# Reselect Two
## Description
This plugin allows you to **restore**, not only the **last selection area** (like does the '**gv**' command) but also the previous one: the **penultimate selection area** (with '**gV**'). See `:h reselect-Visual`, `:h reselect-two`.
### Examples
| Selection Area | Reselection |
| ----------------- | -------------------------------------- |
| "`HELL`o world!" | **gv** -> `HELL`, **gV** -> `HELL` |
| "hello `WORLD`!" | **gv** -> `WORLD`, **gV** -> `HELL` |
| "`HELLO` world!" | **gv** -> `HELLO`, **gV** -> `WORLD` |
Here we create two selections and alternate from one to the other using **gv** and **gV**.
## Get Started
* Install with *vim-plug* or any other plugin manager.
`Plug 'clemedon/vim-reselect-two'`
* Read the man: `:h reselect-two`
## Contribute
This is a **work in progress** and may have bugs. **Contributions are welcome**!
## Dev Notes
### Issue
- 240116 **Cursor position** should be restored when the selection is restored.
### Alternative Solution
- 240116 When selection area start, save all keys pressed until the end of the
selection `ModeChanged`, alongside with `visualmode()` and beg position.
Replay them like a macro when the selection is restored.
