A plugin for vim that lets you easily map commands to <cr>.
Seems trivial. It is.
<cr> is kind of useless in Normal mode so I usually map it to do some command. Typically it's running a specific test but sometimes it's reloading Chrome. While writing this README it was w !markdown.pl. It could be anything.
:Rerun !rspec spec saves the command !rspec spec away. Press <cr> to run it.
Obviously you could tie it to something fancier like Dispatch.vim or the like.
:Rerun Dispatch
The idea is to make it easy to make it do whatever you're doing the most right now.
I have project specific .vimrcs in most of my projects looking more or less like this:
" silently run AppleScript that updates chrome
noremap <leader>rc :silent Rerun call system('reload-chrome')<cr>
" mark the current file
noremap <leader>rf :silent Rerun !rspec <c-r>=expand('%')<cr><cr>
" mark the current file and line
noremap <leader>rl :silent Rerun !rspec <c-r>=expand('%').':'.line('.')<cr><cr>It's really up to you.
