Difference between Vintage mode and Vim: ci

#1

Hi

I’m licensed customer of Sublime Text 2 and very happy except for one thing:

Say you have the following 2 lines:

var1 = "bla"
var2 = "bla"

If the cursor is on var2, and you type ci", it takes into account the " from the previous line, which Vim doesn’t do - Vim looks ahead to the string on the current line. So I think the ci command must just be fixed to take newlines into account and not extend itself beyond newlines but instead look forward on the current line for the matching character, like Vim.

If users have come to rely on this behaviour then please make a config option - I’m sure the die-hard Vim fans will appreciate it!

Regards,
Dave

Could you please report this at github.com/sublimehq/Vintage/issues so there’s a higher chance someone will notice and try to remedy this?

Thanks, logged it on Github, was not aware that Vintage was an open source plugin.
