• Added support for digraphs. Currently you can use Ctrl-k {char1}{char2} to enter a special character. This works while in Insert/Replace mode, as an argument to the r, F, T, f, and t commands, or while entering an ex command. The :digraphs command has been added to display the currently supported digraphs. Certain special cases of the Ctrl-K {char1}{char2} sequence are not supported. This supports all two character digraphs as listed in RFC1345. This amounts to 1,338 digraphs! Ensure the file encoding can handle the characters you enter.
• Added support for the 'digraph' option. If set, digraphs may be entered using {char1} [BackSpace] {char2}. This works in Insert/Replace mode or while entering an ex command.
• Added support for Ctrl-v {digits}. This works while in Insert/Replace mode, as an argument to the r, F, T, f, and t commands, or while entering an ex command.
• A new Vim.xml keymap needs to be installed or Ctrl-K needs to be removed from all source control menus.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed backspace in ex entry. Deleting the first character was closing the ex entry window.

0.4.0 from 0.3.2

New Features

• A VIM tool window has been added. This is used to show the current mode (if :set showmode is set) and any messages normally shown on the last line in VIM. To make this useful you should do the following:
  • Show the VIM tool window.
  • Make the VIM tool window docked.

0.3.2 from 0.3.1

New Commands

• Added support for {visual}!{filter}, !{motion}{filter}, and !!{filter}.

New Features

• Entering a count before the v or V command to start Visual mode is now supported.
• Repeating Visual commands is now supported.

Bug Fixes

• Now properly handle :0, :1, and : commands
• More problems with Visual mode - none of the visual change commands left you in insert mode after deleting the text and undo wouldn't put the text back.
• Fixed the handling of undo/redo with regard to text added to a file while not in insert mode. This can happen with the use of the Generate... menu for adding constructors, getters, etc. This also can happen when IDEA adds an import statement automatically. This also allows you to undo import optimizations!
• Doing a cw or cW when the cursor is already on the end of a word/WORD now correctly deletes only the last character of the word/WORD and not the next word too.
• gd and gD now properly save the jump location before moving to the declaration.

• Renamed some source files to avoid problems on case insensitive platforms.
• Entering a count for the . (repeat) command sometimes results in an internal error.
• Repeating an R command resulted in the text being inserted instead of overwriting old text. This now works properly.
• Issuing a p command when on the last line of a file pasted the line before the last line instead of after the last line.

0.3.1 from 0.3.0

New Commands

• Added support for [w, ]w, [b, and ]b. These move the cursor forward to start of next camel word, forward to end of next camel word, backward to start of previous camel word, and backward to end of previous camel word respectively. These are NOT in VIM but are very useful when working with mixed case method and variable names. Like their normal w, e, b, and ge counterparts, these may be used as operators for the c and d commands.
• :qall, :quitall, :wqall, and :xall - closes all editors.
• :wall - same as :write - save all files.
• :xit and :exit - same :wq - save files and close current editor.
• :close and :hide - same as :quit - close current editor.

• The == command can now be repeated with the . command.
