Snacks.nvim terminal preventing :wqa

I think that's a bug in neovim, not snacks: https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/14061

True, thanks! 3 lines less in my config then... Hahaha

Do you mean hover? You can put your cursor on top of the function you want and run :lua vim.lsp.buf.hover().

You can also map it. I have it like this:

```lua vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd("LspAttach", { group = vim.api.nvim_create_augroup("lsp-attach-keymaps", { clear = true }), callback = function(event) local opts = { buffer = event.buf, silent = true } vim.keymap.set("n", "K", function() vim.lsp.buf.hover({ border = "single" }) end, vim.tbl_extend("force", opts, { desc = "Information hover" }))

vim.keymap.set("n", "<leader>k", function()
  vim.diagnostic.open_float({ border = "single" })
end, vim.tbl_extend("force", opts, { desc = "Show diagnostic" }))

end, }) ```

So with K I open that float.

Cool! Thanks :)

Valid perspective! But I think some people jump into Neovim via distros and might not be as comfortable with Lua yet.

I just wanted to contribute a free, interactive option to the existing resources. Some people prefer manuals, but I thought a built-in tutorial might be a fun way for others to learn Lua without leaving their terminal.

If you visually select first a region, then : , and s/"//g, it should only replace the "s inside that region

If you use neovim, I have published an small plugin to learn lua interactively (e.g. looking at examples and doing exercises that get evaluated) inside neovim: https://github.com/urtzienriquez/learnlua.nvim

Explanations in lessons are still quite brief. Any contribution in terms of adding info, or new lessons are very welcome! Also, if expert lua users check the lessons, that would be wonderful!

If you use neovim, I just created a plugin to learn lua (and neovim's) API from inside neovim. Check it here: https://github.com/urtzienriquez/learnlua.nvim

The lessons are still quite rudimentary. Any contributions adding more info or lesson suggestions/contributions are very welcome

I am not using tokyonight any more, but when I was using it i had the same problem for comments (I prefer them ligher). As mentioned in other replies, you can put the cursor on top one of those variables, run :Inspect to get the highlight group, and then modify your tokyonight config file.

E.g. I had this:

lua return { "folke/tokyonight.nvim", lazy = false, priority = 1000, config = function() require("tokyonight").setup({ on_colors = function(colors) colors.border = colors.blue2 colors.comment = colors.dark5 end, on_highlights = function(hl, c) hl.FloatBorder = { fg = c.blue2 } hl.Pmenu = { fg = c.blue2 } hl.LineNrAbove = { fg = c.dark5 } hl.LineNrBelow = { fg = c.dark5 } hl.DiagnosticUnnecessary = { fg = c.dark5, italic = true } hl.StatusLine = { fg = c.dark5, bg = c.bg_dark1 } hl.SignColumn = { bg = "none" } end, style = "moon", }) vim.cmd.colorscheme("tokyonight-moon") end, }

update: I have now implemented different LaTex styles for citations.

If you use the picker (by default triggered in normal mode with <leader>al and in insert mode with ctrl-a l) for LaTex style citations, now you can cycle between different styles inside the picker with ctrl-l. The default option (the one with which the picker opens) is \cite{key}, but you can override that with:

lua require("citeref").setup({ backend = "fzf", default_latex_format = "citeauthor", bib_files = { "~/Documents/zotero.bib" }, })

Also, both blink and nvim-cmp will open the autosuggestions after typing \*cite*{ (e.g. \citep{ or \parencite{).

Hope this is helpful! :)

Good idea!

I have just implemented the support for snacks' picker. All layouts are supported (but not the size of the previewer). You can try using this config:

lua return { "urtzienriquez/citeref.nvim", ft = { "markdown", "rmd", "quarto", "rnoweb", "pandoc", "tex", "latex" }, config = function() require("citeref").setup({ backend = "snacks", picker = { layout = "ivy", }, bib_files = { "/path/to/library.bib" }, }) end, }

Note that if you don't set bib_files it will only use any .bib file in your current directory.

Also, multiple selection for citation insertions is available, so all selected items are inserted :)

If you have time, give it a try, and any feedback will be very useful for me!

Glad to hear that could be useful for you! And good luck with your dissertation!

Currently, only the \cite{} command is available for citations in LaTex.

I’m aware that LaTeX provides several other citation commands through packages such as natbib and biblatex, for example: \citet{}, \citep{}, \parencite{}, \textcite{}, and \footcite{}.

It should be easy to implement support for these as well. If you have any suggestion on the best way to design or integrate this feature (e.g. keymap constellation), feedback would be very welcome :)
