0.74.0 Released You guys just won't let this project die. It's been well over a year since our last release but people still submit issues and code changes. We just recently found an issue in the current version of Eclipse which causes lots of headaches for anyone with an ALT_GR key. This issue seemed drastic enough to justify another stable release. This new version includes all code changes submitted in the 20 months since 0.72.0. Changes since 0.72.0 are: Fixed issues with ALT_GR handling

Fixed behavior of '%' when cursor is on EOL

Fixed newline replacement when using :g/[pattern]/s/^/...

Fixed mode indicator when using dark theme

Fixed issue with pasting a register from visual-block mode

Fixed issue with recursive mapping loop detection

Fixed potential stack overflow when setting caret location

Fixed ':marks' to include marks from closed files

Fixed issue with '//' to repeat last search (rather than just '/')

Fixed infinite loop with sneak plugin when the first characters of a file matched search string

Added support for <c-home> and <c-end> to go to first, last character of file

Added ':set spell' command

Added '"%' register to get current filename

Added ability to escape '\%' when using ':r!'

Added support for counts when manipulating camelCase objects

0.72.0 Released This project has been quiet for a while. We only have 2 main developers and neither of us use Eclipse in our daily job anymore. But, people are still submitting Pull Requests so I'll keep merging them in and doing releases as long as people are still interested. Changes since 0.70.0 are: Added a port of justinmk's Sneak plugin

Added ability to set custom .vrapperrc location with `vrapper.vrapperrc` system property

Added ability to map eclipse motions with <Plug>()

Added support for `:delmarks` command

Added `:se` shortcut for `:set` command

0.70.0 Released This is a very small release and I probably could've just waited longer until there were more changes worth releasing, but I think it's good to have a reliable release cycle and we've been doing two-month releases for awhile now. Of course I rushed out 0.68.1 a little more than a month ago and we've only had two changes since then. So I do 0.xx.0 releases every two months and 0.xx.1 releases when needed. It makes sense to me at least. Anyway, these are the only changes between 0.68.1 and 0.70.0: Fixed behavior when one custom mapping is a subset of another custom mapping

Fixed behavior in subword text object plugin when cursor is on word boundary

0.68.1 Released We had a regression in the 0.68.0 release and I debated whether it was critical enough to release a 0.68.1 to fix it. The defect isn't major but it's in a common enough feature ('*' and '#') that a lot of people have noticed it. Given that Eclipse Neon was just released, I'm guessing a lot of people will be re-installing the current stable build of Vrapper with it. I figured it's best to have a solid release for those people. So here's a quick release with a couple issues we've fixed in the last month. They are: Fixed regression where '*' and '#' behaved like 'g*' and 'g#'

Fixed stupid mistake which prevented you from setting <leader> in .vrapperrc

Fixed issue with Vrapper resetting an Eclipse selection when using 'select all'

Fixed regression which broke the ':set <option>?' feature to display value

Changed cycle plugin so cursor stays at beginning of changed word

0.68.0 Released I was able to find some time this month to work on new Vrapper features, including some plugin requests that have been sitting around for a while. Of course, this project is so mature now that we're looking at the more obscure features in Vim but all of these were requested by users filing Issues on our GitHub page. We hope you continue to enjoy Vrapper! Fixed issue where recording a macro would overwrite the unnamed register

Fixed issue executing a macro with a count

Fixed issue where `*` search wasn't using iskeyword value to determine word boundaries

Fixed sentence motions '( )' and text object `s` when sentence ends on a newline Added support for Mac command key mappings `<D-`

Added support for `%` to jump between block comment `/* */` tokens

Added support for `\%V` in command-line substitutions and search for limiting to visually selected area

useful when selection isn't line-based

Added support for `\k` regex class for iskeyword value

Added support for searching from command-line (ex) mode `:/` and `:?`

Added support for `<Leader>` and `:let mapleader=`

Added support for comment text objects `ic`/`ac` and `iC`/`aC`

supports single line comments `//`, `#`, `--`



supports block comments `/* */`, `<!-- -->`



See this comment for more details Created a new optional plugin for sub-word motions

Moves over words within snake_case and camelCase names



Based loosely on https://github.com/bkad/CamelCaseMotion



Details here: Sub-Word Plugin



Convenience command `:subwordmappings` will setup default mappings:

map \b <Plug>(subword-back)

map \e <Plug>(subword-end)

map \w <Plug>(subword-word)

map i\ <Plug>(subword-inner)

map a\ <Plug>(subword-outer) Created a new optional plugin to "cycle" through word replacements

Based on https://github.com/zef/vim-cycle



Details here: Cycle Plugin



`<C-a>`/`<C-x>` will replace word under cursor with next item in cycle



`:AddCycleGroup foo bar baz` = foo->bar->baz->foo->...



Default cycle true->false will toggle "true" to "false" with a single keystroke

0.66.0 Released This new release of Vrapper is pretty sizable. We received some great help in the form of Pull Requests. Thank you to all our users and contributors keeping this project going! Added support for Doxygen (//!) and C# (///) comments in `gq` command

Added support for 'is'/'as' sentence text object

Added support for <C-n> and <C-p> in Line Completion mode

Added '%' expansion to filename when using ':!' shell command

Add mapping for <C-w>_q to close current tab

Fixed g_<C-g> to match Vim output (rather than Vrapper debug info)

Fixed intermittent issue causing NullPointerExceptions when switching tabs

Fixed issue where a macro didn't have a single atomic undo

Fixed issue where :normal command didn't have a single atomic undo

Changed behavior to prevent recursive macros from executing

Fixed issue where deleting after yanking text to a register would clobber the register

Fixed issue with Position Categories which could render editor unusable

Fixed issue where setting 'let @x=""' in .vrapperrc would clobber that register every time a new file was opened

Fixed inconsistencies in Line Completion mode (<C-x><C-l>)

Fixed issue using a visual selection with the Surround plugin

Fixed issue with Vrapper interacting with JasperSoft Studio

Shift-Arrow keys now enter Visual mode

Disable Eclipse's Overwrite mode if the user hits the 'Insert' key

0.64.0 Released This new release of Vrapper only has a couple defect fixes but they're important fixes. One defect could create an infinite re-paint loop (crashing Eclipse) and another broke Vrapper in older (< 3.7) versions of Eclipse. Both of those defects are fixed! Fixed issue causing an infinite loop when performing an Eclipse refactor

Fixed issue preventing Vrapper from working in older versions of Eclipse (< 3.7)

Fixed issue where confirm substitution wouldn't open folds

Fixed issue where setting register contents with 'let @' wouldn't allow '=' character

Fixed issue with entering search mode on the last line of a file when that line is empty

0.62.0 Released Time for another Vrapper release. Some great progress was made in the last two months fixing older defects that have been around for a while. There was also a lot of general refactoring to cleanup the code and fix certain little annoyances. Hope everyone enjoys this new release! Added support for 'o' and 'O' in visual block mode

Added support for g_CTRL-G to display cursor position info

Fixed issue where a bad regex pattern could crash a Vrapper instance

Fixed issue where pressing DELETE in visual mode wouldn't delete

Fixed issue when multiple possible mappings are pending

Fixed issue with multi-page editors in ABAP Development Tools

Fixed error when using Vrapper with Eclipse Overview plugin

Fixed corner case where 'gv' wasn't restoring the correct selection

Fixed corner case related to executing a mapping after Eclipse auto-completed a set of parentheses

Refactored some code to remove hacks for drawing the cursor

Refactored code around visual block mode

Refactored command-line parsing so multiple spaces can appear between certain commands and their arguments

0.60.0 Released It's been another two months so I'm releasing our current changes. Development is still moving slowly, but it's moving forward. Albertdev did a bunch of refactoring to clean up some code under the hood. The work wasn't related to any specific defect but a lot of the commands should be more stable. Here are the changes I can describe: Added support for 'wrapscan' setting

We now determine certain default values based on Eclipse settings

tabstop, expandtab, newline type, etc.

Fixed intermittent display issue with dark themes

Fixed issue with 'gq' counting a tab character as one column

Massive refactoring of many line-based and :ex commands
