I’m writing a plugin for commenting the code in special way and it should act a bit different when called in visual or normal modes.
Is there a function or some way to determine the mode in which the user is (was) when the function was called?
There’s
http://vimdoc.sourceforge.net/htmldoc/eval.html#mode%28%29
but that might not work since you’re probably going to start command mode in the rhs of the mapping.
A more robust way would be to set up slightly different mappings like
and use the argument value to know what mode the user was in.
