move to the end of selected Visual area

After SlimeRegionSending, the cursor stays at the start of the selected Visual area. Moving the cursor to the end side would be helpful. It will allow us to just continue to select and send lines that come after.

hi @tanloong

Thanks for pitching in!

Is it possible to do this in a mapping instead? Does it belong (as the default behavior) in the slime logic?

[tanloong]

Thanks for replying!

The reason that I didn't choose the mapping way is that I don't know how to, although there have already been a related #331.

I tried xmap <F5> <Plug>SlimeRegionSend|'> in nvim, but got E20: Mark not set.

If there is a mapping doing the same thing, I am happy to use it. Otherwise letting slime itself do it, in default, fits me, with, from your point of view, the cost of the slime logic. In that regard, I will use my fork if the change is not for vim-slime.

So, how can I map this behavior? Or how should I modify the above mapping?

Excuse me if the language looks strange. I am not a native speaker.

Hi @tanloong

Although it's not exactly the same, I've used this binding to navigate after sending a paragraph.

Also, I just tried:

# mnemonic: end
vmap ,e <c-c><c-c>`>

which seems to work (if I understand what you were trying to do)

Let me know if that helps 😄

[tanloong]

It works! I use this:

vim.keymap.set('x', '<F5>', '<c-c><c-c>`>', {remap=true}) -- written in lua

vimscript equivalent:

xmap <F5> <c-c><c-c>`>

Thanks!

Happy to hear that ^
