leap-wide.nvim

leap.nvim has a problem on labelling wide characters.

This plugin provides an ad-hoc way to fix the issue.

The problem should actually be solved by leap.nvim itself or by vim.api.nvim_buf_set_extmark.

Usage

Wrap leap.leap() to support labels on wide characters

---@param ... any arguments passed to leap.leap()
local function leap(...)
  -- call fix_labelling() on LeapEnter to overlay spaces with the length same as the strdisplaywidth of base text to be labelled
  local autocmd = vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd("User", {
    pattern = "LeapEnter",
    once = true,
    callback = function()
      -- if you want to update leap.state, do it before fix_labelling()
      require("leap-wide").fix_labelling()
    end
  })

  -- leap!
  local ok, err = pcall(require("leap").leap, ...)

  -- cleaning
  if not ok then
    -- ensure LeapEnter autocmd is deleted when leap fails without invoking the event
    pcall(vim.api.nvim_del_autocmd, autocmd)
    error(err)
  end
end
