How to source a part of a file














4















I can source a file, e.g. my vimrc with :so % or :so <filename>. But what do I do when I need to source only part of a file. I want some way to visually select a portion of the file with :h v and then source it. Kinda like emacs's M-x eval-region

  • So, you're saying I should just copy and paste it in my command-line window? That's... easier than I thought.
