split_v splits horizontally?

I have split_v 80 and a horizontal split. 😕

Depends, some would call that a vertical split, as the new window is placed vertically in relation to the original window.

Either way, split_v and split_h helpers map to Tmux's split-window command. And as you'd assume, split_v calls split-window -v and split_h calls split-window -h. So the V vs H argument is out of my hands :)

Oohhh, ok, cheers.
