# Markdown Vim Mode
+[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/plasticboy/vim-markdown.svg)](https://travis-ci.org/plasticboy/vim-markdown)
+
Syntax highlighting, matching rules and mappings for [the original Markdown](http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/) and extensions.
## Installation
If you use [Vundle](https://github.com/gmarik/vundle), add the following line to your `~/.vimrc`:
- Bundle 'plasticboy/vim-markdown'
+ Plugin 'godlygeek/tabular'
+ Plugin 'plasticboy/vim-markdown'
+
+The `tabular` plugin come *before* `vim-markdown`.
-And then run inside Vim:
+Then run inside Vim:
:so ~/.vimrc
- :BundleInstall
+ :PluginInstall
If you use [Pathogen](https://github.com/tpope/vim-pathogen), do this:
let g:vim_markdown_initial_foldlevel=1
```
+**Disable Default Key Mappings**
+
+Add the following line to your `.vimrc` to disable default key mappings. You can map them by yourself with `<Plug>` mappings.
+
+```vim
+let g:vim_markdown_no_default_key_mappings=1
+```
+
+**Syntax extensions**
+
+The following options control which syntax extensions will be turned on.
+
+LaTeX math: `$ $`, `$$ $$`, escapable as `\$ \$` and `\$\$ \$\$`:
+
+```vim
+let g:vim_markdown_math=1
+```
## Mappings
The following work on normal and visual modes:
-- `]]`: go to next header.
-- `[[`: go to previous header. Contrast with `]c`.
-- `][`: go to next sibling header if any.
-- `[]`: go to previous sibling header if any.
-- `]c`: go to Current header.
-- `]u`: go to parent header (Up).
+- `]]`: go to next header. `<Plug>(Markdown_MoveToNextHeader)`
+- `[[`: go to previous header. Contrast with `]c`. `<Plug>(Markdown_MoveToPreviousHeader)`
+- `][`: go to next sibling header if any. `<Plug>(Markdown_MoveToNextSiblingHeader)`
+- `[]`: go to previous sibling header if any. `<Plug>(Markdown_MoveToPreviousSiblingHeader)`
+- `]c`: go to Current header. `<Plug>(Markdown_MoveToCurHeader)`
+- `]u`: go to parent header (Up). `<Plug>(Markdown_MoveToParentHeader)`
+
+## Commands
+
+- `:HeaderDecrease`:
+
+ Decrease level of all headers in buffer: `h2` to `h1`, `h3` to `h2`, etc.
+
+ If range is given, only operate in the range.
+
+ If an `h1` would be decreased, abort.
+
+ For simplicity of implementation, Setex headers are converted to Atx.
+
+- `:HeaderIncrease`: Analogous to `:HeaderDecrease`, but increase levels instead.
+
+- `:SetexToAtx`:
+
+ Convert all Setex style headers in buffer to Atx.
+
+ If a range is given, e.g. hit `:` from visual mode, only operate on the range.
+
+- `:TableFormat`: Format the table under the cursor [like this](http://www.cirosantilli.com/markdown-styleguide/#tables).
+
+ Requires [Tabular](https://github.com/godlygeek/tabular).
+
+ The input table *must* already have a separator line as the second line of the table.
+ That line only needs to contain the correct pipes `|`, nothing else is required.
+
+- `:Toc`: create a quickfix vertical window navigable table of contents with the headers.
+
+ Hit `<Enter>` on a line to jump to the corresponding line of the markdown file.
+
+- `:Toch`: Same as `:Toc` but in an horizontal window.
+
+- `:Toct`: Same as `:Toc` but in a new tab.
+
+- `:Tocv`: Same as `:Toc` for symmetry with `:Toch` and `Tocv`.
