English is not my first language, so feel free to correct me of any mistake.

Easy text exchange operator for Evil. This is the port of vim-exchange by Tom McDonald.

Default bindings

gx (evil-exchange)

On the first use, define (and highlight) the first {motion} to exchange. On the second use, define the second {motion} and perform the exchange.

gX (evil-exchange-cancel)

Clear any {motion} pending for exchange.

gx (and gX) can also be used from visual mode, which is sometimes easier than coming up with the right {motion}
If you're using the same motion again (e.g. exchanging two words using gxiw), you can use . (evil-repeat) the second time.
gxx works as you expect.

(require 'evil-exchange)
;; change default key bindings (if you want) HERE
;; (setq evil-exchange-key (kbd "zx"))
(evil-exchange-install)

You can change the default bindings by customizing evil-exchange-key and/or evil-exchange-cancel-key BEFORE evil-exchange-install is called.
