Yikes! Text-objects are way more useful without using visual mode,

Ok , I'm convinced text objects are wonderful. Is there a way to get
the line range covered by a text object to be used in user defined
commands ? I can see that you can yank the object itself and use the
yanked text in your command but say that for whatever reason you
want the line range or even better the byte range which the object
occupies. Is there a way to get that ?


Getting the line range or the byte range covered by an object into user-defined commands is possible: it's what "operator-pending mappings" are all about. But I don't pretend that I really understand it.


Best regards,
Tony.
