Add Keymap: Close paste window AND paste window in split

[freeo]

Use Case:
Whoops, I selected to little text, I need to go back and reselect (starting from gv), so I need to close the paste window popup.
Wait, I can't close the paste window? Hmm... Every possible window command from within the paste window leads to nvim being closed? Hm...

Would be nice to be able to close it, otherwise now I need to close and reopen the whole thing again, including cursor position etc.

Idea:
In fact, having the option to treat the paste window as a separate split buffer would be awesome - seamless navigation: yanking pastes directly to the split below. Additional yanks APPEND to the existing paste window! Nice for yanking multiple parts from a long output. Clipboard managers like CopyQ would solve this is well, but more vim is always better, right?

Nice plugin btw! Love that I can have multiple scrollback buffers open at the same time - this was a limitation to me previously. How does this work considering all of them use the same socket?!

Hi @freeo,

Thanks for the info.

There is a feature request #255 to open the paste window as a split window instead of floating window.

Every possible window command from within the paste window leads to nvim being closed?

That should not be the case. You should be able to close with the key q in normal mode. Here is a demo where I select some text, the paste window opens, then I hit esc q to close the paste window. Then gv to select the text and continue modifying.

Weird. q in normal mode closes the scrollback buffer, no matter if in the paste window or just after opening the scrollback. Will have to deep dive, no time for that, yet.

Found the culprit in my config, I'm using this plugin:
https://github.com/tmillr/sos.nvim

My workaround is to not load sos.nvim when in a kitty-scrollback window like this:

  {
    "tmillr/sos.nvim",
    cond = function()
  return not (vim.bo.filetype ~= "kitty-scrollback")
    end,
    config = function()
      require("sos").setup({
        autowrite = true,
        save_on_cmd = "all",
        ---Save current buffer on `BufLeave`. See `:help BufLeave`.
        save_on_bufleave = true,
        ---Save all buffers when Neovim loses focus or is suspended.
        save_on_focuslost = true,
      })
    end,
  },

It would be nice if kitty-scrollback and sos.nvim would work together by default.

Do you think I should open a ticket at tmillr/sos.nvim?
