"using a terminal-based text editor
For many years I’d mostly been using a GUI version of vim/neovim, so switching to actually using an editor in the terminal was a bit of an adjustment."
For a long time my pain with this was that I often want to open an ephemeral editor while not losing context and sight of my terminal.
With a GUI editor you always get a fresh window, but in the terminal this is difficult.
Luckily
zellij edit
from my `/etc/tmux.d/keyboard-shortcuts-comfort.conf`:
This binds `j` to prompt for files to open (* or just hitting enter works) and launches vim in a new window in tmux (turning off flow control and setting filename as title). Probably one of my most-used shortcuts.I use Helix and Zellij and it has been amazing, requiring very minimal configuration and maintenance.
