A Vim plugin that provides a declarative framework for creating custom text objects. It hides the pitfalls of text object implementation, letting users define objects via regex patterns or functions.
Use cases
- define custom vim text objects
- create text object for dates or times in vim
- make a text object for LaTeX \left( \right) pairs
- define filetype-specific text objects in vim
- select custom delimited regions in vim
When to choose
- you want to write your own Vim text objects without handling low-level details
- you need regex-based or function-based custom motions
- you're building a Vim text object plugin
When to avoid
- you just want pre-made text objects (this plugin provides none itself)
- you use Neovim and prefer Lua-native approaches
- you need an actively developed project with a license file
