tmux-tilish VS tmux-modal

tmux-tilit was inspired by tmux-tilish. I wanted to add some new commadns, make the keybindings match better with tmux's defaults, hence tilit was born!

I use jabirali/tmux-tilish to move between buffers and tmux tanes with the same set of keybindings.

Maybe someone find it useful too. For me this is the best tmux plugin: https://github.com/jabirali/tmux-tilish It's even have vim integration so I can switch between tmux and vim panels/windows whit the same keybinding (alt+H,J,K,L)

I've found also this tmux plugin : GitHub - jabirali/tmux-tilish: Plugin which makes tmux work and feel like i3wm

People might be interested in the plugin tmux-modal (https://www.reddit.com/r/tmux/comments/spyiv1/new_plugin_tmuxmodal_execute_complex_tmux/). With this you get a modal mode in tmux and can execute complex tmux commands in just a few keystrokes (see the README for more information)

Like the other user, the best I've gotten is nesting w/ alternate prefixes. Though looking at a plugin like tmux-modal, it's possible to set a keybinding that unbinds your prefix key-table, sets some sort of visual notification/status, then rebinds your prefix key-table when that key is pressed again (in essence insert mode for tmux).

tmux has a very powerful binding command, where one can "chain" several "groups", called key tables in tmux. tmux-modal defines a bunch of key tables and "chain" them. If you know bash, the main file should be quite easy to read (you probably need some knowledge of tmux commands as well I guess).

Hm, I'm guessing many would want this. Great suggestion! Would you mind creating an issue with this feature request? Thank you!

If you are interested in bindings that are designed to be efficient, easy to remember and comfortable, take a look at tmux-modal. It's a plugin that introduces a modal mode (e.g. like in Vim text editor) that enables execution of complex tmux commands with just a few keystrokes!
