I don’t generally like to encourage any form of cargo culting – but there is a lot of great stuff in this kakrc. We can use this thread to pull out interesting stuff, if really interesting and stand alone put under Recipes.

map global normal = ':prompt math: %{exec "a%val{text}<lt>esc>|bc<lt>ret>"}<ret>'

Today I learned about %val{text}.

define-command find -params 1 -shell-candidates %{ ag -g '' --ignore "$kak_opt_ignored_files" } %{ edit %arg{1} }

…OK, that’s pretty great. I’ll steal that right now (but of course I’ll use ripgrep instead of ag).

I like this one from @mawww:

define-command delete-buffers-matching -params 1 %{
  evaluate-commands -buffer * %{
    evaluate-commands %sh{ case "$kak_buffile" in $1) echo delete-buffer ;; esac }
  }
}

single-process-pipe from @occivink is also interesting. With a few checks it could be quite robust.
