To do so remove =:feature evil= from init.el. Evil-specific configuration and keybindings (defined with ~map!~) will be ignored without evil present (and removed when byte-compiling). + +** Differences from vanilla evil +*** Overview ++ A better ~:g[lobal]~ command with match highlighting ++ ~:al[ign]~: an ex interface to ~align-regexp~ with match highlighting ++ Support for more of vim's filename modifiers in ex commands (like ~:p~, ~:p:h~ or ~:t~) than vanilla evil-mode offers. ++ A list of new text objects: + + Blocks: ~B~ (from ~evil-textobj-anyblock~) + + Args: ~a~ (from ~evil-args~) + + Indentation: ~i~ / ~I~ / ~J~ (from ~evil-indent-plus~) ++ Ported vim plugins: + + ~vim-commentary~ => ~evil-commentary~ + + ~vim-easymotion~ => ~evil-easymotion~ + + ~vim-multiedit~ => ~evil-multiedit~ + + ~vim-multiple-cursors~ => ~evil-mc~ & ~evil-multiedit~ + + ~vim-seek~ or ~vim-sneak~ => ~evil-snipe~ + + ~vim-surround~ => ~evil-embrace~ & ~evil-surround~ ++ =NERDTree= equivalent is available in =:tools neotree= + +*** Multiple-cursors +Two multiple-cursor implementations exist in this module: ~evil-mc~ and ~evil-multiedit~. Together, these provide the functionality of ~vim-multiple-cursors~. + +The former lets you place "clone" cursors. The latter lets you interactively edit many regions from one place (like an interactive version of ~:%s~). + +*** A saner code-folding system +This module combines ~evil-vimish-fold~ (allows arbitrary folds) and ~hideshow~ (folds based on markers and indent) to create a more consistent code-folding system. All the vim folding keys should work (=zr=, =zm=, =za=, =zo=, etc). + +*** Hacks ++ Automatically moves to new window when splitting ++ If in visual mode, =*= and =#= will search for the current selection instead of the word-at-point. + +** Differences from vim ++ Column-wise ranges in ex commands are enabled by default. i.e. the range in =:'<,'>s/a/b= will only affects the visual selection, not full lines (see ~evil-ex-visual-char-range~). ++ =:g= will highlight buffer matches incrementally. +
