Hi, I was looking for your sendcodetoR.ahk autohotkey script

Thanks.

Here's what I have right now, it also maps right alt to send code to R.
You should change the ahk_class to your editor of choice (here it's
vim). To get the ahk_class, you need to run the atoit_spy (comes with
every autohotkey install).
