XVim

XVim is a Vim plugin for Xcode. The plugin intends to offer a compelling Vim experience without the need to give up any Xcode features.

Announcement

Finally we are really pleased to announce release of XVim v1.0 alpha version. The main improvements include

  • Visual block (Ctrl-v)
  • Marks supporting jumping between files
  • More accurate operation on registers
  • More stable recording and execution
  • Automatic testing system (for developers)
  • hlsearch
  • and more...

See Documents/Users/FeatureList.md for all the features.

Unfortunately current master branch is not stable compared to the master branch which has been developed since I started this project. The old branch is saved with a tag name "v0.1". You can get the source code from "Releases" in the github page.

Support Xcode Versions

We are developing XVim with Xcode 4.6 at the moment, So we recommend you use XVim with XCode 4.6. Xcode5 will be supported. Current master branch does not work with Xcode5.

INSTALL

  • Download source code(of one of releases) and open XVim.xcodeproj with Xcode.
  • Go to "Edit Scheme" and set "Build Configuration" as "Release"
  • (You may need to set "Base SDK" value in Build Settings to "Latest OS X")
  • Build it. It automatically installs the plugin into the correct directory.
  • Restart Xcode. (Make it sure that Xcode proccess is terminated entirely)

Releases

See releases in github. There are explanations for each releases. Use appropreate one.

Uninstall

Delete the following directory:

$HOME/Library/Application\ Support/Developer/Shared/Xcode/Plug-ins/XVim.xcplugin

Feature list

See separate FeatureList.md

Bug reports

Unfortunately XVim sometimes crashes Xcode. We are working on eliminating all the bugs, but it's really hard work. It helps greatly when we have your bug reports, with the following information:

  • Crash information ( Xcode shows threads stack trace when crashes. Copy them. )
  • The operations you did to cause the crash ( series of key strokes or mouse clicks )
  • The text you were manipulating
  • Xcode version
  • XVim version ( Version number of the revision you built )

We appreciate if you write test case for the bug. Read "Write test" section in Documents/Developsers/PullRequest.md how to write test case. You do not need to update any source code but just write 7 items explained there in an issue you create.

Contributions

Any suggestions, bug reports or feature requests are welcome. Any pull requests are very much appreciated. Before you make pull request see Documents/Developers/PullRequest.md

Donations

If you think the plugin is useful, please donate. Since I do not intend make money from this project, I am directing donations to the people suffering from the damage of the 2011 Tohoku earthquake and tsunami in Japan.

Please donate directly through the Paypal donation site below, as this will put more money to good use by reducing the transfer fee.
