## Perspeen
This is a package for GNU Emacs in order to make it much more convenient to work with multiple workspaces simultaneously.
## The History
Before using Emacs, I am a vimer and my coding work flow is `iTerms` + `Zsh` + `Tmux` + `Vim`. I often open multiple tmux windows. Each window
is an workspace, splitted with at least two panes; one pane runs `macvim`, and another pane below runs `zsh`. Each window has its own workspace.
The work flow is very convenient and efficient for me. There is a video presentation for this if your'r interested [iterm zsh tmux vim](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cCgJaOwCNaI)
When switch to Emacs, since I perfer the GUI Emacs, I have always been looking for a package which can replace these.
## Why named perspeen
This package is inspired from [perspective](https://github.com/nex3/perspective-el) and [elscreen](https://github.com/knu/elscreen). `perspective` is
good, but it has not tab-persist. This package, `perspeen`, is intended to combine both `perspective` and `elscreen`. Make the workspace has the tab-persist feature.
So the name is also combined from these two package names. `persp-een`.
Compared with `perspective`, this package supports multile tab in each workspace. Each workspace has its own tab list. Compared with `elscreen`, this package support separate the buffers against the workspace.
## Install and config
#### Install maunally
Now, `perspeen` is into melpa. Using `package-install` to install this package.
#### Using `el-get`
Using package management tool [el-get](https://github.com/dimitri/el-get)
``` emacs-lisp
(el-get-bundle seudut/perspeen
:features perspeen
(setq perspeen-use-tab t)
(perspeen-mode))
```
#### Using `use-package`
```emacs-lisp
(use-package perspeen
:ensure t
:init
(setq perspeen-use-tab t)
:config
(perspeen-mode))
```
## How to use - Commands
The defult prefix key of `perspeen-mode` is C-z. It can be changed by set the variable `perspeen-keymap-prefix`. like this to change the prefix key as C-c C-'.
``` emacs-lisp
(setq perspeen-keymap-prefix (kbd "C-c C-'"))
```
+ `perspeen-create-ws` - default key binding C-z c create a new workspace.
+ `perspeen-next-ws` - C-z n switch next workspace.
+ `perspeen-previous-ws` - C-z p switch previous workspace.
+ `perspeen-goto-last-ws` - C-z ' switch to last workspace.
+ `perspeen-goto-ws` - switch workspace with a numeric prefix.
+ `perspeen-ws-eshell` - C-z e start a `eshell` in current workspace.
+ `perspeen-delete-ws` - C-z k kill current workspace.
+ `perspeen-rename-ws` - C-z r rename current workspace.
+ `perspeen-change-root-dir` -C-z d change the root directory of current workspace.
+ `perspeen-ws-jump` -C-z 1..9 switch to the specific workspace. You can also use prefix key `C-u 1..9` for `perspeen-go-ws` command.
Below are the commands related to the tabs, set `perspeen-use-tab` to enable the tab
+ `perspeen-tab-create` - C-z t create a new tab in current workspace
+ `perspeen-tab-del` - delete current tab in current workspac
+ `perspeen-tab-next` - switch to nex tab of current workspace
+ `perspeen-tab-prev` - switch to previous tab of current workspace
See the screen shot below, like the `perspective`, the workspaces indicator are located on right of the mode line.
Use `perspeen-selected-face` to change the face of the current selected workspace.
### Some Known Issues
+ When using `perspeen-keymap-prefix` to set a prefix key, and the prefix key you want to use is used by other plugins, you may not be able to use `(setq perspeen-keymap-prefix (kbd "C-c C-'"))`,
you may need to unbind the prefix first. see [issue #8](https://github.com/seudut/perspeen/issues/8).
