Hi Peter,
It can (see below), but then again, the other text objects could be
implemented as vimscript as well. Extending the existing text objects to
include parameters seems like a natural fit.
David
nmap <silent> cim :call ChangeInnerParam()<cr>
function ChangeInnerParam()
call s:selectInnerParam()
normal x
startinsert
endfunction
function s:selectInnerParam()
call search('[(,]', "bW")
normal lv
call search('[(,)]', "W")
let c = getline(".")[col(".")-1]
if (c == '(')
" skip over a nested param list
normal %
call search('[,)]', "W")
endif
normal h
endfunction

Hello,
I believe that can be done using Vimscript, so you could try that first.
regards,
Peter
