9 Very similar to the Windows explorer integration. Would be even better with "diff with vim" if multiple files are selected, like on Windows shell integration.
Thanks for your suggestion, just added it!
I just tried it and it works great! Thank you for the (quick) implementation!
You are welcome :-)
