possilbe feature request: option to wrap ";" jump list

[ghost]

After invoking sneak by hitting "s" and typing two letters, would hitting ";" jump to possible matches before the cursor position?

I am reluctant to overwrite s, but could part with S. Wrapping the jump list of ";" would allow for that.

Probably can be tied into the solution for #88 and #95

Sounds interesting. So there would be labels, and the wrapped ; jumping functionality. Best of all all worlds. (The former, jumping bidirectionally to labels, is also present in the easy-motion plug-in, but usually there are so few matches that your ; jump motion is more intuitive.)

Oh so this request is for bidirectional? Yeah there's another open issue for that. EasyMotion has ; if you set up the right <Plug> mappings. It's also getting a multi-window feature which seems useful.

Ok. I checked this out in easy-motion. There are three things to ameliorate:

• The mapping

nmap ; ""(easymotion-next)

will also overwrite ; after a common f/F or t/T search.

• The easymotion-next command will also jump offscreen. Instead it jump to the targets on screen in a loop.
• After invoking two character search, you have to chose a target first. Only after this, the ""(easy-motion-next) command is valid.

There is g:EasyMotion_space_jump_first, and one could map "" to it, but this will override "" in all occasions (and problem 2. persists). As in 1., it would be nice if the mapping is active only right after a search.

That been said, after a bit of tinkering, I am happy with the following setup:

nmap (easymotion-next)
xmap (easymotion-next)
omap (easymotion-next)
nmap (easymotion-prev)
xmap (easymotion-prev)
omap (easymotion-prev)

let g:EasyMotion_space_jump_first = 1

Consider these remarks as possible feature requests. It does it job already very well.
