BracketHighlighter vi_move_to_brackets

A BracketHighlighter plugin that implements Vintage's vi_move_to_brackets.

Why

Vintage's % command jumps between matching brackets. I wanted BH to drive this behavior because it can handle more bracket types. However, after some discussion with facelessuser, I learned that I would have to write a plugin to get the exact behavior I was looking for.

Usage

Make sure BracketHighlighter is installed.

1. Save vimovetobrackets.py under User\bh_modules.

2. Add the following to your key bindings:

   {
       "keys": ["%"],
       "command": "bh_key",
       "args": {
           "plugin": {
               "type": ["__all__"],
               "command": "User.bh_modules.vimovetobrackets"
           }
       },
       "context": [{"key": "setting.command_mode"}]
   }

3. Edit or create User\bh_core.sublime-settings and add "block_cursor_mode": true.
