I just discovered the M-hjkl bindings from guns/vim-sexp how did I live without this in my life 😮

dominicm10:10:13

they're awesome.

dominicm10:10:21

a bit uncomfortable on conventional keyboards though

dominicm14:10:33

It's a shame tpope doesn't get much time to work on fireplace. My pprint PR has a huge impact on how I view things. Data is perceivable now, it's really nice.

fatihict14:10:29

Does tpope even work with Clojure or was it just a hobby?

dominicm15:10:48

That's a good question, I'm not sure.

fatihict15:10:17

It's unfortunate that the output of cpp isn't syntax highlighting

fatihict15:10:50

*highlighted

fatihict15:10:08

It is with :Last, but that's an extra step

fatihict15:10:25

How do you do that dominicm?

dominicm15:10:40

It would be impossible to syntax highlight cpp given how vim works. Well... maybe not

dominicm15:10:55

I think ascii codes get printed in there, so maybe you could pipe via an external program

dominicm15:10:57

Not sure though

dominicm15:10:40

I'm lying, doesn't support ascii, so nope, no ideas

fatihict15:10:04

I wonder if the awesome folks working at neovim are working on something that will support this in the future

dominicm15:10:27

yeah, I hope so, but I don't think they've touched the message code much yet.

dominicm15:10:38

ah, I think old vim supported colours, and neovim does not.

dominicm15:10:59

because, use :term & it didn't work in guivim for example (it working was a cheat)

dominicm15:10:03

oh neat, it'll even allow you to expose a viml ast to plugins in the future

dominicm15:10:08

that's ripe for (ab)use

dominicm15:10:38

wait, if I'm reading that issue right, they did 15 hours of generative tests to test this code.

dominicm15:10:56

This will be a noticable feature in neovim I think. It will be cool to have command line highlighting (which probably paves the way for what we discussed previously)

fatihict15:10:35

Being able to use that buffer as any other would be sweet. Most of the time I am trying to search with forward slash just to find out it doesn't work before I type :Last 😛

dominicm15:10:36

I think the answer to that is to use a real buffer though 😛

dominicm15:10:30

http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Capture_ex_command_output combination of TabMessage & cp augmented to handle it

fatihict15:10:42

Nice, thanks for the link
