Split vertically really splitting horizontally and vice versa. #186

For some odd reason without having modified the default functions, when I call ace-window b the window splits vertically for me instead of horizontally. Calling to split vertically via the ace-window v actually ends up splitting horizontally. I am using the latest contents from melpa for ace-window.

Telling emacs to split via M-x split-window-right RET and M-x split-window-below RET splits the windows correctly.

Doing a M-x describe-var RET aw-dispatch-alist prints out:

((120 aw-delete-window "Delete Window")
 (109 aw-swap-window "Swap Windows")
 (77 aw-move-window "Move Window")
 (99 aw-copy-window "Copy Window")
 (106 aw-switch-buffer-in-window "Select Buffer")
 (110 aw-flip-window)
 (117 aw-switch-buffer-other-window "Switch Buffer Other Window")
 (101 aw-execute-command-other-window "Execute Command Other Window")
 (70 aw-split-window-fair "Split Fair Window")
 (118 aw-split-window-vert "Split Vert Window")
 (98 aw-split-window-horz "Split Horz Window")
 (111 delete-other-windows "Delete Other Windows")
 (84 aw-transpose-frame "Transpose Frame")
 (63 aw-show-dispatch-help))

Which looks correct..

"v" does what split-window-vertically does. It's just a matter of terminology of the built-in Emacs function. So I think we can close this.
