Does those two mappings help you?

I gave it a try, and it works. But:
- I need to press <"> before typing the work and <'> at the end of the
word, not very convenient if I have to go through a file to correct it
(in normal mode for instance).
Yes, this solution is not meant for post-processing.
- I can not use those two keys anymore (I had to select from visual
mode what you had written, yank it, and then paste it in order to
write them in this message).
That's what I meant with "You might want a toggle".
E.g.:
==> ~/.vim/plugin/guillemets-toggle.vim <==
let s:mapped = 0
fun! ToggleGuillemets()
if s:mapped
iunmap "
iunmap '
else
imap <expr> " getline('.')[col('.')-2]=~'\S' ? ' »' : '« '
imap <expr> ' getline('.')[col('.')-2]=~'\S' ? ' »' : '« '
endif
let s:mapped = 1 - s:mapped
endfun
nmap <F10> :call ToggleGuillemets()<CR>
imap <F10> <C-\><C-O>:call ToggleGuillemets()<CR>
===========================================
Then <F10> toggles the mappings on or off.
- it would be easier to place the cursor under a word (or visual
select several words) and then hit a key to achieve my goal).
You might want something like:
nnoremap <Leader>gu "adi"hc2l«<Char-0xa0><Esc>"apa<Char-0xa0>»<Esc>
It'll work inside a quoted string. Basic idea is to yank out the text
from between two double quotes, using Vim's text objects. Then change
the quotes themselves into «(nbsp)text(nbsp)»
Fully broken down:
nnoremap <Leader>gu "adi"hc2l«<Char-0xa0><Esc>"apa<Char-0xa0>»<Esc>
nnoremap - normal mode mapping, but don't map things on the rhs
<Leader>gu - choose a key binding
"a - use register 'a'
d - delete
i" - inner quote
h - move left one char
c2l - change 2 letters
« - guillemet
<Char-0xa0> - alternate way to enter nbsp
<Esc> - exit insert mode
"a - use register 'a'
p - put text after cursor
a - append
<Char-0xa0> - another nbsp
» - closing
guillemet
<Esc> - and finish
And, since email will probably ruin the vertical alignment:
nnoremap - normal mode mapping, but don't map things on the rhs
<Leader>gu - choose a key binding
"a - use register 'a'
d - delete
i" - inner quote
h - move left one char
c2l - change 2 letters
« - guillemet
<Char-0xa0> - alternate way to enter nbsp
<Esc> - exit insert mode
"a - use register 'a'
p - put text after cursor
a - append
<Char-0xa0> - another nbsp
» - closing guillemet
<Esc> - and finish
Most of those pieces should be :help-able. (e.g.:
:help h
:help d
)
I see that Christian answered too, so I will (can not write single
quote anymore ;-)) go through his message and come back later.
He had better :h[elp] references.
Thanks for your reply Ben, very informative. The more I learn vim, the
more I understand how far I am from mastering it (did not Einstein say
something like that?)
Practice practice practice. One of the most important things is to
learn how to use the :help system. Vim's built-in :help is extremely
useful and comprehensive.
