Key Mappings

This plugin doesn't supply any default mappings.

""" Configuration example
" Echo translation in the cmdline
nmap <silent> <Leader>t <Plug>Translate
vmap <silent> <Leader>t <Plug>TranslateV
" Display translation in a window
nmap <silent> <Leader>w <Plug>TranslateW
vmap <silent> <Leader>w <Plug>TranslateWV
" Replace the text with translation
nmap <silent> <Leader>r <Plug>TranslateR
vmap <silent> <Leader>r <Plug>TranslateRV
" Translate the text in clipboard
nmap <silent> <Leader>x <Plug>TranslateX

Once the translation window is opened, type <C-w>p to jump into it and again to jump back

Beside, there is a function which can be used to scroll window, only works in neovim.

nnoremap <silent><expr> <M-f> translator#window#float#has_scroll() ?
                            \ translator#window#float#scroll(1) : "\<M-f>"
nnoremap <silent><expr> <M-b> translator#window#float#has_scroll() ?
                            \ translator#window#float#scroll(0) : "\<M-b>"

Commands

Translate

:Translate[!] [--engines=ENGINES] [--target_lang=TARGET_LANG] [--source_lang=SOURCE_LANG] [your text]

Translate the text from the source language source_lang to the target language target_lang with engine, echo the result in the cmdline

If engines is not given, use g:translator_default_engines

If text is not given, use the text under the cursor

If target_lang is not given, use g:translator_target_lang

The command can also be passed to a range, i.e., :'<,'>Translate ..., which translates text in visual selection

If ! is provided, the plugin will perform a reverse translating by switching target_lang and source_lang

Examples(you can use <Tab> to get completion):

:Translate                                  " translate the word under the cursor
:Translate --engines=google,youdao are you ok " translate text `are you ok` using google and youdao engines
:2Translate ...                             " translate line 2
:1,3Translate ...                           " translate line 1 to line 3
:'<,'>Translate ...                         " translate selected lines

:TranslateW[!] [--engines=ENGINES] [--target_lang=TARGET_LANG] [--source_lang=SOURCE_LANG] [your text]

Like :Translate..., but display the translation in a window

TranslateR

:TranslateR[!] [--engines=ENGINES] [--target_lang=TARGET_LANG] [--source_lang=SOURCE_LANG] [your text]
