Re: ANN: vim-textobj-quotes - text objects for the closest pairs of quotes of any type

Thanks for your feedback! One major difference with the built-in text objects is that this plugin provides a single text object that handles three types of quotes in a unified way, i.e., with a single key binding.

Another difference is that this plugin supports multiple lines, for example:

Before:

some |text "this is
a multiline
string"

After diq:

some text "|"

And you are right, as in examples 3 and 6 it can jump back, which the built-in text objects don't support. Please let me know if you think there are other interesting use cases :)

Cheers,
Anton
