Thanks! This is pretty cool. I do often run shell commands on entire lines/ranges of lines in vim, but haven't tried it with just parts of lines. I just tried with vim's rectangular selection, and while it does correctly give the 'dc' output, it replaces entire lines with the output instead of just the selection. I'll have to look into this further.

Enjoy! Kakoune’s selection-verb editing model really clicked for me; I had been a heavy user of visual mode in vim before I switched. The great Unix integration composes really well with the selection model too.
