Very nice! I love seeing the download stats graph showing the last couple months of downloads with OS stats and embedded github README instructions. (ex: https://sublime.wbond.net/packages/EasyMotion (disclaimer: my plugin))
A feedback on that GIF: It's way to fast to understand what's going on. Even after looking at it for several cycles I don't get it. I suggest you slow down the playback :)
You press the shortcut for it, type the character you want to jump to, it highlights every instance of that character and shows you a unique shortcut key for each one, you then press that key to jump to your desired character.
I agree with both of you that the playback is too fast. I tried to get it slower a number of times, but the compression phase seems to take out some of the pauses...
I'll take another look to see if there's anything that I can do with the gif creation process I have.
If anyone has suggestions for gif recorders that give you control at this level, I'd love to know about it.
I switched methods and used GIFBrewery and was able to generate a better gif (I think). I'd be interested to hear if this one is easier to understand. Thanks!
I used GIFBrewery a couple times before and it works great [1] [2] [3].
It is easier to understand now, but I think you should stay on the last part a bit longer before looping it to make it clear that the animation finished.
I assumed it to work like that. I use Lokaltog's EasyMotion for Vim [1]. He also features a GIF that explains it which, on the other hand, is almost too slow.
Some feedback on the plugin some of the commands won't work on none US keyboards. The scandinavia keyboard uses shift + : to make ;
and that kinda fucks it up when your shortcuts are:
cmd-;
cmd-shift-;
I know you can remap in your plugin. Which is great. But this is just a small not to let you (and hopefully other plugin developers) know that this is an issue they should be aware of.
Thanks for the feedback danjessen. I'm struggling a little bit with fully internationalized shortcuts though. I don't have a great understanding about what non-chorded keys the keyboards of the world have available and it feels like just about any key combination won't be natively available for everyone. Hopefully the ability to remap via the config is easy and clear enough that it's not too much trouble.
