Yes, which is why I've written some acme emulation for vim twice. (Incidentally, I was working on that yesterday before this link was posted: https://github.com/fmoralesc/plan9-for-vimspace I have to improve the button 2 functionality, and chords are still not supported, but I'm on it. A plumbing system is planned, although I'm not sure if its best to reuse plan9port's plumber or reimplement it.)

Exactly. Which is why, even though I am a serious vim junkie, I love acme so much.

nice work. it would also be cool to use acme window management heuristics for splits, maybe even for tmux.

I'll improve them, at least for the supported actions. The problem I have is vim doesn't keep track of the windows layout, afaict.
