Stealing from Padre for Vim part 3

As promised in my last post, I have released a new version of App::EditorTools and have a number of screenshots of the new functionality. This version includes App::EditorTools::Vim, which provides an easy way to add the vim scripts to integrate the package into Vim.

perl -MApp::EditorTools::Vim -e run > ~/.vim/ftplugin/perl/editortools.vim

And now you should have the following mappings:

  • ,pp - Show a menu of the functions availabe from App::EditorTools
  • ,pL - Lexically rename the variable under the cursor (make sure the cursor is at the start of the variable for now
  • ,pP - Rename the package based on the path of the current buffer
  • ,pI - Introduce a temporary variable

Here are a few screenshots of these actions:

Lexically Rename Variables:
vim-renamevar
Rename Package based on the current file's path:
vim-renamepackage
Introduce Temporary Variable
vim-introtempvar

I'd love to hear feedback and any suggestions for future PPI based tools that Vim, Padre and other editors could leverage.

I also have to note that the editortools-vim script from App::EditorTools was very easy to put together (although it still needs a fair amount of clean-up work and documentation) since is was based on Ricardo's App::Cmd--very easy to use and feature rich.

** Updated 7/5/09 10:37am: moved the screencasts to an external server and fixed some spelling

Great work! But do any of these animated gif screenshots supposed to do anything? Hosting them on blogspot does not work as you may already know.

@Ahmad, if you click on the picture you will see the animated gif - works fine for me at least.

@SolidState Oh. I was using the latest chrome >3.0.190 which has the animated gif not working bug.

Thanks.

I threw together a quick App::EditorTools wrapper for Emacs:
