Vimium: make global mark easier

Created on 16 Sep 2015  路  5Comments  路  Source: philc/vimium

I do really enjoy the global mark but I think the Capital for global is little bit redundant. I also understand it is better separate global marks and local marks.

Can we have on option that we can have 'qwertyuiop' as global mark and rest of the keys as local mark?

Just because this issue is the top result for this search, the correct way to enable this feature is:

map ` Marks.activateGotoMode swap
map m Marks.activateCreateMode swap

Interesting.

My own experience is: I _never_ use local marks, and having to use shift for global marks slows things down.

It's difficult to see how you could do this without a new option of some kind, as it would change the existing interface. We could add an (advanced) option to switch upper/lower case for global/local marks. Or an option to make all marks global.

What are your usage patterns, @mrmr1993, @philc?

I don't use them, sorry.

@smblott-github If you could implement "option to switch upper/lower case for global/local marks. Or an option to make all marks global.", that would be really appreciated, a lot!

BTW, Vimium totally rocks, thank you all!

If anyone is still looking for this feature, you can use lowercase marks as global if you remove the event.shiftKey and condition from here like I've done in my branch here. You can then build and install your own Vimium using their instructions here.
