vim-startuptime and vim-win

I recently implemented two Vim plugins (they also work on Neovim).

vim-startuptime

vim-startuptime is a plugin for viewing Vim startup event timing—reported in milliseconds. This can be helpful when trying to modify your configuration to improve Vim’s startup time.

  • Launch vim-startuptime with :StartupTime.
  • Press <space> on events to get additional information.
  • Press <enter> on sourcing events to load the corresponding file in a new split.
  • Access documentation with :help vim-startuptime.

The source code—along with installation instructions—is available on GitHub:

vim-win

vim-win is a plugin for managing windows, including 1) selecting windows, 2) swapping window buffers, and 3) resizing windows. Full functionality requires vim>=8.2 or nvim>=0.4.0.

  • Enter vim-win with <leader>w or :Win.
  • Arrows or hjkl keys are used for movement.
  • Change windows with movement keys or numbers.
  • Hold <shift> and use movement keys to resize the active window.
  • Press s or S followed by a movement key or window number, to swap buffers.
  • Press ? to show a help message.
  • Press <esc> to leave vim-win.
  • Access documentation with :help vim-win.
