Inserting stuff from normal mode ends up before the cursor, which is not what I want if I just typed text ending with a space character, I want it after. I've been using this for a bunch of insert functions:

(defmacro my/insert-after-space (&rest fs)
  `(progn
     ,@(mapcar
        (lambda (f)
          ;; If in evil normal mode and cursor is on a whitespace
          ;; character, then go into append mode first before inserting
          ;; the link. This is to put the link after the space rather
          ;; than before.
          `(defadvice ,f (around append-if-in-evil-normal-mode activate compile)
             (let ((is-in-evil-normal-mode (and (bound-and-true-p evil-mode)
                                                (not (bound-and-true-p
                                                      evil-insert-state-minor-mode))
                                                (looking-at "[[:blank:]]"))))
               (if (not is-in-evil-normal-mode)
                   ad-do-it
                 (evil-append 0)
                 ad-do-it
                 (evil-normal-state)))))
        fs)))

that's so cool, thanks!

I think I'm gonna need new hardware if I want to play with this..
