Movement to `] is exclusive

I am using (g)Vim 9.0 and the GrepOperator function of chapter 34, first script doesn't work properly with a yank movement (line 10 of the script): This movement to `] is exclusive in my Vim application. Thus, it doesn't contain the last character of the target of the movement.

Toggling exclusive movement to inclusive

I don't know whether there is an option to switch it permanently to an inclusive movement, but I fixed the issue with inserting a v after the yank:

" My fix in line 10 of GrepOperator function:
normal! `[yv`]

The v toggles a normally exclusive movement to an inclusive one (see: :help o_v in Vim).

Thanks!

And by the way: Thank you for publishing that tutorial! After 30 years of using Vim occasionally with only knowing a few commands, I will now become a professional (hopefully). It is incredible how long it lasts sometimes to learn something important fundamentally.
