[mini.pick] paste with command + v

[jellli]

I can't get used to use register, I prefer to use command + v, so I overwrite the behavior of mini pick with the following snippet:

  local paste_orig = vim.paste
  local mini_pick = require("mini.pick")
  mini_pick.setup({})
  ---@diagnostic disable-next-line: duplicate-set-field
  vim.paste = function(...)
    if not mini_pick.is_picker_active() then
      return paste_orig(...)
    else
      local reg_contents = vim.fn.getreg("+"):gsub("[\n\t]", " ")
      local char_table = {}
      local len = vim.fn.strchars(reg_contents)

      for i = 0, len - 1 do
        table.insert(char_table, vim.fn.strcharpart(reg_contents, i, 1))
      end
      mini_pick.set_picker_query(char_table)
    end
  end

Cool, I do it this way:

MiniPick.setup({
    mappings = {
        sys_paste = {
            char = "<C-v>",
            func = function()
                vim.api.nvim_feedkeys(vim.api.nvim_replace_termcodes("<C-r>+", true, true, true), "n", true)
            end,
        },
    },
})

Great work! This is way more neater than mine!

Thanks for sharing!

I believe there is a loose vim.fn.strchars(reg_contents) call in the original code that does nothing.

But of course my suggestion would be to get comfortable with <C-r> to paste from register and + as system register. This will come in handy in various situations. For example, I find myself using "+gr with 'mini.operators' replace operator quite a lot.

oops, I forgot to delete it.

I will definitely seriously consider your suggestion, thank you for developing such a great plugin.

Non-streaming paste (which seems to mostly be the case for not large amount of pasted text) from the system clipboard is now supported in 'mini.pick' out of the box. The reasoning is described in 15aa6de.
