It has also a nice integration with expand-region for quick edit of the current selected text by pressing e.

Install

You can either install evil-iedit-state from MELPA:

M-x package-install evil-iedit-state

Or add it to your Cask file:

```elisp (source melpa)

Manually

Add evil-iedit-state.el to your load path. evil-iedit-state requires both iedit and evil to be installed.

State transitions

Key Binding	From	To
