* Description
This layer adds [[https://i3wm.org/][i3wm]] like workspaces thanks to the [[https://github.com/wasamasa/eyebrowse][eyebrowse]] package.
Once the layer is activated a new number is added to the right side of the
mode-line. This number corresponds to the currently active workspace number.
At startup, the workspace number 1 is active. Switching to a workspace will
create it if it does not exist. For instance at startup you can press
~SPC W 2~ to create the workspace 2.
The key bindings are registered in a micro-state displayed in the minibuffer.
The docstring of the micro-state displays the existing workspaces and the
currently active workspace has square brackets. Since this is a micro-state it
is possible to just preview a workspace, for instance press ~SPC W 2~ to see
what's on the workspace 2 then press ~TAB~ to go back to the previously
activated workspace.
It is also possible to give a label to a the current workspace by pressing
~r~ in the micro-state.
* Install
** Layer
To use this contribution add it to your =~/.spacemacs=
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers '(eyebrowse))
#+END_SRC
** Removing additional help
Once you know the key bindings to navigate between the workspaces you
may want to disable the exhaustive help in the workspace micro-state.
Set the variable =eyebrowse-display-help= to =nil=
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers
'((eyebrowse :variables eyebrowse-display-help nil)))
#+END_SRC
