;;; vi.el --- major mode for emulating "vi" editor under GNU Emacs

;; This file is in the public domain because the authors distributed it
;; without a copyright notice before the US signed the Bern Convention.

;; This file is part of GNU Emacs.

;; Author: Neal Ziring <[e-mail]>
;;	Felix S. T. Wu <[e-mail]>
;; Keywords: emulations

;;; Commentary:

;; Originally written by : seismo!wucs![e-mail] (Neal Ziring)
;; Extensively redesigned and rewritten by [e-mail] (Felix S.T. Wu)
;; Last revision: 01/07/87 Wed (for GNU Emacs 18.33)

;; INSTALLATION PROCEDURE:
;; 1) Add a global key binding for command "vi-mode" (I use ESC ESC instead of
;;    the single ESC used in real "vi", so I can access other ESC prefixed emacs
;;    commands while I'm in "vi"), say, by putting the following line in your
;;    ".emacs" file:
;;    (define-key global-map "\e\e" 'vi-mode) ;quick switch into vi-mode
;; 2) If you wish you can define "find-file-hook" to enter "vi" automatically
;;    after a file is loaded into the buffer. For example, I defined it as:
;;    (setq find-file-hook (list
;;                           (function (lambda ()
;;                               (if (not (or (eq major-mode 'Info-mode)
;; 	                                     (eq major-mode 'vi-mode)))
;;                                   (vi-mode))))))
;; 3) In your .emacs file you can define the command "vi-mode" to be "autoload"
;;    or you can execute the "load" command to load "vi" directly.
;; 4) Read the comments for command "vi-mode" before you start using it.

;; COULD DO
;; 1). A general 'define-operator' function to replace current hack
;; 2). In operator handling, should allow other point moving Emacs commands
;;     (such as ESC <, ESC >) to be used as arguments.

(defun vi-mode ()
  "Major mode that acts like the `vi' editor.
The purpose of this mode is to provide you the combined power of vi (namely,
the \"cross product\" effect of commands and repeat last changes) and Emacs.

This command redefines nearly all keys to look like vi commands.
It records the previous major mode, and any vi command for input
\(`i', `a', `s', etc.) switches back to that mode.
Thus, ordinary Emacs (in whatever major mode you had been using)
is \"input\" mode as far as vi is concerned.

To get back into vi from \"input\" mode, you must issue this command again.
Therefore, it is recommended that you assign it to a key.

Major differences between this mode and real vi :

* Limitations and unsupported features
  - Search patterns with line offset (e.g. /pat/+3 or /pat/z.) are
    not supported.
  - Ex commands are not implemented; try ':' to get some hints.
  - No line undo (i.e. the 'U' command), but multi-undo is a standard feature.

* Modifications
  - The stopping positions for some point motion commands (word boundary,
    pattern search) are slightly different from standard 'vi'.
    Also, no automatic wrap around at end of buffer for pattern searching.
  - Since changes are done in two steps (deletion then insertion), you need
    to undo twice to completely undo a change command.  But this is not needed
    for undoing a repeated change command.
  - No need to set/unset 'magic', to search for a string with regular expr
    in it just put a prefix arg for the search commands.  Replace cmds too.
  - ^R is bound to incremental backward search, so use ^L to redraw screen.

* Extensions
  - Some standard (or modified) Emacs commands were integrated, such as
    incremental search, query replace, transpose objects, and keyboard macros.
  - In command state, ^X links to the 'ctl-x-map', and ESC can be linked to
    esc-map or set undefined.  These can give you the full power of Emacs.
  - See vi-com-map for those keys that are extensions to standard vi, e.g.
    `vi-name-last-change-or-macro', `vi-verify-spelling', `vi-locate-def',
    `vi-mark-region', and 'vi-quote-words'.  Some of them are quite handy.
  - Use \\[vi-switch-mode] to switch among different modes quickly.

Syntax table and abbrevs while in vi mode remain as they were in Emacs."
