[Ranger-users] Ranger Tip: Open files in a split window with screen

[Jostein Berntsen]

Here is a tip if you want screen to open a text file in a vertical split 
window. Add this key definition to keys.py:

keymanager.map('browser', 'L', fm.open_console(cmode.OPEN, 'screen -X 
eval "split -v" "focus" "screen" "exec vim %d/%f\\n"'))


Then you can open a file with "L". You will need the git version of 
screen.
