Hi,
I am using vim 8.2 under Ubuntu and I have added vim-latex and vim-matchup plugins.
Everything looks working fine---di" can delete texts inside double-quote---but dab, daB, dib, diB, di{, etc. cannot do anything.
Are there any issues? Have I missed anything here? Any pointers would be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Sven Guckes

general note: vim-8.2 has evolved a bit..
it is currently up to patch 2705.
i don't know whether your problem will be fixed by
upgrading, but it might help avoid other problems. :)

maybe you can illustrate by giving an example?
if you meant "sequence of non-empty lines"
then you might be looking for these commands:
dap and dip
see also:
:help ap
:help ip
:h text-objects
ps: i know that "---" is inserted into
the text without any surrounding spaces
but this upsets many reading conventions
and breaks some highlighting/coloring.
so i mmoved your example onto a line
of its own. somehow easier to read. :)

"block" as in "code block between pairs of {}"?

The b and B in dab and daB are equal to ( and {, respectively.
