OneCommand.nvim

Running quick repeatable commands with parsable output

OneCommand.nvim came about from my need to be able to run commands quickly and repeatadly, such as running tests or SCP-ing files to a server after updating.

There are currently 2 ways that I know of doing this:

• Use :!<command> - The output of this is not easy to handle and work with.
• <CTRL-z> to exit, and fg to return - Can be a bit cumbersome and pollutes command history.

Features

• Prompts for command, runs it and displays the stdout in a popup window
• Saves previous commands to history so they can be searched and run again
• Saves the output of last command so it can be brought back up for reference

Demo

Note: On the date command in the video I am manually pressing the refresh button.
