# vim-sendtowindow

Vim operator to send text from one window to another.

Main use case is sending code to and from the REPL running inside `:terminal` buffer.

## Demo ##

1. Sending lines using motions

## Installation ##

With your favorite plugin manager. In my case it's vim-plug:

`Plug 'karoliskoncevicius/vim-sendtowindow'`

Or manually copy the contents of the **plugin** folder to your

**./vim/plugin/** directory.

## Features ##

* Can send text between any two adjacent vim windows.

* Text can be defined by visual selection, motions and text objects.

* Tries to position the cursor in a convenient place after each call.

* Dot repeatable.

## Maps ##

By default it uses the following maps:

* `l` sends to the right window

* `k` sends to the top window

* `j` sends to the bottom window

* `h` sends to the left window

In order to change the above key maps add the following to your *vimrc*:

    let g:sendtowindow_use_defaults=0

And then remap the commands as you see fit.

For example this would map all the commands to L, H, K and J respectively:

    nmap L SendRight

    xmap L SendRightV

    nmap H SendLeft

    xmap H SendLeftV

    nmap K SendUp

    xmap K SendUpV

    nmap J SendDown

    xmap J SendDownV
