CLI/UI Navigation (vim / tmux / i3)
Vim, tmux and i3 all have similar concepts. You can have multiple things on screen, each can be maximized, and you can also have collections of those things offscreen. This is an over simplification. We're not going to get into things like vim buffers, tmux sessions, and i3 containers. Let's keep it simple.
Nomenclature | ||
---|---|---|
Tool | Things on screen | Off screen |
vim | windows | tabs |
tmux | panes | windows |
i3 | windows | workspaces |
If I'm in i3, I'm usually local to the machine and don't start tmux sessions. So for me it's either ssh+tmux+vim+entr, or i3+vim+entr.
These are the everyday things I have to do in each:
