This plugin adds text object support for separated arguments enclosed by brackets.

You can install it using your favorite plugin manager. Here's an example usingvim-plug

Plug 'kana/vim-textobj-user'Plug 'cposture/vim-textobj-argument'

Dependent on another pluginkana/vim-textobj-user, a Vim plugin to create your own text objects without pain

function(a, /*comment*/ b, c)

• With the cursor on the character 'b', typingdaa, would getfunction(a, c), typingdia would getfunction(a, /*comment*/ , c)
• Counts are supported. With the cursor on the character 'a' or before it for example character 'f', typingd2aa or2daa would getfunction(c)
• Move to start of next argument, with the cursor on the character 'a', typing]a, the cursor will move to the 'b' parameter.

Customize the separator, which is, by default, in regular expression format, refer to:help pattern:

let g:argument_separator = ','

Customize the left bracket, which is([ by default, in regular expression format, refer to:help pattern:

let g:argument_left_bracket = '[([]'

Customize the right bracket, which is)] by default, in regular expression format, refer to:help pattern:

let g:argument_right_bracket = '[)]]'

Customize motion mappings, default mappings are described in the following section "Motion commands":

let g:argument_mapping_select_around = 'aa'let g:argument_mapping_select_inside = 'ia'let g:argument_mapping_move_previous = '[a'let g:argument_mapping_move_start = '[A'let g:argument_mapping_move_next = ']a'let g:argument_mapping_move_end = ']A'

Motion commands on text objects are a powerful feature of Vim.

aa - select 'around' argument with separator and comment

ia - select ‘inside’ argument without separator and comment

[a - move to start of previous argument

]a - move to start of next argument

[A - move to first argument

]A - move to last argument
