vim-expand

Allows you to filter your current line or visual selection through the expand function in place via the :Expand command. This allows you to write things like the following.

function {add,remove}User() {
    // ...
}

And expand it to this.

function addUser() {
    // ...
}

function removeUser() {
    // ...
}

You can also use things like {1..10} to iterate through numbers as well as environment variables such as $HOME, so it works much like bash brace and variable expansion. Read the expand documentation for all the details, but basically it supports a lot of things.

Usage

Simply execute :Expand on your desired line or visually select a block of lines, such as the function above, and then execute :Expand. Vim will automatically populate the range in front of the command for you. Of course you can enter a manual range with :1,3Expand.
