YankCode (vim)

Yank code to the clipboard. Code is automatically unindented. A header is added in the form of a comment that includes the file name and lines copied. Adding the header relies on commentstring being set correctly. If commentstring is set to an empty string (e.g. JSON), no header will be added.

Instead of yanking:

    def valid?(*)
      if instance_variable_defined?(:@_interaction_valid)
        return @_interaction_valid
      end

      super
    end

You'll get:

#  lib/active_interaction/concerns/runnable.rb (lines 48-54)
def valid?(*)
  if instance_variable_defined?(:@_interaction_valid)
    return @_interaction_valid
  end

  super
end

Now you're ready to paste it into Slack or wherever you need!
