viPlugin for Eclipse

Hello,

First the bad news: You will need at least Eclipse 3.1 for this release to work.
Now the good news: This release should fix the strange undo issues!

- 0000498: [vim_compatibility] The undo command doesn't behave like a VI editor should
- 0000507: [editor_integration] Undo "u" stops working correctly using the WTP XML editor
- 0000500: [vim_compatibility] when breaking a line Ctrl-T/Ctrl-D affects the line above the current line
- 0000506: [eclipse_integration] Make vi selection the Eclipse selection for Refactor => Extract Method (Alt-Shift-M)

Hello all,

After doing some stuff yesterday for the viPlugin I had the idea of doing a small screencast series. Let's face it: almost nobody likes to read the User Manual and most people probably don't know how to achieve some of the more hidden features of viPlugin. Therefore I start this little series with a screencast of me activating the CTRL shortcuts (a very frequently asked question).

Watch the screencast here

By the way: viPlugin 1.15.4 should be out this week, focusing on problems with the UndoManager in StructuredTextEditors (PHP, XML, ...) and some CTRL shortcuts not using the viPlugin selection.

Have fun,
Michael

What's new:

- Fixed "The chosen operation is not currently available" bug (happend in Eclipse 3.1 and 3.0)
- Improved the undo behaviour in 3.3 and 3.4Mx

Hello folks,

I've found a way to make the viPlugin selection an Eclipse selection for certain "events". Please report the ones you use, so that I can add them. For now CTRL-I and CTRL-/ works.

What's new:

- 0000329: [eclipse_integration] Visual mode selection doesn't allow a) auto-indentation using Ctrl-I and b) toggle commenting using Ctrl-/. (MBartl)
- 0000266: [Other] With the new highlight feature, ctrl-I doesn't work (MBartl)
- 0000445: [Other] Poor operation when repeating commands (MBartl)
