Removing all highlights in open buffer at once

[lcrockett]

Just for future reference and anyone wondering how to achieve removing all highlights in the open buffer in one go, see below for global function snippet.

function _G.highstr_highlight_remove_all()
  local api = vim.api
  local buffer_current_number = api.nvim_eval([[bufnr('%')]])
  local line_last = vim.fn.line('$')

  api.nvim_buf_clear_namespace(buffer_current_number, 0, 1 - 1, line_last)
end

You can call this function as follows: lua _G.highstr_highlight_remove_all()

Cheers for the great plugin !

Two things:

1. I just added an opt to remove all the highlights. Looks like this: :HSRmHighlight rm_all
2. No need to get all those vars, this is enough:

local current_buffer = api.nvim_eval([[bufnr('%')]])
vim.api.nvim_buf_clear_namespace(current_buffer, 0, 0, -1)

I'll release it as soon as I update the README and the doc 👍
