tmuxp VS mprocs

Using tmux + tmuxp[1] you can load a pre-configured session and execute arbitrary shell commands for the session, window and pane. I use this to set up shells and editors in the correct dirs (and/or hosts), load lang environments, set env vars and source some zsh aliases and functions that I only want per project. The end result is that I can set up my dev environment (shells with different environments, neovim windows, test runner, various linters I don't wannt integrate into nvim) with a single "tmuxp load ".

As for apps: - I also use Zathura for PDFs, which is fine for me because it also has vim bindings, and I like the recolor feature. - I mostly use Alacritty + tmux for terminals, because I also use tmuxp. Although I run some quick commands in vterm. - I'm pretty happy with Firefox + Tridactyl as my main browser (by the way, I think Tridactyl is more powerful than Vimium). - My passwords are also stored in pass, which I access with pass.el and my password-store-ivy. The latter replicates some rofi script I used earlier. - I'm fine with dired for files and archives, but I run dired-do-compress or just enter tar / zip / ... commands in dired-do-async-shell-command. I don't work with that many archives anyway. - Honestly, I very rarely have to search for something across my entire machine (or home directory), and in such cases, I just run find :-) But I often use counsel-rg and deadgrep to fuzzy search across a given project.

Looks very simple I think I can do something based on ThePrimeagen's script that works for me, someone else also commented to tmuxp. It's probably better to look for solutions without having to do everything within neovim. Thanks

https://tmuxp.git-pull.com/ does the same thing, but I think it's smoother to work with. It does support freezing current panes. yaml config

Everything is configured with tmuxp and I can set the whole thing up with a single command.

https://github.com/tmux-python/tmuxp provides essential startup utility and scriptability.

tmuxp v1.12.0, GitHub, Release notes, Docs

You might script something like that using tmux or your specific terminal app, or you might get along with mprocs.

mprocs?

I was originally looking to use something like mprocs to explicitly save commands I run often on a per-directory basis, but I like the idea of dbhistory simply tracking which commands I run. To combine the two ideas, you might add something like "pinning" to dbhistory, so I can pin commands to the top of the list, and perhaps those commands aren't removed (by default) when running -p Cleans up the database. Just an idea.

in that post I did not explain why I was asking. Basically, I was trying to write an "el cheapo" replacement for https://github.com/pvolok/mprocs -- a nifty little tool that lets you maintain a list of commands that you run frequently, and be able to start/stop them when you like, and if needed, zoom into their execution windows and interact with them.

UPDATE: mprocs is close to what I'm talking about.

I'm growing interested in TUI, but I don't know if this is a good example of how to do it. I see it's drawn using echo escape sequences, but other apps I've seen (e.g. https://github.com/pvolok/mprocs) use TUI toolkits. Does anyone want to share good resources on how to get started?

Strangely the repository https://github.com/pvolok/mprocs is not given.
