Yes coming up with how to pass extension to =3D( ) is a TODO. Maybe it
indeed isn't worth implementing, but IMO it's almost always the case
when using =3D( ) causes an inevitable drawback of feeding the program
with random file name which is somewhat a random data at the start.
Extensions are vital part of file names, what program doesn't use
them? In my script I use $EDITOR, not exactly vim so I will be
implementing a switch statement and supporting whatever editor there
is and is worth it =E2=80=93 except NOT, will not do this, because it also
complicates the command that I'm pasting into BUFFER.
