vim-movelines

Vim plugin for moving lines in normal and visual mode.

Installation

If you use vim-plug add Plug to your config Plug 'krcs/vim-movelines'

Or just copy movelines.vim into ~/.vim/plugin or $HOME/vimfiles/plugin directory.

For normal mode call MoveLineNormal(direction). For virtual mode call MoveLinesVisual(direcion).

direction - Up,Down,Left,Right, words or only first letter.

In the .vimrc file insert following lines to map keys, I am using Alt+[cursor key]:

nnoremap <silent> <A-k> :call MoveLineNormal("u")<CR>
nnoremap <silent> <A-j> :call MoveLineNormal("d")<CR>
nnoremap <silent> <A-h> :call MoveLineNormal("l")<CR>
nnoremap <silent> <A-l> :call MoveLineNormal("r")<CR>

xnoremap <silent> <A-k> :call MoveLinesVisual("Up")<CR>
xnoremap <silent> <A-h> :call MoveLinesVisual("left")<CR>
xnoremap <silent> <A-l> :call MoveLinesVisual("Right")<CR>
xnoremap <silent> <A-j> :call MoveLinesVisual("down")<CR>
