Vim Visual Multi

vim-visual-multi is a Vim and Neovim plugin that provides multi-cursor text editing. It functions as a multi-cursor text editor and macro orchestrator, allowing for parallel insertions, deletions, and replacements across diverse text occurrences.

The plugin includes a regex text selection tool used to spawn multiple cursors based on regular expression patterns. This enables the identification of matching words or fragments to perform batch modifications across a file.

The system covers several capability areas, including the vertical alignment and synchronization of cursors to a common column. It also provides automation for batch command execution, allowing macros to be run across all active cursor positions. Selection management tools allow for adding, removing, or skipping specific occurrences to refine the active cursor set.

Features

Multi-Cursor Editing - Provides simultaneous text editing, insertions, and replacements across multiple locations in a file.
Batch Text Transformations - Executes macros and commands across multiple active cursors to automate repetitive changes.
Pattern-Based Spawning - Identifies matching words or regular expressions to instantly spawn cursors at every occurrence.
Multi-Caret Editors - Implements a multi-caret system for parallel insertions, deletions, and replacements across diverse text occurrences.
