Mark

Use m{mark} to set a mark at the current cursor position and ' or ` to jump back to it. Uppercase marks are saved in Spyder's configuration folder so they persist across sessions.

Vim keys

• ^A : Add [count] to number
• ^X : Subtract [count] to number
• K : Inspect current object
• gd : Go to definition.
• gt, gT : Cycle to next/previous file.
• zz, zt, tb : Cursor line to some locations of screen.
• ZZ : Save and close current file.
• q, @: macro

Jump list

The jump list is a core Vim feature that tracks recently visited locations. Okvim records each position so you can return with Ctrl+o and move forward with Ctrl+i. Locations are added when opening files with Ctrl+p and when running gd. Because Spyder's "go to definition" works asynchronously, Okvim pushes the current location immediately and adds the new one once navigation finishes. If the cursor never moves within two seconds, that temporary entry is discarded.

Special keys

• <leader>f : autoformat the curruent file
• <leader>b : toggle a breakpoint
• <leader>r : run the selection or current line in the console.
• <leader>enter : run cell and advance
• <leader>p : Spyder switcher
• <leader>s : Spyder symbol switcher
• [d : go to previous warning/error
• ]d : go to next warning/error
• gc{motion} : toggle comments (works in visual mode)
  • gcc : toggle the comment for the current line

Vim Surround

• Supported surroundings: '"()[]{}bB

The following actions are supported:

• ys{motion}{surroundings} in normal mode: add surroundings in pairs.
• ds{surroundings} in normal mode: delete surroundings in pairs.
• cs{surroundings}{surroundings} in normal mode: change surroundings in pairs.
• S{surroundings} in visual mode: add surroundings in pairs.

Fuzzy path finder

Press Ctrl+p to open the fuzzy path finder. Spyder uses the same shortcut as a global command, so you may need to reassign Spyder's default Ctrl+p binding to use this feature. Use ^p, ^n, ^f, ^b, ^u, and ^d to navigate the list.

Config page

Easymotion

EasyMotion commands work with any operator that accepts a motion.

Motion Command	Description
<leader><leader> w	Start of word forwards
<leader><leader> b	Start of word backwards
<leader><leader> j	Start of line forwards
<leader><leader> k	Start of line backwards
<leader><leader> f <char>	Find character forwards
<leader><leader> F <char>	Find character backwards

Search two characters (like vim-sneak)

Jump to any location specified by two characters.

Works across lines, with operators (including repeat .), motion-repeat (; and ,), and visual mode.

Press s followed by two characters. For operators use z because s belongs to vim-surround.

When there are matches in another group, hints appear around the group.
