+# vim-singlechar
+
+A simple Vim plugin that lets you insert single characters without leaving normal mode.
+
+## Overview
+
+`vim-singlechar` allows you to quickly insert characters while staying in normal mode.
+
+## Features
+
+- Insert characters at or after the cursor position
+- Support for counts to insert a character multiple times
+- Stay in normal mode for efficient editing
+- Minimal workflow interruption
+- Works with Vim 9+
+
+## Installation
+
+### Manual installation
+
+```bash
+cd /tmp
+git clone https://github.com/lohhiiccc/vim-singlechar.git
+mkdir -p ~/.vim/pack/plugins/start/
+cp -r vim-singlechar ~/.vim/pack/plugins/start/
+cd -
+```
+
+## Usage
+
+By default, the plugin provides two mappings:
+
+- `<Leader>i` - Insert a character at the cursor position
+- `<Leader>a` - Insert a character after the cursor position
+
+After pressing the mapping, you'll see a prompt asking for the character to insert. Press any character and it will be inserted without entering insert mode.
+
+### With count
+
+You can use a count before the mapping to insert the character multiple times:
+
+- `3<Leader>i,` will insert three commas at the cursor position
+- `5<Leader>a.` will insert five periods after the cursor position
+
+## Configuration
+
+You can customize the plugin by setting these variables in your vimrc:
+
+```vim
+" Change the mappings (before loading the plugin)
+let g:singlechar_map_insert_at = '<Leader>i'     " Default
+let g:singlechar_map_insert_after = '<Leader>a'  " Default
+
+" Change the prompt message
+let g:singlechar_prompt = 'Press the character to insert - Press Esc to cancel...'  " Default
+
+" Disable default mappings (if you want to create your own)
+let g:singlechar_no_mappings = 1
+```
+
+## Commands
+
+The plugin provides these commands:
+
+- `:InsertCharAt [count]` - Insert a character at the cursor position
+- `:InsertCharAfter [count]` - Insert a character after the cursor position
