user is at EOL before appending auto-bullet - they may just want to
- add alphabetic list
- allow user to define a global var with custom bullets
- create a text object for bullet list indentation
- detect lists that have multiline bullets (should have no empty lines between lines). break the line at a certain point
- support for intelligent alphanumeric indented bullets e.g. 1. \t a. \t 1.
