Script Roundup: mlessnau_block_shift, JavaScript Context Coloring

mlessnau_block_shift

mlessnau_block_shift is a small but well-formed plugin for selecting blocks of text and shifting the block up or down.

When in Visual mode, pressing <C-K> will move the selection up, and <C-j> will move it down. The corresponding functions are BlockShiftUp and BlockShiftDown, so you can rebind them if needed.

JavaScript Context Coloring

JavaScript Context Coloring (GitHub: bigfish / vim-js-context-coloring, License: MIT) is a plugin for JavaScript development. It requires Node, and colourises buffers based on scope.

The author, David Wilhelm, notes that the plugin was inspired by a 2012 talk by Douglas Crockford called Monads and Gonads.
