description

This plugin allows you to send a range of lines from a buffer to another screen window. This could be used for all sorts of things but my motivation was to be able to edit SQL statements in a file and then send them to a open mysql client session in another window. You could also send ruby code to a running erb or bash commands to a bash prompt, etc. You could even use this as a quick way to paste between 2 vim sessions running in different windows (or even different screen sessions). The plugin creates some mapping by default. In normal mode || sends the current line to another screen window. In visual modes use |. If you have a mapleader set you'll need to type that first for both mapings. See :help mapleader for more info on that. You can create you own mappings to override these. For the normal mode do this: nmap <whatever> <Plug>ScreenPipeSend For visual modes do this: vmap <whatever> <Plug>ScreenPipeOpSend Just replace <whatever> with what you want to map of course. Finally, this plugin also provides a :ScreenPipe command to do the same thing. The code is available on git here: https://github.com/bundacia/ScreenPipe KNOWN BUGS: 1. The window list doesn't show up on the mac (but choosing the right number still works) TODO: 1. Implement an operator.
