# vim-textobj-entire - Text objects for entire buffers

[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/kana/vim-textobj-entire.png)](https://travis-ci.org/kana/vim-textobj-entire)

vim-textobj-entire is a Vim plugin to provide text objects (`ae` and `ie` by

default) to select the entire content of a buffer.  Though these are trivial

operations (e.g. `ggVG`), text object versions are more handy, because you do

not have to be conscious of the cursor position (e.g. `vae`).

vim-textobj-entire provides two text objects:

* `ae` targets the entire content of the current buffer.

* `ie` is similar to `ae`, but `ie` does not include leading and trailing empty

  lines.  `ie` is handy for some situations.  For example,

    1. Paste some text into a new buffer (`n"*P`)

       -- note that the initial empty line is left as the last line.

    2. Edit the text (`:%s/foo/bar/g` etc)

    3. Then copy the resulting text to another application (`"*yie`)
