cw

[1wsx10]

ok so there are two things i have noticed.

thing 1:

 asdf_
^ cursor

cw here will change up to the underscore. default vim cw will change up to the a (it goes up to the word, not to the end of the word)

thing 2:
vims special case for cw (see https://old.reddit.com/r/vim/comments/26nut8/why_does_cw_work_like_ce/)
it would be nice if there was an option for the more canonical version of cw
eg:

asdf (
 ^ cursor

dw here would delete to the (
cw deletes up to (not including) the space, so it's like ce

I fixed this a while back. Try updating the plugin?

[chaoren]

Oh, the cursor is on the space before the a in the first case. Yes, that looks like a bug.

I can't reproduce the second case.

2 is more of a feature request. i'll probably have a look at making a PR at some point.

[1wsx10]

to be clear, what i explained in 2 is also default vim behavior for cw, but it's not consistent with dw or vw or yw etc and it's redundant because ce does the same thing. its just a little annoying when you actually want to change up to the next word, you end up having to do dwi or ct( or something.

[chaoren]

Yes, I know. I specifically reproduced the behavior of cw because people asked for it, so it should be there. You probably have an oudated version of the plugin if that behavior is not happening for you.

It would be elegant if the cpoptions preference for this would be respected

In Vim, this is

set cpoptions-=z

(note: lowercase)

But in Neovim, it's

set cpoptions-=_

Docs:

Vim: https://vimhelp.org/options.txt.html#cpo-z
Neovim: https://neovim.io/doc/user/options.html#cpo-_

Oh yes also, I reproduced your "Thing 1". I'm interested in this issue as a whole.
