Tmix + Nvim , what am i missing out on?

That was my workflow in tmux as well. I recently switched and created this kitten: https://github.com/taylorzr/kitty-meow. It does fuzzy "session" switching using fzf. But it also creates new sessions both for your local projects, and from github.

How to open a file from neotree in a chosen window?
1 project | /r/DoomEmacs | 12 Jul 2023

I see this option available in the documentation. See "open_with_window_picker" in https://github.com/nvim-neo-tree/neo-tree.nvim. But in spite of installing nvim-window-picker, pressing w only moves to the next word in the neotree window. It does not ask me to choose a window. How can I enable things so that I can choose a window I want to open the file in?
