About vim-flash
Like flash.nvim on IdeaVim
lets you navigate your code with search labels, enhanced character motions
Usage
Add the following code to your .ideavimrc file.
nmap s <Action>(flash.search) xmap s <Action>(flash.search)
Then you can use s and type the word you want to search for. The word will be highlighted in the editor.
Off course you can use other keybindings. for example map <leader>s <Action>(flash.search)
Enhanced Vim F/f/T/t/;/, Feature
New enhanced vim F/f/T/t/;/, functionality similar to classic vim f command:
" enhance vim f (find for char in characters to the right of the current cursor) nmap f <Action>(flash.find) xmap f <Action>(flash.find) " enhance vim F (find for char in characters to the left of the current cursor) nmap F <Action>(flash.find_backward) xmap F <Action>(flash.find_backward) " enhance vim t (till for char in characters to the right of the current cursor) nmap t <Action>(flash.till) xmap t <Action>(flash.till) " enhance vim T (till for char in characters to the left of the current cursor) nmap T <Action>(flash.till_backward) xmap T <Action>(flash.till_backward) " enhance vim ; (Repeat the last f/F/t/T search) nmap ; <Action>(flash.repeat) xmap ; <Action>(flash.repeat) " enhance vim , (Repeat the last f/F/t/T search backward) nmap , <Action>(flash.repeat_backward) xmap , <Action>(flash.repeat_backward)
