The two plugins were added along with relevant configuration for each
If in neovim and sudo_askpass isn't set, vim will display a warning if
WW is typed in command mode
RIPGREP
ripgrep is now my grep command and I can use [c and ]c for moving
between quickfix entries
INCCOMMAND
Setting this makes vim show the results of substitute commands as they
are types
When indenting or unindenting a code block, I normally visually select
it and use < or >. However, both of these unselect the selection.
The mappings make vim also do gv after such an action which re-selects
the previous selection.
By default, vim's reg-ex matching is weird. For example:
> * is special when not escaped but…
> + is special when escaped
> \{x,y} (escaping only the opening bracket) works but…
> You have to use \( \) (escape both parens)
> [] is special when both are unescaped

Defines functions for each as autoload functions. I need to look into
weather it would be better to have this as a local function in a plugin.
The function for url encoding was taken from vim-unimpared:
https://github.com/tpope/vim-unimpaired
I don't need all the functionality it provides
The function for base64 encoding was taken from vim-base64:
https://github.com/christianrondeau/vim-base64
although I use it with mappings in the vim-unimpared style
[b and ]b base64 encode and decode respectively
[u url encodes characters that are normally encodede in a url
[U url encodes all characters
]u and ]U both urldecode all encodede characters
The shebang line is used to determine which should interpreter should be
used when executing the file
The mapping here adds the string `#!/usr/bin/env ` at the begining of
the line.
