    and https://github.com/kutsan/dotfiles/tree/master/.config/nvim this one is mine. Although, it's not 100% written in lua but I'm trying to convert it slowly. Suggestions are welcome.
  • can i attach vim running in background to tmux ??

    In your shell configs, you can check whether or not current shell is summoned inside vim/neovim process via $VIM_TERMINAL or $NVIM_LISTEN_ADDRESS environment variables and then, it's easy to launch tmux without or with a different session name (in order to prevent recursion, if you're using tmux as your top-level process). Check out this example for zsh and neovim. Use $VIM_TERMINAL instead of $NVIM_LISTEN_ADDRESS to support vim.
  • Is the terminal emulator `:term` something you use regularly?
    10 projects | /r/neovim | 20 Jan 2021
    Hmm, I haven't encounter a problem about this because I have a autocmd that sets current working directory to project root. So, wherever I open buffer, my shell always points to the project root. See its function and how it is used.
