You can use the replaceBufferContent function that I pointed to. > [Attempts to read the buffer contents into a String] > We really need to make this stuff easier. I vote that we start by > adding some basic primitives like a getCurrentBuffer :: YiM String... It's not difficult if you know where to look. Reading Yi.Buffer.HighLevel would help you here. In general all the buffer-manipulation API are in the BufferM monad. You can lift it to YiM by using withBuffer. The function will then operate on the current buffer.
