Increment decrement number under cursor?
by Antono Vasiljev 06 Sep '11

06 Sep '11

Hello all! First of all, thank you for great Evil! Is it hard to implement increment/decrement number at point? C-a C-x in vim I'm emacs beginner but probably can implement it myself with some mentoring from gurus :) Thanks in advance! -- http://antono.info/ http://twitter.com/antono http://github.com/antono

Swapping "i" and "e" causes "ds" and "cs" to stop working
by York Zhao 05 Sep '11

05 Sep '11

Hi, I found myself using "i" much more than "e" and on dvorak layout the key "e" is more convenient than the key "i", so I swapped the two keys like this: (define-key evil-normal-state-map "i" nil) (define-key evil-normal-state-map "I" nil) (define-key evil-visual-state-map "I" nil) (define-key evil-motion-state-map "e" nil) (define-key evil-motion-state-map "E" nil) (define-key evil-motion-state-map "i" 'evil-forward-word-end) (define-key evil-motion-state-map "I" 'evil-forward-WORD-end) (define-key evil-normal-state-map "e" 'evil-insert) (define-key evil-normal-state-map "E" 'evil-insert-line) (define-key evil-visual-state-map "E" 'evil-insert) However, after doing this, the "ds" and "cs" in "surround" no longer work. I don't understand why this is happenning and whether this is evil's problem or this is a problem is in "surround", or, if I'm doing something wrong. Thanks, York

Feature request: put the mode indicator more on the left
by Alan Schmitt 01 Sep '11

01 Sep '11

Hello, I see that the mode indicator (<V>, <I>, etc) is the last thing on the right of the status bar. Unfortunately, when many minor modes are loaded (typically when doing some latex), the information is not visible. Is there a way to put the mode indicator more on the left? As a related question, is it possible to change the cursor depending on the mode? Thanks, Alan

evil: Input method gets reset when entering insert state
by Sarah Brofeldt 01 Sep '11

01 Sep '11

Hi, I'm a bit new with all things Emacsy, but I think this behavior is undesired: Whenever I enter insert state, my input method is set to default-input-method as if I had hit C-\ Is this intentional? -- Sarah

Commit fdb4f6635351b3f3b15b5e948c39e9efcdd615df causing Emacs to crash for me
by Timothy Harper 25 Aug '11

25 Aug '11

I don't understand why, but this commit: http://gitorious.org/evil/evil/commit/fdb4f6635351b3f3b15b5e948c39e9efcdd61… … has caused emacs to start crashing for me. A video to prove I'm not crazy: http://screencast.com/t/58vWTsW0TTh I'm using Vanilla Emacs for OS X, 23.3, downloaded here: http://emacsformacosx.com/ Crash dump: http://pastie.org/2419689 I'm betting it's an Emacs bug that is being surfaced by that change, because it should not be possible to crash emacs by writing emacs lisp like that.

compilation-mode
by York Zhao 23 Aug '11

23 Aug '11

I suggest moving "compilation-mode" from emacs state to motion state and bind "c" to `recompile' (was "g"). (eval-after-load 'compile '(progn (evil-define-key 'motion compilation-mode-map "c" 'recompile))) At least this has been working greate for me. I also suggest adding command-history-mode and calendar-mode to motion state, how do you guys think? York

The dot Command not able to repeat text inserted by "Auto-complete"
by York Zhao 23 Aug '11

23 Aug '11

Hi, I've been having this problem for a while and it is now my biggest complain to Evil because other than Evil itself, "auto-complete" is the next thing I can't be living without. So, for example after "pri" have been typed, auto-complete gives a candidate menu and I selected the "printf" from the menu, I then hit "RET" and the text "printf" got inserted. I then hit ESC and move the point to somewhere else, I hit "." wanted to get "printf" inserted again but I ended up getting the exact keyboard sequence I had typed which is "pri"+new line. I guess this will not be an "easy" fix so if it will take too much time and there are still more important stuff out there then please just ignore it for now. I'm sorry that at least in the next 5 months I will not be able to contribute things more complicated than or as complicated as "isearch opens and closes hidden text" like I did before, because I'm still new to elisp and is currently under extreme stress from my project at work. Thanks, York

What to do if 'j' and 'k' don't repeat anymore in OS X Lion
by Alan Schmitt 23 Aug '11

23 Aug '11

Hello, I just found about this, and I think it may be of interest to the readers of this list. If you have trouble with 'j' and 'k' not repeating anymore in OS X Lion, it's because of the new "press and hold" behavior for some keys, which results in a popup being displayed offering accented versions of the letter. Unfortunately Aquamacs does not display this popup, yet the repeat is intercepted by the system. To disable this, you need to type the following in a terminal window: defaults write -g ApplePressAndHoldEnabled -bool NO then restart the applications at least once. Best, Alan
