emacs-howdoyou VS centaur-tabs

However I found org-mode is great for content presentation. For the web we have html, for emacs we have org-mode. Org-mode is great for reading and fast for navigation. Creating org-mode based solutions feels just like creating a web app. I can also embed elisp commands to org-mode to handle click/enter events or whatever. And since it is just org-mode I can save the buffer to a normal org file or I can invoke reddigg links/commands from any org buffer too. Beside reddigg I have a similar one for stackoverflow (https://github.com/thanhvg/emacs-howdoyou) and one for hackernews (https://github.com/thanhvg/emacs-hnreader) that I'm using everyday. These packages all use org-mode as the view layer.

I just took a look at centaur-tabs source code, it is not very difficult to write that functionality yourself. I have never used centaur-tabs, so no idea what tabsets and groups and whatnot they use really are, but look at this function:

I have the same problem on multiple platforms with centaur tabs and found this igithub ssue with a workaround: https://github.com/ema2159/centaur-tabs/issues/181

Out of curiosity, did you try centaur-tabs before making your own mode? It might have gotten you reasonably close to what you were after. Though I know from personal experience, that “close” might as well be light years sometimes… lol

centaur-tabs

Centaur tabs can signal unsaved buffers and the buffer's major mode (as an icon). You can hide the modeline completely if that's all you need.

Haven't tried this, but might be worth looking at Centaur-tabs https://github.com/ema2159/centaur-tabs

Honestly there's not much thinking behind my tabs usage. I use centaur tabs which groups relevant tabs together in a way I quite like.

Have you tried centaur-tabs? Seems like that would get you to full parity.
