Description

• This plugin helps you replace the pattern with the list of numbers generated.
• Its basically <C-a> or <C-x> on steroids from command-line
• See examples to better understand

Installation

with Lazy.nvim

{
    "svban/NumbSub.nvim",
    cmd = { "NumbSub" }, -- lazy load on this command
    opts = {},
}

Usage:

:NumbSub p<pattern> s<start> n<count> S<step> [w<width>|W<width>|w|W] m<s|a|p|r|R> [c]

Arguments

• s - start of the sequence
• S - step size
• n - add step size only after n substitutions, for example increase counter only after 4 substitutions
• p - define the pattern here - should be a number only while using mp & ma
• [w] - width - specify a number with w or use only w for autowidth - doesn't take negative sign into account
• [W] - Width - specify a number with W or use only W for autowidth - takes negative sign into account
• [c] - confirm on each match

Modes

• ms : sequence - just replace the pattern with the list of numbers generated
• mr : reverse sequence - start replacing pattern from the bottom of the list generated and then take n in to account
• mR : Reverse sequence - first take n into account, start replacing pattern from the bottom of the list generated
• mp : progressive - add list of numbers generated to the pattern
• ma : add - add step to the pattern, only S and p is mandatory when using this mode
