nevermind I just used a tempfile instead.

declare-option str fzf_output "" 
declare-option str fzf_open_type "" 
declare-option str fzf_temp_file "" 
define-command -docstring %|Lets you select a file with fzf then open it in a new split, window, or current buffer| \

	evaluate-commands %sh[
    		temp_file="$(mktemp /tmp/kak-fzf-win.XXX)"

--bind "alt-c:execute-silent(printf 'set-option global fzf_open_type \"new_window\"' > $temp_file)+accept,\
enter:execute-silent(printf 'set-option global fzf_open_type \"current_window\"' > $temp_file)+accept,\
alt-b:execute-silent(printf 'set-option global fzf_open_type \"horizontal_split\"' > $temp_file)+accept,\
alt-v:execute-silent(printf 'set-option global fzf_open_type \"vertical_split\"' > $temp_file)+accept")"
		printf "set-option global fzf_output '$output'\n"
		printf "set-option global fzf_temp_file '$temp_file'\n"
		if [ -n "$(cat $temp_file)" ]; then
        		printf "$(cat $temp_file)\n"
		fi
        	rm "$temp_file" > /dev/null
		printf "temp file: $temp_file\n" >&2
		sleep 0.1
		# change this so it uses a temp file to store this data.

        	evaluate-commands %sh{
