Using existing pane as a runner #21

Closed raine closed 9 years ago

raine commented 10 years ago

Is this possible currently?

Vimux works so that if you have a pane already open and use commands in vim it's going to default to using a pane you have adjacent to the vim pane. Would be great.

Hello @raine,

There is an undocumented (sorry!) command to attach to an existing command: :VtrAttachToPane. This command will cause the tmux pane numbers to be displayed (via tmux's display-pane function), then Vim will prompt for the pane number to attach to.

I have plans to make this functionality a bit smarter and obviously to document it, but for now, hopefully that helps.

Thanks. Works great.

Glad to hear this worked out for you. Still planning to smarten up the pane detection stuff in the future, but I have other issues for that and so I am going to close this assuming your are getting along with the :VtrAttachToPane command. Please reopen or comment if I missed anything, and thanks for the comments!
