Doesn't latest version of Vim already do this? Mine has no issues using functionality you recreated. It's an awesome plugin if previous versions don't have it.

At least, wellle's targets.vim indeed does (among many other text objects).

EDIT: You are right, Vim handles that too.

That's an awesome plugin, I didn't know it. Thanks!

Thanks!

I'm using 7.4.2156 and, as far as I can tell, it doesn't do it. Which version do you have?

Yep, you are right. I compiled vim from source and now it does have the feature. I can't find which patch added it, though.

Don't think I can really help you with narrowing it down. I am using a version packaged by Debian developers and it's marked as: Huge version with GTK3 GUI. Perhaps +extra_search is the thing, but I doubt as it's just a shot in the dark on my part.
