Just some little things I source in my vimrc. Moving these from the voidrice repo for extensibility's sake. Mostly language-related.
A script modeled off one on the vim wiki by Max Baker, but with more deadkeys and a toggling command.
This gives you a function ToggleDeadKeys() that will, as its name suggest, make ', ", ~ and : into keys that can be combined with other letters to give you accents, specifically:
- ' gives you acute accents (á)
- ` gives you grave accents (à)
- ^ gives you circumflex accents (â)
- ~ gives you tildes (ã)
- : gives you macrons (ā)
- " gives you umlauts (ä)
- . gives you under dot (ḍ)
- , gives you cedilla (ç)
These will all work with most vowels and some consonants if the combination is commonly used.
Adjustable bindings for International Phonetic Alphabet characters. Can be toggled with ToggleIPA().
A prose mode.
Install with your vim plugin manager, then manually assign the functions to what you want in your ~/.vimrc. Examples:
nm <leader><leader>d :call ToggleDeadKeys()<CR>
imap <leader><leader>d <esc>:call ToggleDeadKeys()<CR>a
nm <leader><leader>i :call ToggleIPA()<CR>
imap <leader><leader>i <esc>:call ToggleIPA()<CR>a
nm <F8> :call ToggleProse()<CR>
