A Vim plugin providing operators and textobjects to add, delete, and replace surrounding pairs such as brackets, quotes, and HTML/XML tags. It is built on Vim's operator/textobject framework so actions are repeatable with the dot command.

Use cases

• swap double quotes for single quotes around text in vim
• add brackets around a word in vim
• delete surrounding quotes or parentheses
• replace brackets with HTML tags in vim
• wrap a line in an HTML tag with attributes
• edit HTML and XML tag pairs in vim
• vim-surround alternative with dot-repeat support

When to choose

• you edit bracketed or quoted text frequently in Vim or Neovim
• you need reliable add/delete/replace of HTML or XML tags
• you want vim-surround-like mappings with dot-repeatable operators

When to avoid

• you use an editor other than Vim or Neovim
• you only need minimal surround functionality and prefer a tiny plugin like vim-surround
