💤 LazyVim -- customized by osamu

This osamu's starter is a copy and fork of the upstream starter template for LazyVim.

Basic features

Basic idea of this customization is to keep fancy functionalities as opt-in.

I made extra features of 💤 LazyVim disabled when started as much as possible.

• Initial features are controlled in lua/config/options.lua.
• Features can be modified via keymaps starting with <leader>u.

Optional features include.

• autocompletion
• with or without dashboard
• customize statusline w/o clock display
  • unicode code point display in HEX E.g., [+U20].
  • filetype display E.g., [lua].

Install and update

This configuration can be installed for NVIM_APPNAME=nvim1 as:

 $ git clone -b osamu [email protected]:osamuaoki/starter.git ~/.config/nvim1

This configuration can be used by nvim command as:

 $ export NVIM_APPNAME=nvim1
 $ nvim

This osamu branch is the branch which contains my latest forked content and used on my workstation. The configuration has been updated since then. This is mentioned in my previous memos:

• Re-learning Vim (7): LazyVim customization
• Re-learning Vim (10): which-key v3 updates

This is only meant to be my backup configuration. I will mercilessly apply rebase to the latest upstream main branch and force push this branch. (My old settings may be found in other branches.)

In order to track the latest upstream main branch, add following to .git/config file.

[remote "upstream"]
  url = https://github.com/LazyVim/starter
  pushurl = DISABLED_FOR_PUSH
  fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/upstream/*

Then, I will mercilessly rebase "osamu" branch with:

 $ git remote update
 $ git rebase -i upstream/main
 ...
 $ git push -f

UI controls

I added extra key bindings († after corresponding explanations):

• <leader>ua to toggle auto/manual pop-up for autocompletion
• <leader>uM to toggle List Mode
• <leader>uN to set notification timeout
• <leader>uo to set spelloptions ("",camel,noplainbuffer)
• <leader>uS to set signcolumn
• <leader>ut to set tabstop
• <leader>uu as "NOP" to prevent accidental u in Normal mode. (hidden for `which-key)
• <leader>uW to toggle check tailspace
• <leader>uz to set foldcolumn

Search tricks

I kept :set ignorecase and :set smartcase.

• Use regex string with mixed-cases or \C to make search as case sensitive one for nvim internal searches
• Use regex string with \c to force search as case insensitive one for nvim internal searches
• Use regex string with (?-i) as case sensitive one for :gr pattern (backend: rg)
• Use regex string with (?i) as case insensitive one for :gr pattern (backend: rg)

I now commit lazyvim.json to this repo. This records LazyExtras selected packages. (It seems lazy-lock.json is not as critical.)

Quickfix

I now use editor.fzf extension.

Items in Quickfix List can be managed via Telescope with the following keymap:

• <Tab>: Mark item
• <S-Tab>: Un-mark item
• <C-q>: Send all items not marked to quickfixlist (qflist) (C=Select mark-Cleared)
• <M-q>: Send all items marked to quickfixlist (qflist) (M=Marked)

Quickfix list history can be managed via Telescope with the following keymap:

• <leader>xf: Quickfix list (FzfLua)
• <leader>xF: Location list (FzfLua)
• <leader>xh: Quickfix stack (FzfLua)

Notification

• Set notification timeout with <leader>uN. (Currently, it starts with 5000ms)
• Erase notification also with <esc> so long timeout is OK.
• Cool "fade_in_slide_out"

Editorconfig

Text data are modified upon save not only by LSP based Auto Format but also by Editorconfig settings.

Place practically empty ~/.editorconfig to disable for sources without .editorconfig:

root = true

Spellcheck

• <leader>us: spelling (enable/disable)
• <leader>uo: spellingoptions ('',camel,noplainbuffer)

Commenting block of lines

In VISUAL-LINE mode, use gc. (g-prefix is not only for GOTO.).

Terminal

Running mc in terminal window is problematic even with --colors=... ... so I gave up.
