I use tmux splits (panes). Inside one of these panes there's a Vim process, and it has its own splits (windows).
In Vim I have key bindings C-h/j/k/l set to switch windows in the given direction. (Vim default mappings for windows switching are the same, but prefixed with C-W.) I'd like to use the same keystrokes for switching tmux panes.
An extra goal that I've solved with a dirty hack is to toggle between last active panes with C-\.
Here's how it should work:
| [user] | |
| name = Steven Lu | |
| email = stevenlu443@gmail.com | |
| [core] | |
| editor = vim | |
| whitespace = cr-at-eol | |
| excludesfile = /Users/lust/.gitignore | |
| [color] | |
| ui = true | |
| [alias] |
| { | |
| "color_scheme": "Packages/Color Scheme - Default/Tomorrow Night Eighties.tmTheme", | |
| "highlight_line": true, | |
| "overlay_scroll_bars": "enabled", | |
| "show_tab_close_buttons": false, | |
| "theme": "Soda Dark.sublime-theme", | |
| "default_line_ending": "unix", | |
| "word_wrap": true, | |
| "trim_trailing_white_space_on_save": true, | |
| "scroll_past_end": true |
| [ | |
| // map ctrl+l to go to line | |
| { "keys": ["ctrl+l"], "command": "show_overlay", "args": {"overlay": "goto", "text": ":"} }, | |
| // and ctrl+g does what F3 does | |
| { "keys": ["ctrl+g"], "command": "find_next" }, | |
| { "keys": ["ctrl+shift+g"], "command": "find_prev" }, | |
| // overrides F-key functionality (only really used on Windows as OSX overloads f-keys with useful functionality) | |
| { "keys": ["f1"], "command": "new_file"}, | |
| { "keys": ["f2"], "command": "next_view_in_stack"}, |
| # Report that we can handle 256 colors | |
| # set -g default-terminal "xterm-256color" | |
| # Rebind prefix to avoid conflicts | |
| unbind C-b | |
| set -g prefix C-a | |
| # this is for convenience | |
| bind C-d detach-client |
Independent tweaks for zsh (put in .zshrc) follow:
# for oh my zsh plugins that are nice
plugins=(git cp osx zsh-syntax-highlighting)
# no idea why oh my zsh does not take the existing path. hardcoding this is *bad*
