neovim-remote VS neovide

Notice that this script depends on mhinz/neovim-remote: Support for --remote and friends. (github.com). (nvr as you have notice). The full-path is required to make it work.

I am currently using https://github.com/mhinz/neovim-remote with this bit in my zshrc:

Since they are on different screens I cannot use a single neovim instance (I tried playing around with neovim-remote but seems like that's for the usecase of opening files in one instance from different terminals -- doesn't help). Due to multiple LSP instances changes in one file are not reflected in the other, e.g., file B imports some types from file A; I create a new type in A but since B's neovim instance is not aware of any change to the A file corresponding the LSP fails to see the new type.

This version includes `nv` binary which is [neovim-remote](https://github.com/mhinz/neovim-remote) but rewritten in Rust (I've did it out of boredom) also with interface similar to `page`.

Practical use case: when navigating in ANY terminal (or tmux) write a function that sends opened files to a single running neovim instance instead of spreading opened vim instances all around like neovim remote does, but works for any terminal

I see the integration with neovim is done via a separate plugin, did you think about adding support for neovim-remote?

Another way of doing what u/TheLeoP23 suggested is by using https://github.com/mhinz/neovim-remote . This way you have a single neovim instance and you can open it on different terminals and mantain your current workflow.

Have you looked at Neovide? It's very similar to this, a cross-platform Rust based front end for neovim. Neovide is really quite nice it's beautifully rendered.

My primary use case for Neovide (vs neovim running in Wezterm/kitty/Alacritty) is simply so I can Alt/Cmd-TAB to it quickly as I usually run with many terminal windows open and it's somewhat of a chore to locate the one with nvim in it, whereas with Neovide I have a separate app with an icon in the dock/sysmenu to switch to.

- have a “graphical” user interface: https://github.com/neovide/neovide

The process above works fine, though, depending on your setup and project, you might appreciate the benefits of a lean editor like Neovide. So, let’s see how to configure Neovim to run with Unreal Engine.

EDIT: I found this just now -> https://github.com/neovide/neovide/issues/1902 and disabling relative line numbers does indeed make the problem more or less disappear.

Not Emacs, but perhaps https://github.com/neovide/neovide will be of interest to you.

im certainly not a programmer , but NVIM with SOME gui like neovide it looks amazing and great,

Yes it is neovide: https://github.com/neovide/neovide

iTerm2, since Terminal.app doesn't support 24-bit colors and I used Neovim for some time. I now use Neovide for Neovim, so all I use iTerm2 for now is the UI (I have a theme I like, plus dark mode actually works).
