Eyebrowse contribution layer for Spacemacs
Table of Contents
Description
This layer adds i3wm like workspaces thanks to the 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.
For now only numbers are supported for workspaces, it is not possible to set a label on them.
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.
Install
Layer
To use this contribution add it to your ~/.spacemacs
(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers '(eyebrowse))
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
(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers
'((eyebrowse :variables eyebrowse-display-help nil)))
