I just released an update to VsVim for Visual Studio 2010.  This is available on the extension manager in Visual Studio or can be downloaded directly at the following link.

New Features

I forgot to add an entry when 0.8.0 was released so this is the main set changes for both 0.8.0 and 0.8.1. 

  • Motions: G, gg, H, M, L, f, t, F, T
  • Options: startofline, virtualedit, visualbell, hlsearh, ignorecase, smartcase
  • Visual Mode – put, <, >, ~, all motions from normal mode
  • Normal Mode – D, ~, N, Ctrl-F, Ctrl-B,
  • Command Mode – qa

Notable Bug Fixes

  • VsVim will now look for a .vsvimrc file before .vimrc.  VsVim still does not support the full set of commands and certain combinations in users .vimrc caused issues. 
  • Closing a file while in Insert Mode will no longer cause an exception
  • Users can now map F1 properly in key remappings.  Useful in laptops where F1 is in the place of Escape

Future Plans

I will likely be releasing a 0.8.2 version in very early June when I return from vacation to clean up a few items that just didn’t make it into 0.8.1.

The current set of planned features for 0.9.0 can be seen here.  Mainly this is filling out the remaining gaps users have reported.  I’ve heard a few requests now for R# support in VsVim and that will be coming.  I do not know yet if that will go into 0.9.0 or a later release.  Will likely depend on how much feedback I get on this. 

Special Thanks

I wanted to take a second and thank all of my users who took the time to file issues and work with me to get a solid repro so I could fix the bug.  VsVim is currently a very community driven product and I would like to see it continue to be. 

Additionally thanks to JasonMal a coworker of mine who took the F# plunge and started helping me fix issues.  The help is most appreciated. 

The usual caveats and expectations

This extension is being released by me, not by Microsoft.  As such the support level for this extension is equivalent to the amount of free time I have to put into it.

Source for this release is available on the GitHub project site.  It and the associated binaries are released under the MS-PL.
