Welcome to emacs rocks, episode four.

0:00:04.500,0:00:07.600
Today I'll go all controversial on you -

0:00:07.600,0:00:11.033
and rebind some emacs keys.

0:00:11.033,0:00:13.259
That's what emacs is all about isn't it?

0:00:13.259,0:00:15.867
Sharpening that knife.

0:00:15.867,0:00:19.659
But first, a cool set of keystrokes.

0:00:20.341,0:00:24.567
I'm switching to buster.js for my javascript tests these days

0:00:24.567,0:00:28.133
and the syntax is slightly different

0:00:28.133,0:00:33.533
watch how quickly I can go from one to the other

0:00:33.933,0:00:36.459
done! hah

0:00:37.967,0:00:41.267
did you see the first keystroke?

0:00:41.267,0:00:43.932
ctrl-s is excellent for navigating

0:00:43.932,0:00:46.533
but for short distances, it's suboptimal

0:00:46.533,0:00:49.033
watch this

0:00:49.033,0:00:56.703
I have to press enter to exit from the search, to start typing

0:00:56.703,0:01:00.633
so let vim show the way with its excellent F-command

0:01:00.633,0:01:03.800
move to char

0:01:03.800,0:01:09.033
there's an extension called iy-go-to-char that does much the same

0:01:09.033,0:01:13.167
I mapped it to meta-m, as in move

0:01:13.167,0:01:16.900
yes, that keystroke is usually back to indentation

0:01:16.900,0:01:21.100
but I find a much better mnemonic for that is meta-i

0:01:21.100,0:01:26.110
so ... meta-m t, and I can press period right away

0:01:26.110,0:01:29.400
meta-l for lower case,

0:01:29.400,0:01:32.033
which conveniently moves my cursor to the end of the word

0:01:32.033,0:01:34.900
forward, and transpose-word

0:01:34.900,0:01:39.933
we had transpose-line and transpose-char in a previous episode

0:01:39.933,0:01:44.400
so this is transpose-word ... nice, huh?

0:01:44.400,0:01:48.767
so, iy-go-to-char - you can just google it

0:01:48.767,0:01:50.759
it's really nice

0:01:50.759,0:01:55.033
you don't have to bind it to the same key as me if you find that controversial

0:01:55.033,0:02:01.208
I see that the suggested keystroke is ctrl-c f

0:02:01.208,0:02:04.273
since it's supposed to be a short command for quick navigation,

0:02:04.273,0:02:06.900
I want to have it on one keystroke

0:02:06.900,0:02:10.519
let's take a look at another example

0:02:10.519,0:02:14.000
here's a misspelled word - and another

0:02:14.000,0:02:17.267
to quickly fix those I press:

0:02:17.267,0:02:20.133
meta-m p e

0:02:20.133,0:02:22.900
meta-m o, and o again, t

0:02:23.577,0:02:26.295
very nice

0:02:26.787,0:02:28.054
that was episode four

0:02:28.054,0:02:29.646
hope you enjoyed it

0:02:29.646,0:02:31.369
see you next time
