Allow for vsplit to start halfway down the screen #342

Closed vegabook closed 2 years ago

This is a feature request, if it does not already exist. If it does exist, could you explain how to invoke this functionality.

Right now in my nvimrc I have this macro:

autocmd FileType python nnoremap <silent> <F8> :T ipython --nosep -i % \|\| echo -e "\e[41mFailed...\e[0m" && exit<CR>

which is bound to F8 and runs the python script in the buffer in a split window below the code. The problem is the split happens right at the top of the nvim code buffer, like this:

So I have to use the mouse to drag it to down to the middle of the screen, so that I can at the same time see my code, like this:

Is there any command to make this happen without having to do it manually? If not, could I ask for such a parameter to the :T command to be added to the code?

You can use <mods> to manipulate how neoterm window will be created. For instance you could use: :vert T ls to open a vertical neoterm window that'll run a ls command.

Check :h <mods> for more information.

yeah okay vert T ls kinda gets me somewhere by using the left of the screen, but is there a horizontal equivalent of :vert modifier? I cannot see one in the help.

@vegabook, check vim's docs for botright and belowright.
