Default Key Mappings

Key	Type	Function Name	Function
an (all of the node)	Visual, Operator	<plug> *****	select all the node

as (all of the sentence)	Visual, Operator	<plug> *****	select the root node
is (the inside of the sentence)	Visual, Operator	<plug> *****	select all of the node(s) immediately dominated by the root
(unimplemented) nn (the next node)	Visual	<plug> *****	capture the next sister node
NN	Visual	<plug> *****	capture the previous sister node
(unimplemented) <LocalLeader>wn?	Normal, Operator, Visual		go to the beginning of the next sister node
(unimplemented) <LocalLeader>en?	Normal, Operator, Visual		go to the end of the current node
(unimplemented) <LocalLeader>bn?	Normal, Operator, Visual		go to the beginning of the current node
(unimplemented) <LocalLeader>gen?	Normal, Operator, Visual		go to the end of the previous node

Examples of Usage
