[implementations-list] vim-mode 0.0.1

Tue Jul 14 22:38:49 CEST 2009

Hi frank, when I try to use vim-mode and I press ctrl-x ctrl-f I get a "let:
Symbol's function definition is void: viper-event-key" error. I think it has
to do with you reusing some viper function.
Cheers,
Alessandro

> The core of the implementation is quite usable and many aspects do
> already work.  The following parts are ready:
>
>  - keymap subsystem,
>  - motion subsystem (including text-objects),
>  - command and operator (commands with motion) subsystem,
>  - easy definition of new commands, motions and mappings,
>  - vim-like mapping of commands to other commands,
>  - normal-mode,
>  - insert-mode,
>  - replace-mode,
>  - visual-mode (character-wise, line-wise, block-wise),
>  - undo/redo,
>  - repeat.
>
> The following parts are NOT implemented yet:
>
>  - marks,
>  - registers,
>  - ex-mode,
>  - many motions (especially text-objects, word-motions, searching),
>  - some commands,
>  - scrolling/window commands,
>  - good Emacs integration (global minor-mode?),
>  - XEmacs compatibility (mainly keymap subsystem and visual-mode).
>
> The most urgent things to be implemented are Emacs integration and the
> missing but frequently used motions and commands.  Both aspects should
> not be very difficult but, well, need some coding :)

> Feel free to send comments, bug-reports, patches ...
