vim-quotable

“Extending Vim to better support typographic (‘curly’) quote characters.”

While Vim is renown for its text manipulation capabilities, it nevertheless
retains a bias towards ASCII that stretches back to its vi roots on Unix. This
can limit Vim’s appeal for those who prefer typographic characters like “curly
quotes” over ASCII "straight quotes" in the prose and documentation they write.

Features of this plugin:

• Automatic entry of ‘typographic quotes’ from the 'straight quote' keys
• Motion support for typographic quote pairs
• Matchit % matching for typographic quote pairs
• User can define alternative typographic quote pairs
• Replace quotes in existing text, including entire buffer
• Support for the [vim-surround][] plugin

Requirements

Requires a recent version of Vim compiled with Unicode support.

Installation

Install using Pathogen, Vundle, Neobundle, or your favorite Vim package
manager.

Strongly recommended - To support typographic quotes as text objects, the
following dependency should be installed.

• kana/vim-textobject-user - a Vim plugin to create your own text objects without pain

Configuration

Because you won't want typographic quotes in your code, the behavior of this
plugin can be configured per file type. For example, to enable typographic
quote support in markdown and textile files, place in your .vimrc:

" standard vim command to enable loading the plugin files 
" (and their indent support) for specific file types.
" It may already be in your .vimrc!
filetype plugin indent on

augroup quotable
  autocmd!
  autocmd FileType markdown call quotable#init()
  autocmd FileType textile call quotable#init()
  autocmd FileType python call quotable#init({ 'educate': 0 })
augroup END

The last statement initializes the plugin for buffers of python file type, but
disables the ‘educate’ feature by default. More on that below.

Educating straight quotes

This plugin will ‘educate’ quotes, meaning that it will dynamically transform
straight quote key presses (" or ') into corresponding typographic quote
characters.

For example, entering the following sentence without this plugin using the
straight quote keys:

"It's Dr. Evil. I didn't spend six years in Evil Medical School to be called 'mister,'
thank you very much."

As expected all the quotes are straight ones. But with this plugin, the
straight quotes are transformed into the typographic equivalent as you
type:

“It’s Dr. Evil. I didn’t spend six years in Evil Medical School to be called ‘mister,’
thank you very much.”

Entering straight quotes

In some cases, straight (ASCII) quotes are needed, such as:

“print "Hello World!"” is a simple program you can write in Python.

To insert a straight quote while educating, enter «Ctrl-V» before the quote key:

• «Ctrl-V» " - straight double quote
• «Ctrl-V» ' - straight single quote

Note that for units of measurement you’ll want to use the prime symbol rather
than straight quotes, as in:

Standing at 7′3″ (2.21 m), Hasheem Thabeet of the Oklahoma City Thunder is the tallest
player in the NBA.

Commands

You can enable (or toggle) the educating behavior with the following
commands:

QuotableEducateOn
QuotableEducateOff
QuotableEducateToggle

QuotableEducateOn will map the quote keys for transformation. Or better yet,
map to keys via your .vimrc:

nmap <silent> <leader>q1 :QuotableEducateOn<cr>
nmap <silent> <leader>q0 :QuotableEducateOff<cr>
nmap <silent> <leader>qq :QuotableEducateToggle<cr>

Motion commands

Motion commands are a powerful feature of Vim.

By default, for motion commands, q denotes “double” quotes and Q denotes
‘single’ quotes.

• ciq - [Change Inside “double” quotes] - excludes quote chars
• ciQ - [Change Inside ‘single’ quotes] - excludes quote chars
• caq - [Change Around “double” quotes] - includes quote chars
• caQ - [Change Around ‘single’ quotes] - includes quote chars

Apart from c for change, you can v for visual selection, d for deletion,
y for yanking to clipboard, etc.

_Quotable_’s motion command is smart too, able to distinguish between an
apostrophe and single closing quote, even though both are represented by
the same glyph. For example, try out viQ on the following sentence:

‘Really, I’d rather not relive the ’70s,’ said zombie Elvis.

If you don’t like the defaults, you can redefine these by adding the following
to your .vimrc, changing the motion characters as you desire:

let g:quotable#doubleMotion = 'q'
let g:quotable#singleMotion = 'Q'

Matchit support

Matchit enables jumping to matching quotes.

• % - jump to the matching typographic (curly) quote character

Replace support

You can replace straight quotes in existing text with curly quotes, and
visa versa. Add key mappings of your choice to your .vimrc:

map <silent> <leader>qc <Plug>QuotableReplaceWithCurly
map <silent> <leader>qs <Plug>QuotableReplaceWithStraight

Both Normal and Visual modes are supported by this feature.

To transform all quotes in a document, use Visual mode to select all the
text in the document.

Surround support

This plugin supports basic surround capabilities. Add to your .vimrc key
mappings of your choice:

" NOTE: be sure to remove these mappings if using the tpope/vim-surround plugin!
map <silent> Sq <Plug>QuotableSurroundDouble
map <silent> SQ <Plug>QuotableSurroundSingle

Then you can use motion commands to surround your text with quotes:

(an asterisk is used to denote the cursor position)

• visSq - My senten*ce. => “My sentence.”
• visSQ - My senten*ce. => ‘My sentence.’

Alternatively, if you’ve installed Tim Pope’s [vim-surround][] plugin you also
have replace abilities on pairs of characters:

• cs'q - 'Hello W*orld' => “Hello World”
• cs"q - "Hello W*orld" => “Hello World”
• cs(q - (Hello W*orld) => “Hello World”
• cs(Q - (Hello W*orld) => ‘Hello World’

Entering special characters

Sometimes you must enter special characters (like typographic quotes)
manually, such as in a search expression. You can do so through Vim’s digraphs
or via your operating system’s keyboard shortcuts.

Glyph	Vim Digraph	OS X	Description
‘	'6	Opt-]	left single quotation mark
’	'9	Shift-Opt-]	right single quotation mark
“	"6	Opt-[	left double quotation mark
”	"9	Shift-Opt-[	right double quotation mark
‚	.9		single low-9 quote
„	:9	Shift-Opt-w	double low-9 quote
‹	1<	Opt-\	left pointing single quotation mark
›	1>	Shift-Opt-\	right pointing single quotation mark
«	<<	Opt-\	left pointing double quotation mark
»	>>	Shift-Opt-\	right pointing double quotation mark
′	1'		single prime
″	2'		double prime
–	-N	Opt-hyphen	en dash
—	-M	Shift-Opt-hyphen	em dash
…	..	Opt-;	horizontal ellipsis
	NS		non-breaking space
ï	i:	Opt-U i	lowercase i, umlaut
æ	ae	Opt-'	lowercase ae

For example, to enter left double quotation mark “, precede the digraph code
"6 with Ctrl-K, like

• «Ctrl-K» "6

Alternatively, if you’re on OS X, you can use Opt-[ to enter this
character.

For more details, see:

• :help digraphs

International support

Many international keyboards feature keys to allow you to input
typographic quote characters directly. In such cases, you won’t need
to change the behavior of the straight quote keys.

But if you do, a standard convention is used by default:

let g:quotable#doubleDefault = '“”'     " “double”
let g:quotable#singleDefault = '‘’'     " ‘single’

Those users editing most of their prose in German may want to change their
defaults to:

let g:quotable#doubleDefault = '„“'     " „doppel“
let g:quotable#singleDefault = '‚‘'     " ‚einzel‘

International users who desire maximum control can switch between quote
pairings within a single buffer, adding the following key mappings to
their .vimrc:

nnoremap <silent> <leader>qd :call quotable#init()<cr>    " forces defaults
nnoremap <silent> <leader>qn :call quotable#init({ 'double':'“”', 'single':'‘’' })<cr>
nnoremap <silent> <leader>qg :call quotable#init({ 'double':'„“', 'single':'‚‘' })<cr>
nnoremap <silent> <leader>qx :call quotable#init({ 'double':'„”', 'single':'‚’' })<cr>
nnoremap <silent> <leader>qf :call quotable#init({ 'double':'«»', 'single':'‹›' })<cr>
