Notes of talk by wikimatze about "Plugins for writing a book with Vim"

vim-book-writing

## What I need

- Highlight bad words
- fixing grammar
- move text around (folding)
- autocorrection during spelling
- check spelling
- detect repetition and bad grammar
- version control ...


## vim-lexical https://github.com/reedes/vim-lexical

I have written a blog post about it ... but this plugin is better :)

- Custom dictionary, thesaurus, and spellchecking options for files or when calling a command.
- custom profiles


## vim-litecorrect https://github.com/reedes/vim-litecorrect

Lightweight auto correction for 300 words.

    Im -> I'm
    shouldnt -> shouldn't
    thats -> that's

Larger entries will slow down your Vim


## vim-wordy (https://github.com/reedes/vim-wordy)

Uncover usage problems with your writing with marvelous commands.

- `WeakWordy` ... starts the mode for showing weak words like "of course", "however"
- `WordWordy` ... shows redundant words

- `NextWordy` ... goes to the next mode
- `PrevWordy` ... goes to the next mode
- `NoWordy` ... will turn of the plugin
