Why?

While I'm reading code and encounter the code which I can not understand how it works.
What I should do in such situation is try that code and see how it works.
This package improve your repetitive copy and paste workflow into one step.

  1. Select buffer
  2. Invoke try:paste command.
  3. Your selected code is pasted at bottom of try buffer.
  4. Start try&see by running script runner package like script.

Features

  • Paste selected text to bottom of try buffer by default.
  • Without selection, simply open try buffer.
