Slogan:

"Any of you fuckin' cursors move and I'll execute every one of you motherfuckers! Got that?" - Neovim Bunny

✨ Features

When you use shift (> or < keys) or filter (= key), Neovim move your cursor at the beginning of the selected region or doesn't keep the cursor on the same character in line mode. I think it's annoying.

This plugin will:

• keep your cursor at the same position when using >, < or = operators
  Eg. >ip will not put your cursor at the beginning of the paragraph
• keep your cursor on the same character when using line >>, << or == operators
• keep visual selection when using >, < or = operators in visual mode

⚡️ Requirements

Neovim >= 0.7.0

📦 Installation

Install the plugin with your preferred package manager:

    require("stay-in-place").setup({

      -- or leave it empty to use the default settings

Stay-in-place comes with the following defaults:

If true, this will automaticly set keymaps, you can refer to set_keymaps function if you want to set keymaps by yourself.
