Terminal, Byobu and Vim: A Match Made in Heaven

by Marco Bravo

Programming image

None of shortcut keys overlap. That’s by default.

So you are able to manage multiple servers with a single connection per server, each connection having multiple shells through byobu (tmux), with each shell in turn capable of editing multiple files via Vim. And you switch between all these views from the keyboard only.

Most of the time what I like is to split the current view, in the left panel to edit sources, and in the right panel use some sort of watcher.

And that’s not really possible without Terminal, Byobu, and Vim.
