prezto/modules/editor/README.md
Indrajit Raychaudhuri 1ff9421f7b general: Update documentation better qualifying runcom paths
Zsh and Prezto files don't always reside in `~/`. Instead, they have
a more spec compliant location (`${ZDOTDIR:-$HOME}/`). Make them
unambiguous in the documentation. Likewise, for `$GNUPGHOME`.

Further, add instruction for optionally setting up Prezto in
`$XDG_CONFIG_HOME`.

While at this, also add clarification on relative ordering of some of
the modules, apply more formatting tweaks and doc improvements.

# Editor
Sets editor specific key bindings options and variables.
## Options
- `BEEP` beep on error in line editor.
## Variables
- `WORDCHARS` treat a given set of characters as part of a word.
## Settings
### Key bindings
To enable key bindings, add the following to _`${ZDOTDIR:-$HOME}/.zpreztorc`_,
and replace `'<bindings>'` with `'emacs'` or `'vi'`.
```sh
zstyle ':prezto:module:editor' key-bindings '<bindings>'
```
### Dot Expansion
To enable the auto conversion of .... to ../.., add the following to
_`${ZDOTDIR:-$HOME}/.zpreztorc`_.
```sh
zstyle ':prezto:module:editor' dot-expansion 'yes'
```
### PS Context
To enable the prompt context to be set, add the following to
_`${ZDOTDIR:-$HOME}/.zpreztorc`_.
```sh
zstyle ':prezto:module:editor' ps-context 'yes'
```
## Theming
To indicate when the editor is in the primary keymap (emacs or viins), add
the following to your `theme_prompt_setup` function.
```sh
zstyle ':prezto:module:editor:info:keymap:primary' format '>>>'
```
To indicate when the editor is in the primary keymap (emacs or viins) insert
mode, add the following to your `theme_prompt_setup` function.
```sh
zstyle ':prezto:module:editor:info:keymap:primary:insert' format 'I'
```
To indicate when the editor is in the primary keymap (emacs or viins) overwrite
mode, add the following to your `theme_prompt_setup` function.
```sh
zstyle ':prezto:module:editor:info:keymap:primary:overwrite' format 'O'
```
To indicate when the editor is in the alternate keymap (vicmd), add the
following to your `theme_prompt_setup` function.
```sh
zstyle ':prezto:module:editor:info:keymap:alternate' format '<<<'
```
To indicate when the editor is completing, add the following to your
`theme_prompt_setup` function.
```sh
zstyle ':prezto:module:editor:info:completing' format '...'
```
Then add `$editor_info[context]`, where context is _keymap_, _insert_, or
_overwrite_, to `$PROMPT` or `$RPROMPT`.
## Convenience Functions
### bindkey-all
Provides a function `bindkey-all` which can be useful for checking how all of
the keys are bound. Normal `bindkey` command will only list the keys bound for
one keymap, which is not as useful if you want to grep through the output. The
keymap's names go to stderr so when you grep through `bindkey-all`'s output you
will still see the headings and can tell which keymap each binding goes to.
It will also pass through arguments so you can use bindkey-all to set bindings
for all keymaps at once. If provided arguments it will _not_ print out the
names of each of the keymaps, and just run the command for each keymap.
