neuron.vim

Manage your Zettelkasten with the help of neuron in {n}vim.

(This is an actively maintaned fork of ihsanturk/neuron.vim that works with newer versions of neuron and changes basically everything, with extra features, commands and different options.)

Requirements

• neuron
• fzf
• ag if you intend to use the content search command.

Installation

Using vim-plug

Plug 'junegunn/fzf.vim'
Plug 'fiatjaf/neuron.vim'

Usage

1. Open a zettel with vim or nvim. On nvim it should a. Show a virtual floating text on the first line saying how many backlinks it has. b. Show a virtual title for each linked zettel in the body.
2. Type gzZ to show a list of backlinks. Selecting one will navigate to it.
3. Type gzz to show a list of all zettels, you can search their titles. Selecting one will navigate to it.
4. Type gzi to show the same gzz list. Selecting one will insert a link to it right in front of the your cursor. gzI instead will insert a folgezettel link ([[[...]]]).
5. If you put your cursor on top of a link to another zettel and press gzo you'll navigate to that.
6. gzl will insert a link to the previous zettel you visited. gzL will do the same but with a folgezettel.
7. To go back after editing another zettel type gzu.
8. Typing gzu repeatedly multiple times will cycle between the two last visited zettels.
9. If you want to go back multiple times in the history of visited zettels, use gzU (and gzP will go forward).
10. To create a new blank zettel, type gzn.
11. If you type gzN you will create a new zettel using the current word under the cursor as its title. If you're in visual selection mode gzN will instead use the selected text (only the first line if there are more than one selected). gzN will always replace the selected text or current word with a link to the newly-created zettel.
12. gzs works like gzz, but instead it searches the content of the zettels, not only the title. For this it calls the external command ag.
