How do I select text inside angle brackets?

Explanation

The vi< command selects the text inside angle brackets (< >). This is useful for HTML/XML attribute editing and template syntax.

How it works

• v enters visual mode
• i< is the "inner angle brackets" text object
• Selects everything between < and > without the brackets

Example

<div class="main">

With the cursor inside the brackets, vi< selects div class="main".

Tips

• va< includes the brackets in the selection
• ci< changes inside angle brackets
• di< deletes inside angle brackets
• Useful for editing HTML tags and generic type parameters
• Works with nested angle brackets
