Will append lines 7-42 of the current file to the end of existing other file
blah.txt.
Manually that works. I did find that help section. But I want to do it
automated. Is my answer in that help file? I will go back and read it
again. If I have file.txt and I run a mapping that yanks some lines
and start a new file and dumps the yanked text into that file and then
:w how will Vim know what to name that file? How do I tell Vim what to
name that file without doing it manually myself?
Well, how would you otherwise determine the filename? You didn't
mention in your original post that the filename came from your
source file, so the running assumption was that you had a fixed
catalog of filenames you wanted to produce.
Having sample data from your file, and the filenames (and how
they're determined) for that file would help produce a more accurate
solution to your problem.
