Changes

jVi-1.4 Release, NB7.x only

• [#163] Tag text objects not working?
  Failed with certain option combinations.
• [#170] Caret not visible on retina display
  Added an option, "Mac Retina Cursor Xor Bug" in platform category.

• [#3577401] Can't move/copy lines before line 1
• [#3576622] ampersand not working for repeating last :s command

• fix mapping of ":" commands.
• [#3527153] MAC/OSX ESC to exit search leaves editor in an unusable state

NetBeans 7.1 Bug 205835 can lose edits; a variety of jVi commands run into this. jVi-1.4.5 disables itself if it detects module versions with the bug, AFAICT. The bug is scheduled to be fixed in NB-7.1.1; sometime around January/February.

jVi-1.4.5 works as expected on NB-7.0

jVi Core

• :set command supports almost all options. Use :set all to see options; command output is now multi column.
• Different cursor used in readonly and/or not focused windows.
  • Draw caret as empty rectangle when editor not focused.
  • Draw caret as emphasized empty rectangle when focused editor is read only. For example the left side of diff
  • Add platform option, rocursorcolor/rocc, for color of cursor in read only editor; works with :set.

jVi NetBeans KeyBindings

• Entering key mappings in Options dialog uses jVi editor bindings.
• Give warning if fonts are not all the same size.

Bug fixes

• [#3408923] Search Wrap Message never goes away
  Be more vim-like and always display search pattern; fixes issue.
• Fix various issues around wrap and folding for cursor positioning and view related navigation commands: H, M, L, zt, zz and zb.
• Fix some issues with non-modal command line entry.

Window split, resize and move are the big features. This is an accurate implementation with lots of the commands and options. The :split and :vsplit commands can do file name completion for a #digit argument.

jVi Core

• Implement input mode Ctrl-G u
  break undo sequence, start a new change
• Handle optional count on gt and gT commands.
• [#3304144] smartcase option support
• With :g command, handle vi/vim undocumented pattern selection feature. :g\/ and :g\? use the last search pattern and :g\& uses the last substitute pattern.

jVi NetBeans KeyBindings

• Implement window resizing commands along with the 'equalalways', 'splitbelow' and 'splitright' options.
  Ctrl-W =, Ctrl-W -, Ctrl-W _, Ctrl-W Ctrl-_, Ctrl-W <, Ctrl-W > and Ctrl-W |.
• :split and :vsplit implemented.
  Note that they take an optional #number and works with Ctrl-space/Ctrl-D file name completion.
• Window split commands fixed from 1.4.1 to really do a split
  The split commands, such as Ctrl-W s and Ctrl-W v, split the current editor; The command accepts a count to specify the size of the new editor.
  
  To put a copy of an editor in a neighboring area (similar to 1.4.1 behavior), create a clone and move it. For example, to make a clone/copy of an editor in an existing area to the left, do something like Ctrl-W Ctrl-T Ctrl-W H.
  I map Ctrl-W <Left> to that sequence.
• window move commands changed from 1.4.1 if not a target area in the direction
  When there is not a target in the direction, the move commands, such as Ctrl-W H, create a new area.

jVi Core

• Map commands additional features
  • Multiple character {lhs} mappings
  • insert mode mappings
  • 'timeout' and 'timeoutlen'
  • no ambiguous mappings
• Update Ctrl-W [hjkl] type of commands to more recent vim behavior "Uses the cursor position to select between alternatives".

jVi NetBeans KeyBindings

• Ctrl-W S, Ctrl-W s, Ctrl-W Ctrl-S, Ctrl-W v, Ctrl-W Ctrl-V,
  The feel is like vim's split a window. Currently there must be a neighboring target for the newly created editor. In the future a target will be created when needed (needs NB support).
• Ctrl-W H, Ctrl-W J, Ctrl-W K, Ctrl-W L
  move the current editor in the direction.
  Note: there must be somewhere for the editor to go.
• Ctrl-W T and :clon[e] like NB's Clone Document
• :tog[gle] working again.
• :organizeimports and :fixiorganizeimports that work with the Organize Imports plugin. The :fixio form first does fix imports.

Bug fixes

• [#3298660] multi-line substitute with new lines, like %s/;/{\n\n}\n/, messes up
• [#3293348] jump to line number via :<digit> fails if command completion

This is the final 1.3.1 release renamed; first release since 1.2.
Lots of new features; major source code refactoring to simplify embedding jVi.

jVi Core

• handle line wrap; also handle long lines better
  • :set options: wrap and linebreak
  • Various commands for a line wrap environment, including gj, gk, g$, g0, g^, gm
  • horizontal scroll commands: zl, z<Right>, zL, zh, z<Left>, zH, zs and ze
• :set list
• [#2019611] map commands; User define key binding in Normal mode
  [nvop]map, [nvop]noremap, [nvop]unmap
  "Options>Map Commands" for persited mappings. Also work as colon commands.
  Current mappings are displayed with :[nvop]map and :[nvop]map {lhs}.
  See jVi help files, map.txt.
  Note: "p" mode mappings are jVi only.
  The :pmap, :pnoremap and :punmap commands are normal mode mappings which are active in PLATFORM-SELECTION state. Selecting text with the mouse produces a platform selection.
• [#2777608] Multiple-editor pane support (Ctrl-w)
  A more accurate implementation of Ctrl-W window traversal commands, e.g. left/right/up/down. Almost all of the several traversal commands are implemented.
  See jVi help files, windows.txt. All jVi editors, such as visual diff and expression evaluator, are included.
• [#2825295] yank/put/delete Actions on the closed fold at the cursor
  Most actions on folds work, for example >>.
  Actions on visual mode selections involving folds also implemented.
• Persist history for search and command entry, along with values for marks, filemarks and registers.
  They persist when the program exits normally.
• [#3001654] Ability to use line breaks with substitute command
  Implementation allows '\r' in the replacement text. '\n' is also allowed and maps to newline (not NULL char into doc).
• Added gJ and g~ commands
• Add :vglobal and :global! commands.
• set command
  • Implement :set operations: +=, -= and ^=. (useful with 'isk')
  • Implement set {option}& to set option to default value
  • :set only display settable options that differ from their default. Use :set all to see all settable options
• [#3166782] iskeyword or skip to underscore?
  add option: 'iskeyword' 'isk'
  This is a per buffer option. It works with :set iskeyword=xxx and modeline
• add option: blinkrate
• :set scroll=0 accepted to reset to half window height
• [#2977160] :set wrapscan command
• In jVi options dialog, each option displays default value
• [#3054372] Make :u Perform Undo Operation
  Add both :undo and :redo
• Ctrl-G in visual line mode does full line java text selections. Note that this changes the jVi start-end of the current visual bounds.

jVi NetBeans KeyBindings

• Colon Command Name Completion
  During ":" command line entry Ctrl-Space or Ctrl-D bring up a completion list.
• use the NetBeans REUSE flag for tag stack operations, for example Ctrl-] and Ctrl-T. This means that several operations in a row will share the same editor window. Use the :pin command to prevent a file from being replaced.
• :pin to clear editor REUSE flag. The red push pin, "Editor Pin", on toolbar is active when the currently selected editor is REUSEable.

Bug fixes

• Navigation in long lines and around line wrapping.
  Don't keep messing up horizontal scroll position.
• [#3280820] exit ": mode" on BS on empty line
• [#3271587] jvi Icon doesn't update
• [#3273859] undo bug with @ (execute register contents)
• [#3280820] exit ": mode" on BS on empty line
• [#3258663] clipboard option doesn't work
• [#3018062] Ranges don't work with ":global"
  Also fixed the ":global" command so that if matching lines are deleted, there is no attempt to operate on them.
  In particular, something like :g/pattern/d 5 does the right thing.
• Fix [/ and [* when "/*" starts in column 0
• [#3074904] Cursor Position off by one when jVi turned off
• Handle insert mode Ctrl-W and Ctrl-U properly for '.' redo command.
• [#3196343] ggVG= throws exception
• fixes for commands for line wrap like up,down,^D,^U,^F,^B,H,M,L
• [#3093239] cursor backspaces when jVi turned off
• [#3032783] Wrong cursor after search
• [#3006347] IllegalStateException when executing ":e!"
• [#2925219] Nullpointer exception

jVi-1.3 development

This is renamed and summarized as jVi-1.4.

jVi-1.2 released

jVi Core

• [#2832400] Xml/Html Tag text-object
• [#1829295] [ ] Brace/paren/other navigation. Implemented: [m, ]m, [M, ]M, [{, [(, ]}, ]), [/, [*, ]/, ]*, [#, ]#, [[, [], ]], ][
• [#2833497] Save macros. Persist named yank/put registers/buffers, e.g. "a, between sessions. (only if size under 1K)
• Implement filemarks, aka upper case marks, like mA and 'A; also :marks and :delm[arks] commands. Support ^ mark. Persist filemarks and per buffer marks between sessions. General option to control max number of persisted buffer-marks.
• [#2929586] :[range]< command missing Implement shift [range] lines one 'shiftwidth' left. Repeat '<' for shifting multiple 'shiftwidth's.
• platform option so initial verion output does not bring up output window

jVi NetBeans KeyBindings

• [#2931204] code formatting in visual mode in NB 6.8 Hook 'Q' and 'gq' commands to NetBeans' reformat action.
• In input mode put TAB character directly into file (assuming 'noet' and other options call for it), unles 'usePlatformTab' option is set

Bug fixes

• Cleanup visual mode when option 'selection' is "exclusive".
• [#2922216] The options panel is so wide ...
• [#2865050] cw, change word, command and accented chars
• [#2936394] mouse-drive selection not taking last character on the line
• don't open output window unlesss p (as in g//s///p) is used
• fix cursor positoning for z commands with partially full screens
• fix bug in execution of :make command (NB)
• tweak code that prevents visible clone editor from scrolling for nb6.8.
• [#2922313] exception: didDocRemoveAfterTrackPosition

jVi Core

• In visual mode, Ctrl-G converts visual bounds to java text selection. Allows IDE/platform commands to operate on it.
  <ESC> clears a java text selection.
• [#2805922] Please implement softtabstop option. A per buffer option, works with modeline. This change also implements most (all?) of the vim logic related to expandtabs rather than passing it off to the platform. When 'et' is false and 'sts' true, neighboring spaces are coelesced into tabs; when 'et' true and 'sts' true, a backspace may remove multiple spaces. See vim's doc.
• [#2779250] i_ctrl-a (insert mode command) Also implement i_ctrl-@.
• [#1726929] i_CTRL_R to paste buffer content including the i_Ctrl-R sub-commands.

jVi NetBeans KeyBindings

• [#2777608] Multiple-editor pane support (Ctrl-w) Only a partial fix.
  Ctrl-W_Ctrl-W An imperfect implementation: cycles in arbitrary, but fixed, order.
  There are no commands that create windows; that requires some NetBeans API work, at a minimum see add attachTopComponentToSide method to WindowManager.
  NOTE: Users may want to reprogram NetBeans' "Close Window" shortcuts from Ctrl-W and Ctrl-F4 to Ctrl-W_c and Ctrl-W_Ctrl-C for consistency and to avoid accidental window closing.
• :only, Ctrl-W_Ctrl-O
• Ctrl-W_Ctrl-E and Ctrl-W_e {not in vim} These commands are similar to Ctrl-W_Ctrl-W, except that they cycle through visible editors that do not have an associated file. In a debug situation, with the expression evaluator visible, this command typically changes focus to the expression evaluator window.
• Hook jVi into Tools>Options Export and Import dialog

Bug fixes

• [#2816171] NB6.7 empty file bottom not supported
• Clean up and fix some problems with "magic-redo" (gets '.' to work better after code completion).

• properly set '[ and '] after delete lines and avoid a stack dump.
• listen to jVi option changes from displayed property sheets.
• Fix when moving position offscreen. If target within half a screen then target at top/bottom of view; like a scroll to target, rather than target at center of view.

Bug fixes

This release has the single most requested feature and biggest jVi core development effort since jVi was introduced over 5 years ago; thanks to Roy van der Kuil Visual Mode is now available. Tag stack also available.

jVi Core

• [#1678712] Visual mode: v V '< '> `< `>
  thanks to Roy van der Kuil. (not visual block yet, but on the way)
• [#424678 ] sentence and paragraph motions: { } ( )
  thanks to Jose Alburquerque.

• :set [no]ic NPE (bitten by a last minute change)
• z<ENTER> did nothing except beep.
• [#1695646] shift-O on first line of file is broken
• Status display fix: don't loose "red" in messages.
• Avoid doing bogus searches associated with incremtental search.
• Fix some NB6 issues

These are the changes since the snapshot release 0.8.0 which was made available mid February.
Incremental search and :set are my favorites.

jVi NetBeans KeyBindings

• jVi keybindings attach to any file type.
• Use Tools > jVi menu checkbox to enable/disable jVi.
• Can bind jVi-enable toggle to a shortcut. In Tools > Options > keymap, open the Tools folder, bind jVi.
• jVi install does not require NB restart.
• :n, :N, :prev traverses the MRU list, use :ls to see list.
• Advanced Options modifications to jVi KeyBindings effective immeadiately. No restart required.
• Simplify StatusBar interface/ui.
• showcmd and showmode are now options.

jVi Core

• Incremental search. Not particularly efficient, quite the opposite.
• A few :set commands: ignorecase, incsearch, number, tabstop, shiftwidth and expandtabs See Colon Commands and NetBeans options information.
• Added gg normal command.
• m< and m> mark the current line before jumping so the '' returns. (Like doing m').
• Ctrl-< and Ctrl-> will catch first non blank in a line.
• In [count]<op>{motion}, when {motion} was a search like /foo, the <op> was ignored. So now stuff like y/foo and 3d/one work.

Bugs fixed

• [#1665143] With JDK1.5, search not possible in netbeans JVI editor
• [#780967] Ctrl-E and Ctrl-Y
• Searching and Options work with JDK1.5.
• keypad keys and other non-characters no longer go into the file, they kick you out of input mode.
• An assert would fire if options brought up before init'd.
• '.' with input mode dump'd stacktrace (not an exception)
• Various other exceptions

Bugs fixed

• [#597899] :make and :build broken in JB7
• [#598501] % brace matching broken in JBuilder 7

New features

• Works with JBuidler 7 only. Use 0.6.6 for earlier versions.

Bugs fixed

• [#564025] Will not load in JBuilder 7

New features

• undo/redo handling now matches vim; the action always causes a change, never just cursor movement. The JBuilder/swing behavior is available as an option.
• :s command with no args repeats last substitute command.

Bugs fixed

• [#520480] more Read-only problems. Handling switch between writable/read-only.
• [#520481] Can't "put" at the end of a file.
• Show '?' in search command entry for backwards search.

Bugs fixed

• [#212530] Some commands fail on read-only files

  jVi, when running under JBuilder, now has an option to work around this jdk1.3 issue. The problem is that if JEditorPane.isEditable() is false, then KEY_TYPED events are not delivered to the application. Stuff like '^D' still gets through, but normal asci does not.

  The fix involves changing 'isEditable()' while the window is the currently active editor. This behavior, which defaults on, can be turned off with the 'hack read-only' option in the 'Editor' tab of the 'EditorOptions' dialog.

Bugs fixed

• [ #456635 ] Indent ending curly brace with JBuilder5, JBuilder6
• [ #494586 ] Keystrokes not processed in JBuilder 6, Code Insight
• [ #484417 ] Installation

Bugs fixed

• 132312: "*" search command can freeze editor
  This was introduced in the last release. Failed only under certain conditions. Some commands, as well as searching, may be affected.

Bugs fixed

• 107566: "/" or ":" dialog doesn't get focus
  With some combinations of jdk/window-managers, on some unix systems, including linix, the dialogs used for entering ":" commands and search patterns would not get the focus when they poped up. This workaround puts the input field on the glass pane rather than using a seperate frame.
  
  Thanks to Keith Gaddis for this fix.
  
  Under JBuilder4 the old behavior, modal frame, can be selected. It is a misc boolean option. After making the selection JBuilder must be restarted for the change to take effect.

New features

• JBuilder: ":e" commands, e.g. ":e#" or ":e -3", now works with .class files

Bugs fixed

• 117287: Does jVi support special, e.g. french, characters?
  In insert mode control characters and others are no longer filtered out. Any and all unicode characters that are received are inserted into the file (except zero).
• 116560: JBuilder: Renaming open file renders editor useless

New features

• JBuilder4 supported
• JBuilder4 only: if Cosmetics open tool is loaded, then there is a command ":tog[gle] tab[s]".

Bugs fixed

• 113802: ":0" command should go to first line
• 114281: JBuilder: in insert mode if the user enters a tab character the UseTabs Option should be followed. See Bug Report for details.

New features

• :delete command
• :global command
  :global/pattern/command
  only commands substitute, print and delete one line are supported.
• print flag supported by substitute command
• In insert mode, Ctrl-',' and Ctrl-'.' (think of them as Ctrl-'<' and Ctrl-'>') indent line left/right so first character of line is after '(' in previous line. Useful for aligning arguments of function call.

Bugs fixed

• 108836: With gnu.regex the end of line anchor, "$", doesn't work.
• 109242: up/down arrow sometimes goes to wrong column position.
• JBuilder: tab in insert mode now inserts a tab character (not shiftwidth) unless smart tab option is set
• JBuidler: "o" command would sometimes (after replace mode) forget to insert a new line

Notes

• In JBuilder the results of "print" from :s///p and :g//p, go to the search tab.

Thanks to Jeff Kreska for all the bug reports!

New features

• substitute command
  :[<addr>[,<addr>]]s[ubstitute]/pattern/replacement/[g]
• JBuilder: Keep focus in source editor after ":q" or ":close"
• 107684: status/error messages cleared after a scroll
• Scrolloff configuration variable is implemented
• GNU regexp package support

Bugs fixed

• 107919: Bind 'CTRL-[' to escape
• no more micro-scrolling
• 108062: Pressing CTRL-F or <pgdown> when close to EOF causes redraw problems
• 106829: JBuilder: searching broken if no third party regular expression package in application's classpath
• 106947: window redraw is screwed up if last line deleted

Differences and notes

• JBuilder: when CodeInsight is dismissed with the escape key and jVi is in input mode, jVi goes into command mode.
• JBuidler: If the browser window is sized so that the toolbar wraps onto multiple lines then messages will usually be lost.
