Allow for Customization of prompt string #49

Closed jtmkrueger closed 12 years ago

jtmkrueger commented 12 years ago

I thought it would be nice to be able to customize the default prompt string, so I added the functionality. I put a section in the documentation as well so other users can figure it out.

Just curious, why do you find a feature like this useful? I'm not against pulling this in I just want to make sure this addition is validated.

jtmkrueger commented 12 years ago

People (like me) could have different .vimrc's on different machines and having a visual queue in the vim command line would be useful. I also personally didn't want to have to see "Command?" every time I sent something to vimux, and thought others might feel the same as me.

If I have to see it all day every day (and I do, I LOVE this plugin, thanks! :+1:) I'd like to be able to set what I see.

I think aesthetics are useful.

benmills commented 12 years ago

Totally agree. It might make sense to set the default prompt to something else. What do you think?

jtmkrueger commented 12 years ago

I set mine to

VIMUX->

Maybe something generic like -> or ~$

Your call!
