*tcomment.txt* An easily extensible & universal comment plugin
Author: Thomas Link, micathom AT gmail com?subject=vim
tcomment provides easy to use, file-type sensible comments for Vim. It
can handle embedded syntax.
TComment works like a toggle, i.e., it will comment out text that
contains uncommented lines, and it will remove comment markup for
already commented text (i.e. text that contains no uncommented lines).
If the file-type is properly defined, TComment will figure out which
comment string to use. Otherwise you use |tcomment#DefineType()| to
override the default choice.
TComment can properly handle an embedded syntax, e.g., ruby/python/perl
regions in vim scripts, HTML or JavaScript in php code etc.
tcomment favours the use of line-wise comment styles. This implies that usually
whole line will be commented out. tcomment also knows block-style and inline
comments that can be used via special maps (see below) or the |:TCommentAs|
command.

*tcomment-maps*
Key bindings~
Most of the time the default toggle keys will do what you want (or to be
more precise: what I think you want it to do ;-).
*tcomment-operator*
As operator (the prefix can be customized via |g:tcommentMapLeaderOp1|
and |g:tcommentMapLeaderOp2|):
gc{motion} :: Toggle comments (for small comments within one line
the &filetype_inline style will be used, if
defined)
gc<Count>c{motion} :: Toggle comment text with count argument
(see |tcomment#Comment()|)
gcc :: Toggle comment for the current line
Explicit commenting/uncommenting:
g<{motion} :: Uncomment region
g<c :: Uncomment the current line
g<b :: Uncomment the current region as block
g>{motion} :: Comment region
g>c :: Comment the current line
g>b :: Comment the current region as block
In visual mode:
gc :: Toggle comments
gC :: Comment selected text
CAVEAT: If you visually select text within a line, the visual mode map will
comment out the selected text. If you selected text across several lines, the
visual mode map will assume though that you wanted to comment out lines --
since this is how many vim maps work. In order to make tcomment use e.g. inline
comments anyway, use the <c-_>i map -- see below.
By default the cursor stays put. If you want the cursor to the end of
the commented text, set |g:tcommentOpModeExtra| to '>' (but this may not
work properly with exclusive motions).
Primary key maps for normal and insert mode:
<c-_><c-_> :: :TComment
<c-_><space> :: :TComment <QUERY COMMENT-BEGIN ?COMMENT-END>
<c-_>b :: :TCommentBlock
In insert mode, the cursor will be positioned inside
the comment. In normal mode, the cursor will stay
put.
<c-_>a :: :TCommentAs <QUERY COMMENT TYPE>
<c-_>n :: :TCommentAs &filetype <QUERY COUNT>
<c-_>s :: :TCommentAs &filetype_<QUERY COMMENT SUBTYPE>
<c-_>i :: :TCommentInline (in normal and insert mode, this map will
create an empty inline comment, which isn't suitable for
all filetypes though)
In insert mode, the cursor will be positioned inside
the comment. In normal mode, the cursor will stay
put.
<c-_>r :: :TCommentRight
<c-_>p :: Comment the current inner paragraph
<c-_><Count> :: Set the count argument (a number from 1 to 9) for use with
the subsequent tcomment map/command (see
|tcomment#Comment()|)
E.g. in JavaScript, in order to get an empty /** */
comment for documentation purposes, in insert mode type
<c-_>2<c-_>i
In order to get an empty block comment like >
/**
*
*/
< type <c-_>2<c-_>b
Most of the above maps are also available in visual mode.
A secondary set of key maps is defined for normal and insert mode:
<Leader>__ :: :TComment
<Leader>_p :: Comment the current inner paragraph
<Leader>_<space> :: :TComment <QUERY COMMENT-BEGIN ?COMMENT-END>
<Leader>_i :: :TCommentInline
<Leader>_r :: :TCommentRight
<Leader>_b :: :TCommentBlock
<Leader>_a :: :TCommentAs <QUERY COMMENT TYPE>
<Leader>_n :: :TCommentAs &filetype <QUERY COUNT>
<Leader>_s :: :TCommentAs &filetype_<QUERY COMMENT SUBTYPE>
... and for select mode:
<Leader>__ :: :TComment
<Leader>_i :: :TCommentInline

========================================================================
autoload/tcomment.vim~
*g:tcomment#blank_lines*
g:tcomment#blank_lines (default: 2)
If 1, comment blank lines too.
If 2, also comment blank lines within indented code blocks
(requires mixedindent -- see |tcomment#Comment()|).
*g:tcomment#rstrip_on_uncomment*
g:tcomment#rstrip_on_uncomment (default: 1)
If 1, remove right-hand whitespace on uncomment from empty lines.
If 2, remove right-hand whitespace on uncomment from all lines.
*g:tcommentModeExtra*
g:tcommentModeExtra (default: '')
Modifies how commenting works.
> ... Move the cursor to the end of the comment
>> ... Like above but move the cursor to the next line
# ... Move the cursor to the position of the commented text
(NOTE: this only works when creating empty comments using
|:TCommentInline| from normal or insert mode and should
not be set here as a global option.)
*g:tcommentOpModeExtra*
g:tcommentOpModeExtra (default: '')
Modifies how the operator works.
See |g:tcommentModeExtra| for a list of possible values.
*g:tcommentOptions*
g:tcommentOptions (default: {})
Other key-value options used by |tcomment#Comment()|.
Example: If you want to put the opening comment marker always in
the first column regardless of the block's indentation, put this
into your |vimrc| file: >
let g:tcommentOptions = {'col': 1}
<
*g:tcomment#options_comments*
g:tcomment#options_comments (default: {'whitespace': get(g:tcommentOptions, 'whitespace', 'both')})
Additional args for |tcomment#Comment()| when using the 'comments'
option.
*g:tcomment#options_commentstring*
g:tcomment#options_commentstring (default: {'whitespace': get(g:tcommentOptions, 'whitespace', 'both')})
Additional args for |tcomment#Comment()| when using the
'commentstring' option.
*g:tcomment#ignore_char_type*
g:tcomment#ignore_char_type (default: 1)
|text-objects| for use with |tcomment#Operator| can have different
types: line, block, char etc. Text objects like aB, it, at etc.
have type char but this may not work reliably. By default,
tcomment handles those text objects most often as if they were of
type line. Set this variable to 0 in order to change this
behaviour. Be prepared that the result may not always match your
intentions.
*g:tcommentGuessFileType*
g:tcommentGuessFileType (default: 0)
Guess the file type based on syntax names always or for some fileformat only
If non-zero, try to guess filetypes.
tcomment also checks g:tcommentGuessFileType_{&filetype} for
filetype specific values.
Values:
0 ... don't guess
1 ... guess
FILETYPE ... assume this filetype
*g:tcommentGuessFileType_dsl*
g:tcommentGuessFileType_dsl (default: 'xml')
For dsl documents, assume filetype = xml.
*g:tcommentGuessFileType_php*
g:tcommentGuessFileType_php (default: 'html')
In php documents, the php part is usually marked as phpRegion. We
thus assume that the buffers default comment style isn't php but
html.
*g:tcommentGuessFileType_blade*
g:tcommentGuessFileType_blade (default: 'html')
See |g:tcommentGuessFileType_php|.
*g:tcommentGuessFileType_html*
g:tcommentGuessFileType_html (default: 1)
*g:tcommentGuessFileType_tskeleton*
g:tcommentGuessFileType_tskeleton (default: 1)
*g:tcommentGuessFileType_vim*
g:tcommentGuessFileType_vim (default: 1)
*g:tcommentGuessFileType_django*
g:tcommentGuessFileType_django (default: 1)
*g:tcommentGuessFileType_eruby*
g:tcommentGuessFileType_eruby (default: 1)
*g:tcommentGuessFileType_smarty*
g:tcommentGuessFileType_smarty (default: 1)
*g:tcommentIgnoreTypes_php*
g:tcommentIgnoreTypes_php (default: 'sql')
In php files, some syntax regions are wrongly highlighted as sql
markup. We thus ignore sql syntax when guessing the filetype in
php files.
*g:tcomment#syntax_substitute*
g:tcomment#syntax_substitute (default: {...})
*g:tcommentSyntaxMap*
g:tcommentSyntaxMap (default: {...})
tcomment guesses filetypes based on the name of the current syntax
region. This works well if the syntax names match
/filetypeSomeName/. Other syntax names have to be explicitly
mapped onto the corresponding filetype.
*g:tcomment#replacements_c*
g:tcomment#replacements_c (default: {...})
Replacements for c filetype.
*g:tcommentInlineC*
g:tcommentInlineC (default: {...})
Generic c-like comments.
*g:tcommentBlockC2*
g:tcommentBlockC2 (default: {...})
Generic c-like block comments (alternative markup).
*g:tcomment#replacements_xml*
g:tcomment#replacements_xml (default: {...})
Replacements for xml filetype.
*g:tcommentBlockXML*
g:tcommentBlockXML (default: {...})
Generic xml-like block comments.
*g:tcommentInlineXML*
g:tcommentInlineXML (default: {...})
Generic xml-like comments.
*g:tcomment#ignore_comment_def*
g:tcomment#ignore_comment_def (default: [])
A list of names or filetypes, which should be ignored by
|tcomment#DefineType()| -- no custom comment definition will be
stored for these names.
This variable should be set before loading autoload/tcomment.vim.
*g:tcomment#must_escape_expression_backslash*
g:tcomment#must_escape_expression_backslash (default: 0)
Users of vim earlier than 7.3 might have to set this variable to
true. Set this variable to 0, if you see unexpected "\r" char
sequences in comments.
The reommended value was `!(v:version > 702 || (v:version == 702 && has('patch407')))`.
It is now assumed though, that no unpatched versions of vim are in
use.

*tcomment#DefineType()*
tcomment#DefineType(name, commentdef, ?cdef={}, ?anyway=0)
If you don't explicitly define a comment style, |:TComment| will use
'commentstring' instead. We override the default values here in order
to have a blank after the comment marker. Block comments work only if
we explicitly define the markup.
NAME usually is a 'filetype'. You can use special suffixes to define
special comment types. E.g. the name "FILETYPE_block" is used for
block comments for 'filetype'. The name "FILETYPE_inline" is used for
inline comments. If no specialized comment definition exists, the
normal one with name "FILETYPE" is used.
The comment definition can be either a string or a dictionary.
If it is a string:
The format for block comments is similar to 'commentstrings' with the
exception that the format strings for blocks can contain a second line
that defines how "middle lines" (see :h format-comments) should be
displayed.
Example: If the string is "--%s--\n-- ", lines will be commented as
"--%s--" but the middle lines in block comments will be commented as
"--%s".
If it is a dictionary:
See the help on the args argument of |tcomment#Comment| (see item 1,
args is a list of key=value pairs) to find out which fields can be
used.
*tcomment#GetCommentDef()*
tcomment#GetCommentDef(name, ...)
Return the comment definition for NAME.
*b:tcomment_def_{NAME}*
Return b:tcomment_def_{NAME} if the variable exists. Otherwise return
the comment definition as set with |tcomment#DefineType|.
*g:tcomment_types*
g:tcomment_types (default: {})
A dictionary of NAME => COMMENT DEFINITION (see |tcomment#DefineType|)
that can be set in vimrc to override tcomment's default comment
styles.
*tcomment#Comment()*
tcomment#Comment(beg, end, ...)
tcomment#Comment(line1, line2, ?comment_mode, ?comment_anyway, ?args...)
args... are either:
1. a list of key=value pairs where known keys are (see also
|g:tcommentOptions|):
as=STRING ... Use a specific comment definition
count=N ... Repeat the comment string N times
col=N ... Start the comment at column N (in block
mode; must be smaller than |indent()|)
mode=STRING ... See the notes below on the "comment_mode" argument
mode_extra=STRING ... Add to comment_mode
begin=STRING ... Comment prefix
end=STRING ... Comment postfix
middle=STRING ... Middle line comments in block mode
rxbeg=N ... Regexp to find the substring of "begin"
that should be multiplied by "count"
rxend=N ... The above for "end"
rxmid=N ... The above for "middle"
mixedindent=BOOL ... If true, allow use of mixed
characters for indentation
commentstring_rx ... A regexp format string that matches
commented lines (no new groups may be
introduced, the |regexp| is |\V|; % have
to be doubled); "commentstring", "begin"
and optionally "end" must be defined or
deducible.
whitespace ... Define whether commented text is
surrounded with whitespace; if
both ... surround with whitespace (default)
left ... keep whitespace on the left
right... keep whitespace on the right
no ... don't use whitespace
strip_whitespace ... Strip trailing whitespace: if 1
(default), strip from empty lines only,
if 2, always strip whitespace; if 0,
don't strip any whitespace
2. 1-2 values for: ?commentPrefix, ?commentPostfix
3. a dictionary (internal use only)
comment_mode (see also ¦g:tcommentModeExtra¦):
G ... guess the value of comment_mode
B ... block (use extra lines for the comment markers)
L ... lines
i ... maybe inline, guess
I ... inline
R ... right (comment the line right of the cursor)
v ... visual
o ... operator
C ... force comment
U ... force uncomment (if U and C are present, U wins)
By default, each line in range will be commented by adding the comment
prefix and postfix.

comment text as if it were of a specific filetype
*tcomment#GuessCommentType()*
tcomment#GuessFileType(?options={})
A function that makes the s:GuessFileType() function usable for other
library developers.
The argument is a dictionary with the following keys:
beg ................ (default = line("."))
end ................ (default = line("."))
comment_mode ........ (default = "G")
filetype ........... (default = &filetype)
fallbackFiletype ... (default = "")
This function return a dictionary that contains information about how
to make comments. The information about the filetype of the text
between lines "beg" and "end" is in the "filetype" key of the return
value. It returns the first discernible filetype it encounters.
