Goto Commands Goto Commands
~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Commands beginning with g are used to goto certain position and or buffer: Commands beginning with `g` are used to goto certain position and or buffer.
* `gh`: select to line begin
* `gl`: select to line end
* `gi`: select to line begin (non blank)
* `gg`, `gk`: go to the first line
* `gj`: go to the last line
* `ge`: go to last char of last line
* `gt`: go to the first displayed line
* `gc`: go to the middle displayed line
* `gb`: go to the last displayed line
* `ga`: go to the previous (alternate) buffer
* `gf`: open the file whose name is selected
* `g.`: go to last buffer modification position
If a count is given prior to hitting `g`, `g` will jump to the given line. If a count is given prior to hitting `g`, `g` will jump to the given line.
Using `G` will extend the selection rather than jump. Using `G` will extend the selection rather than jump.

View commands View commands
~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Some commands, all beginning with v permit to manipulate the current Commands beginning with `v` permit to center or scroll the current
view. view. Using `V` will lock view mode until `<esc>` is hit
* `vv` or `vc`: center the main selection in the window (vertically) See <<doc/pages/keys#view-commands,`:doc keys`>>.
* `vm`: center the main selection in the window (horizontally)
* `vt`: scroll to put the main selection on the top line of the window
* `vb`: scroll to put the main selection on the bottom line of the window
* `vh`: scroll the window count columns left
* `vj`: scroll the window count line downward
* `vk`: scroll the window count line upward
* `vl`: scroll the window count columns right
Using `V` will lock view mode until `<esc>` is hit

Registers are named lists of text. They are used for various purposes,

Defining Commands Defining Commands
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
New commands can be defined using the `:def` command. New commands can be created using `:define-command`.
------------------------------ See <<doc/pages/commands#declaring-new-commands,`:doc commands`>>.
:def <command_name> <commands>
------------------------------
`<commands>` is a string containing the commands to execute. Some helper commands are available to define composite commands.
`def` can also take some flags: See <<doc/pages/commands#helpers,`:doc commands`>>.
* `-params <num>`: the command accept <num> parameters, with <num>
either a number, or of the form <min>..<max>, with both <min> and
<max> omittable.
* `-file-completion`: try file completion on any parameter passed
to this command
* `-client-completion`: try client name completion on any parameter
passed to this command
* `-buffer-completion`: try buffer name completion on any parameter
passed to this command
* `-command-completion`: try command completion on any parameter
passed to this command
* `-shell-completion`: following string is a shell command which takes
parameters as positional params and output one completion candidate
per line. The provided shell command will run after each keypress
* `-shell-candidates`: following string is a shell command which takes
parameters as positional params and output one completion candidate
per line. The provided shell command will run once at the beginning
of each completion session, candidates are cached and then used by
kakoune internal fuzzy engine
* `-allow-override`: allow the new command to replace an existing one
with the same name.
* `-hidden`: do not show the command in command name completions
* `-docstring`: define the documentation string for the command
Using shell expansion permits defining complex commands or accessing
Kakoune state:
------------------------------------------------------
:def print_selection %{ echo %sh{ ${kak_selection} } }
------------------------------------------------------
Some helper commands can be used to define composite commands:
* `prompt <prompt> <command>`: prompt the user for a string, when the user validates,
executes <command>. The entered text is available in the `text` value
accessible through `$kak_text` in shells or `%val{text}` in commands.
* `on-key <command>`: wait for next key from user, then execute <command>,
the key is available through the `key` value, accessible through `$kak_key`.
* `menu <label1> <commands1> <label2> <commands2>...`: display a menu using
labels, the selected label's commands are executed.
`menu` can take a -auto-single argument, to automatically run commands
when only one choice is provided. And a -select-cmds argument, in which
case menu takes three argument per item, the last one being a command
to execute when the item is selected (but not validated).
* `info <text>`: display text in an information box, at can take a -anchor
option, which accepts `left`, `right` and `cursor` as value, in order to
specify where the info box should be anchored relative to the main selection.
* `try <commands> catch <on_error_commands>`: prevent an error in <commands>
from aborting the command execution, execute <on_error_commands>
instead. If nothing is to be done on error, the catch part can be ommitted.
* `reg <name> <content>`: set register <name> to <content>
* `select <anchor_line>.<anchor_column>,<cursor_line>.<cursor_column>:...`:
replace the current selections with the one described in the argument
* `debug {info,buffers,options,memory,shared-strings,profile-hash-maps,faces,mappings}`:
print some debug information in the `*debug*` buffer
Note that these commands are available in interactive command mode, but are
not that useful in this context.
