vim-textobj-matchit

A Vim plugin that creates text objects from matchit pairs, to be used with:

• Ruby (if…end, def…end)
• Blade (@section…@endsection)
• Shell (if…fi, for…done)
• Vim script (if…endif, for…endfor)
• :man_shrugging: Any other filetype that defines similar matchit pairs

:package: Installation

Depends on vim-textobj-user and matchit.

Plug 'kana/vim-textobj-user'
Plug 'adriaanzon/vim-textobj-matchit'

runtime macros/matchit.vim

It's likely that matchit is already enabled. You can check so by running :echo g:loaded_matchit. It will return 1 when it's enabled.

:sparkles: Usage

Textobj-matchit maps 2 keystrokes: am and im. They work like any other text object: am selects the all of the matchit pair, im the inner portion of the matchit pair.

See :h textobj-matchit for more details, including instructions on how to define your own key mappings.

:man_teacher: History

This plugin derives from vim-textobj-rubyblock and vim-textobj-blade-directive. I wanted something similar that works for every filetype, so that is why I created this plugin.
