[Github-comments] [geany/geany-plugins] vimode: Add special handling to include destination char for some commands (#1104)

[Jiří Techet]

For

abcde;

simple 't;' does the right thing and places the cursor on top of character
'e' just before ';'. However, for composed commands such as 'dt;', vim
also deletes the character 'e' which vimode currently doesn't.

Vim behaves in a bit inconsistent way regarding this behavior - while
for 'dw' (delete all until next word) it doesn't delete the first character
of the next word onto which the cursor is placed, for 'de' (delete until
next word end) it includes the final character of the deleted word. This
behavior makes sense from the use case point of view but makes handling
of such situations inconsistent.

This patch lists functions which behave this way and includes the
destination character to the selection.

Fixes #1052.
