*colon_operator.txt* For Vim version 7.0 Last change: 2019 May 29 DESCRIPTION *colon_operator* This plugin provides a mapping target to use an Ex command as an operator, in a way repeatable with the |.| (dot) operator. This allows you to, for example, |:sort| a text object like a paragraph, and then repeat it on another paragraph. Think of it as the |:| analogue to the |!| motion. REQUIREMENTS *colon_operator-requirements* This plugin only loads if 'compatible' is not set. MAPPINGS *colon_operator-mappings* *(ColonOperator)* The single normal mode mapping target is |(ColonOperator)|. There is no default key mapping; you should define one yourself in your |vimrc|. For example: > nmap g: (ColonOperator) < AUTHOR *colon_operator-author* Written and maintained by Tom Ryder .
