Misc Tools
In INSERT mode it is useful to have completion of words. The word completion searches for all possible combinations in all the opened files.
Write down a word that you know to appear in one of the opened files by vy, place the cursor at the end of such a word then press the keycommand below in INSERT mode:
<Control-q>
If you keep pressing it other possible combinations will appear.
Consider opening a file with:
vy /tmp/tmpfile
Then switch the focus to the AreaVi instance that maps to the file above and in EXTRA mode, press:
<Key-ampersand>
It will appear on the statusbar a msg saying the file path was copied to the clipboard. Try pasting it somewhere.
It is possible to open the url under the cursor in the default browser, switch to ALPHA mode then press:
<Key-l>
This shortcut is useful sometimes.
This keycomand is useful to quickly view the source code of a given url that was copied to the clipboard.
Switch to ALPHA mode then press:
<Key-s>
If you have an html file that is opened, it is possible to make the browser open it by switching to ALPHA mode then pressing:
<Key-o>
