make f and T as an operator multiline and add t and T

[desmap]

example:

This is a 
text in two lines

imagine the cursor is on the T.
With clever-f for example dfo would delete till the two in the second line. Now nothing happens.

and it would be awesome to have also t and T
Edit: I meant as 'motion' not operator command

It's useful, but I don't have time for it right now, PR welcome.

[desmap]

Yes, tbh I started to like smartf, it's really neat and fast and it's JS!
IDK, I don't have time either and I don't have a clue how and where to start. I mean I just put a folder in coc/extensions, call it coc-smartf2, clone/fork your code, make npm install and write some node.js?! And how do I use LSP to talk to nvim, is there a good resource to get into that stuff?
Or is all I need { Neovim, ExtensionContext, workspace } from 'coc.nvim' and LSP is not used with smartf?

[chemzqm]

There's no LSP stuff with coc-smartf.

For develop coc extensions, it's recommended to use vim's rtp: https://github.com/neoclide/coc.nvim/wiki/Using-coc-extensions#use-vims-plugin-manager-for-coc-extension

It uses webpack to compile the code, so you need run webpack --watch in extension root when developing.

@chemzqm a quick update on this topic:

Getting in your code would be a nice endeavor but I guess, I am as busy as you are. Moreover, I would need much more time to get into your codebase and you are already familiar with it. I looked briefly at the sources and my first thought was that coc-smartf should actually work out of the box as a motion when you map it with omap or just map. So, I guess there must be some deeper architectural problem, otherwise creating a motion/text object should be straightforward.

However, I saw also that you fixed the easymotion bug in the coc.vim repo (btw, great idea to check for the 'Target' string). I just tried easymotion again and it feels good but tbh I now think that coc-smartf is way better! If it had the motion feature it would be by far the best solution on the market, it has the best usability. The last days, I exchanged the three plugins clever-f, easymotion, quick-scope with coc-smartf only. Just now, I had to reinstall them all again because I need this motion feature, I use it all the time with vim operators. It's crucial.

I think coc-smartf could be also a huge opportunity to bring even more people closer to the coc-ecosystem. Like content marketing, it could even create more interest for coc's universe. Because like everything with coc.vim, coc-smartf is quite thought through.

So if it's an easy fix and if I were you, I would add motion to coc-smartf.

[chemzqm]

You're free to use any vim plugin you want to, coc.nvim tried to work with them instead of replace them.

It's not hard, just not high priority for me.
