Swap characters

[Back]

Swaps the character at the cursor postion, and the next character to the right. The if statement emulates the emacs feature.

if (search("$", $cursor, "regex") == $cursor)
{
   backward_character()
   backward_character()
}
c = get_character($cursor)
delete_next_character()
forward_character()
insert_string(c)

This new version transposes the chars on either side of the cursor instead of the next two:

if (search("^", $cursor, "regex") != $cursor) {
   backward_character()
   c = get_character($cursor)
   delete_next_character()
   forward_character()
   insert_string(c)
   backward_character()
   }
else
   beep()
