Referring to the existing leftabove and rightbelow commands, which do the following:
- execute a command
- if the command results in a split, it will be either opened on the left, or above the current window for
leftabove
(and analogously forrightbelow
).
Question is: why don't the counterparts rightabove
and leftbelow
exist?
Wouldn't it be logical that I want my new split either on the right, or above? (Or either on the left or below?)
Addendum: I understand the wording of my question ("I want my new split either on the right, or above") might have been misleading. Let me try to make the question more clear.
leftabove
means: if you encounter a vsplit
then the new window should be on the left; if you encounter a split
, then the new window should be above.
rightbelow
means: if you encounter a vsplit
then the new window should be on the right; if you encounter a split
, then the new window should be below.
So what I'm asking is, why don't we have these two?
leftbelow
means: if you encounter a vsplit
then the new window should be on the left; if you encounter a split
, then the new window should be below.
rightabove
means: if you encounter a vsplit
then the new window should be on the right; if you encounter a split
, then the new window should be above.
