Usage
-----
The textobj-names plugin provides a few new text-objects for working with names in source code.
You can use them when you have to deal with names that are separated by delimiters like `-`, `_`, `/`, `@` or `#`.
Here is an example for a situation this plugin might help you in.
In your source code, you have a variable name like `my-old-name`.
Let's suppose you have to change `old` to `new` and want to get rid of the dashes (\| for cursor position).
Using this plugin, you can do the following.
`my-o|ld-name` and type `ca-` to get `my|name` from where you can insert `new`.
Similarly, the name could have been `my/old/name` or `my_old_name`, in which case you would have to type `ca/` or `ca_` respectively.
The plugin is able to handle consecutive delimiters as well.
That means, transforming the variable name `my__variable__name` into `myname` can be done via one simple `da_`.
