Go to next CHAR which is similar to "f" and "t" in vim
This package defines the function iy-go-to-char
which behaves like "f" in vim, and iy-go-up-to-char
like "t" in vim. It reads a char and go the next Nth occurence of the char. User can continue such search using that char key.
To use, make sure this file is on your load-path
and put the following in your .emacs file:
To make iy-go-to-char
works better with multiple-cursors
, add iy-go-to-char-start-pos
to mc/cursor-specific-vars
when mc is loaded:
(add-to-list 'mc/cursor-specific-vars 'iy-go-to-char-start-pos)
Then you can bind functions like:
(global-set-key (kbd "C-c f") 'iy-go-to-char)
(global-set-key (kbd "C-c F") 'iy-go-to-char-backward)
(global-set-key (kbd "C-c ;") 'iy-go-to-or-up-to-continue)
(global-set-key (kbd "C-c ,") 'iy-go-to-or-up-to-continue-backward)
Or if you prefer up-to (vim "t") versions:
(global-set-key (kbd "C-c f") 'iy-go-up-to-char)
(global-set-key (kbd "C-c F") 'iy-go-up-to-char-backward)
You also can bind go-to methods and up-to methods to different keys.
Except repeating the char key, followings keys are defined before quitting the search (which can be disabled by setting iy-go-to-char-override-local-map
to nil):
X -- where X is the char to be searched. Repeating it will search forward the char. Can be disabled through iy-go-to-char-continue-when-repeating
; -- search forward the char, customizable: iy-go-to-char-key-forward
, iy-go-to-char-use-key-forward
, -- search backward the char, customizable: iy-go-to-char-key-backward
, iy-go-to-char-use-key-backward
C-g -- quit
C-s -- start isearch-forward
using char as initial search string
C-r -- start isearch-backward
using char as initial search string
C-w -- quit and kill region between start and current point. If region is activated before search, then use the original mark instead of the start position.
M-w -- quit and save region between start and current point. If region is activated before search, use the mark instead of start position.
All other keys will quit the search. Then the key event is intepreted in the original environment before search.
if the search quits because of error or using "C-g", point is set back to the start position. Otherwise, point is not change and the start position is set as marker. So you can use "C-x C-x" back to that position.
iy-go-to-char-backward
search backward by default. Also the search can cross lines. To continue search last char, use iy-go-to-char-continue
and iy-go-to-char-continue-backward
.

Finish iy-go-to-char-mode.
Quit iy-go-to-char-mode.
(iy-go-to-char-pass-through)
Finish iy-go-to-char-mode and invoke the corresponding command.
Start isearch using the char.
(iy-go-to-char-isearch-backward)
Start isearch backward using the char.
(iy-go-to-char-kill-region)
Kill region between jump start position and current position.
(iy-go-to-char-kill-ring-save)
Save region between jump start position and current position.
Move forward to N occurrences of CHAR.
Uses keymap iy-go-to-char-keymap
, which is not currently defined.
Typing key of CHAR will move to the next occurence of CHAR.
Typing iy-go-to-char-key-forward
will move to the next occurence of CHAR.
Typing iy-go-to-char-key-backward
, will move to the previous occurence of CHAR.
Typing M-x iy-go-to-char-quit will quit and return to the original point.
Typing M-x iy-go-to-char-isearch or M-x iy-go-to-char-isearch-backward] will start isearch
using CHAR.
Typing M-x iy-go-to-char-kill-region or M-x iy-go-to-char-kill-ring-save will kill/copy between current point and the start point.
Unless quit using M-x iy-go-to-char-quit or the region is activated before searching, the start point is set as mark.
(iy-go-to-char-backward N CHAR)
Move backward to N occurence of CHAR.
Uses keymap iy-go-to-char-keymap
, which is not currently defined.
Typing key of CHAR will move to the previous occurence of CHAR.
Typing iy-go-to-char-key-forward
moves to the next occurrence of CHAR.
Typing iy-go-to-char-key-backward
, moves to the previous occurrence of CHAR.
Typing M-x iy-go-to-char-quit will quit and return to the original point.
Typing M-x iy-go-to-char-isearch or M-x iy-go-to-char-isearch-backward] will start isearch
using CHAR.
(iy-go-up-to-char N CHAR)
Move forward to N occurrences of CHAR. Like iy-go-to-char
but jump up to the CHAR so it is not included in the region between search start position and current point.
(iy-go-up-to-char-backward N CHAR)
Move backward to N occurrences of CHAR. Like iy-go-to-char-backward
but jump up to the CHAR so it is not included in the region between search start position and current point.
(iy-go-to-or-up-to-continue N &optional STOP-POSITION)
Continue last iy-go-to-char
or iy-go-to-char-backward
by N steps. Set STOP-POSITION
to overwrite the last used stop position strategy.
(iy-go-to-or-up-to-continue-backward N &optional STOP-POSITION)
Continue last iy-go-to-char
or iy-go-to-char-backward
by N steps. Set STOP-POSITION
to overwrite the last used stop position strategy.
(iy-go-to-char-continue N)
Continue last iy-go-to-char
or iy-go-to-char-backward
by N steps.
(iy-go-to-char-continue-backward N)
Continue last iy-go-to-char
