Please, add support of " " and ' ' text objects to vi-mode plugin

[srghma]

And many others text objects as I assume
I cant do ci"

zsh 5.2 (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu)
oh-my-zsh-git r4257.26aae6b-1

[srghma]

And how to make set clipboard=unnamedplus for vi-mode? 😄

Note that the commands for enabling that text object are at the top of Functions/Zle/select-quoted. You can use them in .zshrc regardless of what the vi-mode plugin does:

     autoload -U select-quoted
     zle -N select-quoted
     for m in visual viopp; do
       for c in {a,i}{\',\",\`}; do
         bindkey -M $m $c select-quoted
       done
     done

It'll also work for other characters if bound appropriately, e.g. i: i+ a. a, etc
You might also want to look at Functions/Zle/select-quoted and select-word-match (new in zsh 5.3).

@okapia, That must be added in vi-mode

[okapia]

@BjornMelgaard: yes, it ought to be added but I'm not an oh-my-zsh contributor so can't do that for you. I'm just trying to be helpful by pointing out what would need to be added and that you can use it directly from your .zshrc as a (hopefully) short-term solution.

@okapia , and I'm already using it, great thanks, I just had noted the obvious

[yangmillstheory]

I found a snippet that I'm including in my own patched vi-mode.plugin.zsh here (need to translate the page). Looks like #5708 (comment) will only work for quotes, not brackets.

Thanks @yangmillstheory

By the way, this is supported in the vim-mode plugin add-on.
