# dmacro.nvim / dmacro.vim
> [!CAUTION]
> - You need to use neovim **0.10.0** or later.
> - You need to use vim with **patch 9.1.0597**.
Text editors have evolved to support input in different ways.
- Word completion based on dictionary data (e.g. CTRL-X completion in Vim)
- Code fragment completion based on dictionary data (e.g. Snippet Completion)
- Contextual, rule-based word completion (e.g. Language Server Protocol)
- Completion of larger code fragments using generative AI (GitHub Copilot)
All of these were hailed as revolutionary when they first appeared.
What's the next big assistive feature? I say **operation completion**.
Currently, completion is for new code. But most coding isn't new creation.
It's overwriting, like editing or updating. Shouldn't this be supported?

## Example
[dmacro.webm](https://github.com/tani/dmacro.nvim/assets/5019902/7190245b-3c48-4170-bd41-6df781f21feb)
This plugin dynamically defines a macro.
**You do not need to make any markers for the macro.**
To define a macro, this plugin detects the reputation as follows:
- If you enter the same key sequence twice (e.g. `abcabc`), this plugin will define a macro with the key sequence (e.g. `abc`).
```mermaid
graph LR
start(( )) --> a1((a))
subgraph 1st
a1 --> b1((b))
b1 --> c1((c))
end
subgraph 2nd
c1 --> a2((a))
a2 --> b2((b))
b2 --> c2((c))
end
subgraph 3rd
c2 --> dmacro(dmacro)
dmacro -.- a3((a))
subgraph MacroExecution
a3 -.- b3((b))
b3 -.- c3((c))
end
end
c3 --> quit(( ))
```
- If you type the subsequence (e.g. `a`) of the previous key sequence (e.g. `abc`), this plugin will define a macro with the rest of the previous sequence (e.g. `bc`). After expanding the macro, the whole sequence (e.g. `abc`) will be the macro.
```mermaid
graph LR
start(( )) --> a1((a))
subgraph 1st
a1 --> b1((b))
b1 --> c1((c))
end
subgraph 2nd
c1 --> a2((a))
a2 --> dmacro1(dmacro)
dmacro1 -.- b2((b))
subgraph MacroExecution_1
b2 -.- c2((c))
end
end
subgraph 3rd
c2 --> dmacro2(dmacro)
dmacro2 -.- a3((a))
subgraph MacroExecution_2
a3 -.- b3((b))
b3 -.- c3((c))
end
end
c3 --> quit(( ))
```
## Usage
You need to bind the `(dmacro-play-macro)` to a key sequence.
```lua
vim.keymap.set({ "i", "n" }, '', '(dmacro-play-macro)')
```
```viml
inoremap (dmacro-play-macro)
nnoremap (dmacro-play-macro)
```
