    show_line_numbers = false,
    -- Show the register names in the menu
    show_register_names = true,
  },
}

Only load plugin when keymap is pressed

-- lazy
{
  "whoop-t/dupe.nvim",
  keys = {
    { "<leader>p", ":DupeShowAll<CR>", mode = {"n", "v"}, desc = "Dupe Show Menu" },
  },
}

Commands

-- Show all registers and their contents
-- On selection, paste the contents
:DupeShowAll

How it works

You can open the menu and select a register to paste from in normal mode and it will paste like using the "p"

It also works with visual selection modes and will paste over whatever is visually selected

Note: visual mode paste acts as black hole delete, it will not save the text that is deleted in a register

TODO

• 1. Allow for range pasting(delete range and then paste from selected register)
• 2. Expose command or autocommand to allow user to select register to yank too(delete? change?)
• 3. Expose option to auto back up of all deletes/yanks to a-z registers
  • line deletes are auto saved in 1-9 registers
  • line yanks, small yanks and small deletes are only stored in the unnamed/0 buffer by default
    • small = word sized yanks/deletes(yw, yiw, etc)
