 +===== 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:
 +
 +^  New Vim Window / tmux Pane / i3 Window  ^^^
 +^ Context ^ Key ^ Action ^
 +| vim  | C-w,n    | New empty window |
 +| vim  | C-w,s    | Duplicate window below |
 +| vim  | C-w,v    | Duplicate window on side |
 +| tmux | Prefix,s | New pane below |
 +| tmux | Prefix,v | New pane on side |
 +| i3   | Mod+d or Enter or g | Every app launches into a new window (find [[https://git.dlma.com/dotfiles.git/raw/HEAD/.config/i3/config|mod+g]]) |
 +
 +^  Close Window / Pane / Window  ^^^
 +^ Context ^ Key ^ Action ^
 +| vim  | C-w,q | Quit this window |
 +| vim  | C-w,o | Close other windows, leaving only this one. |
 +| tmux | exit or C-d | Terminate the shell to close pane |
 +| i3   | | Close the app its normal way |
 +
 +^  Resize Window / Pane / Window  ^^^

 +| vim  | C-w,= | Make windows equal size |

 +| tmux | Prefix,z | toggle maximize |
 +| i3 | Mod+f | maximize window |
 +
 +^  Navigate Window, Buffer / Pane / Window  ^^^

 +| vim  | C-w,hjkl | Select that window |
 +| vim  | tab | Next buffer (in this window) (find [[https://git.dlma.com/dotfiles.git/raw/HEAD/.vimrc|<Tab>]]) |
 +| tmux | Prefix,hjkl | Select that pane |
 +| tmux | Prefix,tab | Next/prev pane, maximized (find [[https://git.dlma.com/dotfiles.git/raw/HEAD/.tmux.conf|Tab]]) |
