Evanesco

Evanesco is a plugin geared towards automatically clearing Vim's search highlighting whenever the cursor moves or insert mode is entered. It has a feature set similar to vim-oblique and I really just built this to scratch an itch. I ran into a lot of problems with vim-oblique and it seemed simpler to re-implement the subset of the features that I actually use.

The only reason to use this plugin over vim-oblique is that it's arguably less of a hack, doesn't have any plugin dependencies, and the code is significantly smaller.

FAQ

Q. Evanesco conflicts with my favorite mapping for <char>, what should I do?

A. You have three options:

  1. Put the mapping in ~/.vim/after/plugin and read :h after-directory

  2. Place this line in your vimrc:

autocmd SourceCmd *plugin/evanesco.vim source <afile> | <your_mapping_here>
  1. Bug me on the issue tracker with a compelling use case
