nvim-cokeline VS barbar.nvim

I'm trying to use it to render it in a cokeline component, I want to hide only the very first letter when I'm picking a buffer, so I can show the pick_letter instead. Everytime the filename starts with one of those special multibyte characters (pretty much never), the buffername gets a weird character.

Cokeline (bufferbar) to see which buffers are loaded and close the ones i don't need

I've looked at Heirline a few times but I just can't get past not really understanding why I would use this over other tablines. There are a metric shitload of possibilities but I am a simple man. The lack of images on the repo makes it difficult for me as a perspective user, to look at the repo and decide if I want to use this or not. Given that Heirline is focused around a UI piece of neovim, whats your thoughts on getting a sort of "Gallery" put together to show what can be done with Heirline? Something akin to how cokeline.nvim or barbar.nvim handles this?

They is me :) I use cokeline

New merge to master that now provides support for is_first and is_last components

May I interest you in some?

Hi everyone! I recently switched nvim-cokeline to semantic versioning and v0.1.0 has been released a few days ago. The plugin has had a ton of improvements since my last post, just to name a few:

My main goal at this stage is to get as many people as possible to check out the project and give feedback for further development. If you're currently using some plugin that offers similar functionality, consider checking cokeline.nvim out!

Check it out at noib3/cokeline.nvim!

Check it out on noib3/cokeline.nvim and let me know if you like it! Feedback is greatly appreciated :)

considering your vscode background when you say tabs your really mean buffers( Trust me even i had this problem when I made the switch). So your solution here is using a plugin. There are many but I personally use barbar.nvim

Nice! I personally use barbar.nvim's : BufferCloseAllButVisible which closes all buffers that aren't currently visible in a window.

There has been discussion of adding that feature to upstream barbar.nvim, but no concrete work has begun yet.

I'm using barbar.nvim, a simple but efficient bufferline plugin.

LuaLS has trouble identifying vim functions. I just went through and annotated a bunch of functions with doc comments in a project to help it figure things out.

I use barbar.nvim for displaying buffers as tabs and whenever I feel like I have too many open I run :BufferCloseAllButVisible (from a mapping), and it closes every buffer except those I have currently visible

i use barbar
