# Zzz to Char

[![License GPL 3](https://img.shields.io/badge/license-GPL_3-green.svg)](http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-3.0.txt)

[![MELPA](https://melpa.org/packages/zzz-to-char-badge.svg)](https://melpa.org/#/zzz-to-char)

![CI](https://github.com/mrkkrp/zzz-to-char/workflows/CI/badge.svg?branch=master)

This package provides two new commands: `zzz-to-char` and `zzz-up-to-char`

which work like the built-ins `zap-to-char` and `zap-up-to-char`, but allow

the user to quickly select the exact character they want to zzz to. The

commands work like the built-ins when there is only one occurrence of the

target character, excepting that they automatically work in the backward

direction, too. One can specify how many characters to scan from each side

of the point, see `zzz-to-char-reach`.

## Installation

The package is available via MELPA, so you can just type `M-x

package-install RET zzz-to-char RET`.

If you would like to install the package manually, download or clone it and

put on Emacs' `load-path`. Then you can require it in your init file like

this:

```emacs-lisp

(require 'zzz-to-char)

```

## Usage

Just bind `zzz-to-char` or `zzz-to-char-up-to-char` (depends on your taste,

the latter doesn't include the target char into the killed text):

```emacs-lisp

(global-set-key (kbd "M-z") #'zzz-to-char)

```
