Vrapper acts as a wrapper for Eclipse text editors to provide a Vim-like input scheme for moving around and editing text. Unlike other plugins which embed Vim in Eclipse, Vrapper imitates the behaviour of Vim while still using whatever editor you have opened in the workbench. The goal is to have the comfort and ease which comes with the different modes, complex commands and count/operator/motion combinations which are the key features behind editing with Vim, while preserving the powerful features of the different Eclipse text editors, like code generation and refactoring. Vrapper tries to offer Eclipse users the best of both worlds.
Our update site also has optional Vrapper extensions which are not available via the Marketplace. They include additional support for programming languages and ports of various vimscripts. Specifically, they are:
- Split Editor commands (requires Eclipse 4+)
- Java extensions (requires JDT)
- C/C++ extensions (requires CDT)
- Python extensions (requires PyDev)
- Port of sneak.vim vimscript
- Port of surround.vim vimscript

- Port of exchange.vim vimscript
- Port of textobj-line.vim vimscript
