Does anyone know of a vim plugin or script to convert special characters to their corresponding HTML entities? -
I develop websites for corporate clients, so we & reg;, & trade; Etc., sometimes I paste into huge blocks of copy, which may contain beautiful quotes (& ldquo; & rdquo;) or other weird characters from the word processor.
So, my question is: Can anyone convert a Vime plugin or a script, which can swoop into one, all these characters in HTML institutions?
I think that it covers all the bases of institutions, it would be good:
So, for the above characters, they have and reg;
, and business;
, & amp; Ldquo;
, will be replaced with , & Amp; Rdquo;
, etc.
I tried htmlspecialchars vimball (), but no dice, it replaces HTML-discrete characters just like PHP HTMLsepcialchars function, and does not cover any extra special characters.
I will suggest Tim Pope's plugin. It provides using mapping: [x
and ] x
respectively.
