What is delete-block?
I need an efficient plugin to delete the left and right content of the cursor.
Generally speaking, skip-syntax-forward and skip-syntax-backward can handle forward deletion and backward deletion very well.
But skip-syntax-* unable to handle camel-style word movement, such as just delete Foo part in FooBar word.
So this plugins mix skip-syntax-*' and subword-mode' for better delete block experience.
Installation
Clone or download this repository (path of the folder is the <path-to-delete-block> used below).
In your ~/.emacs, add the following two lines:

(require 'delete-block)Usage
Bind your favorite key to functions:
