Adds additional pane-splitting commands to your favorite editor, provided your favorite editor is Atom.

Pain Split

Atom's pane:split-* commands suck if you want to do anything else but re-open the current document in your shiny new pane. Pain Split is here to help.

Default key bindings go something like this. Sorry for polluting the pane:* namespace.

'.platform-darwin':
  # Open an empty pane and bring it to focus to do as you will.
  # If there had to be only one way to split panes, this should have
  # been it.
  'cmd-k left':  'pane:split-left-creating-empty-pane'
  'cmd-k right': 'pane:split-right-creating-empty-pane'
  'cmd-k up':    'pane:split-up-creating-empty-pane'
  'cmd-k down':  'pane:split-down-creating-empty-pane'
  
  # Open a new pane and move the current editor tab to it.
  'cmd-k m left':  'pane:split-left-moving-current-tab'
  'cmd-k m right': 'pane:split-right-moving-current-tab'
  'cmd-k m up':    'pane:split-up-moving-current-tab'
  'cmd-k m down':  'pane:split-down-moving-current-tab'
  
  # Atom's default behavior. "D" for duplicate the current tab.
  # It's still there if you want it, I guess.
  'cmd-k d left':  'pane:split-left'
  'cmd-k d right': 'pane:split-right'
  'cmd-k d up':    'pane:split-up'
