Vim mode: edit inner word

[Schabernack]

Suppose the following situation with your cursor between 3 and 4: 123|456

Expected behavior when pressing diw when using vim mode: all numbers get deleted. We stay in command mode.

Actual behavior: when i is pressed, the terminal switches to insert mode.

Zsh emulates vi, not Vim, and it's not a full implementation.

[Schabernack]

I wasn't aware this is a vim feature. Too bad.

I also wish it was a more full implementation; there's a lot missing.

[sorin-ionescu]

It's a shell, not a text editor.

You can always use full vim to edit your command line: http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/6620/how-to-edit-command-line-in-full-screen-editor-in-zsh

@kyounger Great! Thank you

For anyone else, pressing ESC+V is already implemented by modules/editor/init.zsh

Isn't this somewhat closer to what you are trying? #636 (https://github.com/hchbaw/opp.zsh).
