![]() ![]() ![]() The Edit Current Session panel lets you modify the appearance of a single session. You can customize these indicators in Preferences > Appearance. When the session ends, a ⃠ icon appears in the tab. An activity indicator means new out is being received. Tab labels have indicators that tell you their status. Some systems are configured to augment this with additional information such as the hostname you're logged in to or your current directory (this is done by sending a special code of ESC]0 string ^G). You can drag tabs from one window to another, and you can drag a tab from a window into a new window by dropping it outside any iTerm2 window's tab bar.īy default, the label of each tab is the name of the job that's running in that session. Note that you can drag and drop tabs to reorder them within a window. Tabs in iTerm2 behave like tabs in other programs, most notably web browsers like Safari, Firefox, and Google Chrome. If you want to open more that one session at a time, you have a few options: You can create a new window (Shell > New Window), you can create a new tab (Shell > New Tab), or you can split the current session into two panes (Shell > Split Horizontally, Shell > Split Vertically), each of which is a separate session. First, I changed the “ you first start iTerm2, a window opens showing a terminal session. I’ve never liked the way headings are styled in the Markdown bundle, so I made some local changes to get what I want. You’ve probably noticed that my headings aren’t styled the way your Markdown heading are, even if you, like me, are using the IDLE theme. I leave the Next Actions and Waiting For lines in the file even when they have no items because it emphasizes that they are empty. The projects are typically subdivided into two lists: Next Actions and Waiting For. The computer context has a few projects, each beginning with a level one ( ) heading. (You can click on the image to see it full-sized.) ![]() A sample from my computer file is shown in this screenshot: The “md” file extension tells TextMate that these are Markdown files, which loads the Markdown bundle automatically when they are opened. My lists are kept in a set of files inspired by David Allen’s “contexts.” Currently, I haveĪll kept in a “gtd” folder in my home directory. Also, the format of my lists lends itself more to making nicely-printed index cards for my Hipster PDA. To my way of thinking, if I have to have the lists open in my editor for deletion, I might as well use the editor for insertion, too. The problem with this arrangement is that while FMP is great at adding items to lists (especially when combined with Quicksilver), does nothing to remove items when you’re done with them-you have to use your text editor to delete items. I prefer the simplicity and look of my system, but you should check them out to see if they fit your needs.Īnother diversion: Before resurrecting my old system I tried a combination of Fiendish Master Plan and GeekTool, FMP for creating and sorting the list items and GT for providing an always-ready display of the lists on my desktop. They are both under active development and definitely more featureful and automated than what I do. Although I could just write up the differences between last fall’s stuff and today’s, that would be too disjointed to follow, so this will be a complete description of my current system.īefore I get into it, though, I should mention that TextMate already has two (count’em, two) GTD list-managing bundles, GTD and GTDAlt. Last week I hauled myself back up on the wagon-at least the list-making and -monitoring part-and rewrote a few list-handling things to work with TextMate. Things seemed to be fine for a while, but disorganization gradually set in. When I moved from BBEdit to TextMate earlier this year, I fell off the GTD wagon and left my lists behind. Last fall I wrote a two-part post ( here and here) on GTD-style lists in text files using BBEdit. Next post Previous post Just a little GTD with TextMate ![]()
