================

Defines text objects to target text *after* the designated characters.

Installation

------------

Using [vim-plug](https://github.com/junegunn/vim-plug):

```vim

Plug 'junegunn/vim-after-object'

```

Setting up

----------

vim-after-object does not define any mappings by default. You have to enable

mappings you want.

```vim

autocmd VimEnter * call after_object#enable('=', ':', '-', '#', ' ')

```

For each character in the argument list, a pair of mappings is defined; the

default mapping with `a`-prefix (mnemonic for *after*) and the one with

`aa`-prefix for backward search. The latter is only useful when the character

appears more than once in the line.

To use different prefixes, pass an optional list to `after_object#enable`:

```vim

" ]= and [= instead of a= and aa=

autocmd VimEnter * call after_object#enable([']', '['], '=', ':')

```

Usage

-----

```ruby

# va=  visual after =

# ca=  change after =

# da=  delete after =

# ya=  yank after =

apple = 'juice'

```

When the line contains multiple occurrences of the character, you can move the

visual selection forward by repeating `a=`, or backward with `aa=`. Both

mappings can be preceded by a count. Refer to the test cases for the details.
