Support for hybrid mode commands?
I use spacemacs w/ hybrid mode, as such, I often use kill-word, delete-char and probably other non-evil commands. Would you be opposed to adding support for them? I can probably submit some pulls if you're interested. Thanks!
I think that would be ok, as long as supporting those commands doesn't introduce too much complexity. If you do want to submit pulls don't forget to add tests for every command introduced.
Maybe I'm dong something wrong, but the tests don't pass locally on emacs 25.1
The first to fail is "Scenario: Copy paste a word with count"
Yep. I can repro the issue in my environment as well. If you have two cursors and you do a 3yw only the last cursor yanks 3 words, the first only yanked 1.
I don't think I'm seeing any of those errors. Here is my debug output https://gist.github.com/aaronjensen/08453fcc498a1244d44b
Then the only thing that seems to be different for you is your version of emacs, I use 24.5.1 and I'm on a mac. I'm not sure whether that should make a difference though.
I'm on a mac as well, I installed with: brew install emacs --with-cocoa --with-librsvg --with-gnutls --with-imagemagick --HEAD

Ok, I'll try to install emacs with the same options as you when I get home and hopefully I'll be able to reproduce the problem.
Is your version of emacs 25.1? I tried installing exactly as you but I always get 24.5.1
You may need to brew link emacs after

Oh, I wonder if I have to uninstall my current version first. I always get this output from brew
Warning: emacs-24.5 already installed
Ah yeah. Or brew reinstall with the same args

I can reproduce the problem but I'm not sure I'll have too much time to spend on this since 25.1 is not really a stable version
Ok, no worries. I will say it's quite stable other than this issue and quite a bit faster. It's what I recommend people install now a days on a mac.
Cool, I'll take a look when I have some time. But, from what I can tell commands that contain a number don't work due to the number not being read during a command input. Not sure what the reason is but the relevant code is in evil-mc-command-record.el
I finally got around to fixing the tests for emacs 25.1 via this commit efc5e134524b9a88e62c3c2248112c0e8331500c
Wow, that looks involved. I'm not familiar enough with it to tell what the change is that emacs 25 actually forced. Was it a breaking change in emacs 25 that caused it, not a bug?
Well, I took advantage of this opportunity to add some more tests and do some minor refactoring. The changes relevant to emacs 25 are only in evil-mc-command-record.el
Any progress on this? I am using normal Emacs. The thing I don't like about multiple-cursors package is that it doesn't give me functionality of evil-mc-make-and-goto-next-match. But since I am a normal Emacs user jumping into normal mode isn't beneficial to me. I am okay with evil being installed. But I don't want it to be enabled. I know that is not possible. Still, do you have any solution to using evil-mc-make-and-goto-next-match without jumping to normal mode? I don't want evil to be enabled.
The following configuration gets evil-mc mostly working with hybrid-style editing:
(require 'cl-lib)
(require 'multiple-cursors)
(customize-set-variable
'evil-mc-custom-known-commands
(cl-loop for cmd in mc--default-cmds-to-run-for-all
if (not (assoc cmd evil-mc-known-commands))
collect `(,cmd . ((:default
. evil-mc-execute-default-call-with-count)))))
That is, I'm just taking all the commands that multiple-cursors.el deems safe and are not known by evil-mc-known-commands, and adding them to evil-mc-custom-known-commands with the standard executor.
For reference, below is the list of the commands added. I think it would be good to add most of these to evil-mc-known-commands so hybrid editing could be better supported out of the box. Though it might be quite a bit of work to create tests for all of them...
