Hi,
after using 0.6pre for a couple of weeks, I really prefer this solution
to the 0.5 way! Still, I have some suggestions for further improvement:
1. Add leading zeroes to make the numbers unique. Now, if, e.g. there
are
11 links, and I want hint no. 1, I have to type 1 + enter. Typing 01
would be simpler in my opinion. Alternatively, skip the short
numbers,
and start with the first having all digits, i.e, 10 -> 20 in the
case of
11 links.
2. "Throw away" superfluous keypresses, e.g. 0,5 seconds after
completing a
quickhint entry. Why? I had an issue with two links, let's say "bar"
and
"back". I typed "bar" quickly, not noting that "ba" would be
sufficient.
The result was that the extra "r" caused a reload of the current
page.
I have also started using the "caret" mode, which is absolutely great!
This
used to be one of the cases where an awkward mouse usage was required.
But I
am missing the "y" for "yank" keypress when I am in visual mode.
Wouldn't that be natural to add? Now, I have to do Ctrl-C, which isn't
very "vim-ish" :-)
Sorry for complaining about this wonderful piece of software, but I hope
you like some feedback anyway :-)
