Re: what is the way to find out if a certain text object is already defined?

I think I was misunderstood...

What I mean is: I have already installed a bunch of plugins that provide new text objects. I have a 'custom cheat sheet' with all those text objects, but I dont have it with me now. 

I need a way to find you if a text object (not a native one!) is alreadly defined (by a plugin or in my vimrc for instance). Is there such a way?

hi

I am considering adding some mapping to define a new text object (for
numbers) as iN, aN etc. The thing is I already have a number of plugins
for text objects. I don't have my custom cheatsheat here, so I cannot
verify iN is available.

What would be the way to list all text objects defined from inside vim,
or at least check iN is available?

thanks

No need for a custom external cheat sheet, there is the built-in help.
        :help iN
        :help aN
send back to :in[sert] and :an[oremenu] so these two "moves" are not yet defined in Normal or Operator-pending mode. Similarly there is no help for v_iN or v_aN so they aren't taken (yet) in Visual mode either.

Near the top of
        :help quickref.txt
you can see a two-column list with among others
        |Q_tm|  motion: Text object
        |Q_to|  Text objects
so double-clicking either of these green helptags (or hitting Ctrl-] on them) will bring you to the corresponding help. Or you could use just
        :help Q_tm
        :help Q_to
for the same purpose. That's a built-in cheat sheet for you.


Best regards,
Tony.
