Jump back and forth while being in insert mode

backout.nvim

📖 Overview

backout.nvim is a minimal neovim plugin designed to move inline while remaining in insert mode. This plugin is inspired by functionality from auto-pairs that I couldn't find in other auto-pair plugins.

Example

🚀 Installation

• lazy.nvim

return {
	"AgusDOLARD/backout.nvim",
	opts = {},
	keys = {
        -- Define your keybinds
		{ "<M-b>", "<cmd>lua require('backout').back()<cr>", mode = { "i" } },
		{ "<M-n>", "<cmd>lua require('backout').out()<cr>", mode = { "i" } },
	},
}

⚙️ Options

chars

A string containing characters or sequences to jump between

    chars = "(){}[]`'\"<>" -- default chars
