column regex split: how to set expansion by default

[aborruso]

Hi,
in the previous version of visidata, when I was clicking on : to split a column by regex, I had in output the splitted columns.
In this version I must click on ( to split the output array.

Is there a way to have the automatic split by default? And if so, is there a reason why you would advise against it?

Thank you

You can bind : to the split-col command, which still exists. There's no reason I would advise against it; we made the change because it seems more internally consistent. If it seems like everyone prefers the old way we can certainly change the binding back at any point. (All scripts will continue to work as they use the longnames.)

Thank you very much, Now I have to remember how to do it, but don't tell me, I study.

I prefer it, but I'm not everyone 🤣

As usual, thank you very much Saul
