Tabs and Windows
|
||||
-------------------
|

|
||||
|kitty| is capable of running multiple programs organized into tabs and
|
||||
windows. The top level of organization is the *Tab*. Each tab consists
|
||||
of one or more *windows*. The windows can be arranged in multiple
|
||||
different layouts, like windows are organized in a tiling window
|
||||
manager. The keyboard controls (which are all customizable) for tabs and
|
||||
windows are:

|

======================== =======================
|
||||
|
||||
Additionally, you can define shortcuts in :file:`kitty.conf` to focus neighboring
|
||||
windows and move windows around (similar to window movement in vim)::
|
||||
|
||||
map ctrl+left neighboring_window left
|
||||
map shift+left move_window right
|
||||
map ctrl+down neighboring_window down
|
||||
map shift+down move_window up
|
||||
...
|
||||
|
||||
You can also define a shortcut to switch to the previously active window::
|
||||
|
||||
map ctrl+p nth_window -1
|
||||
|
||||
``nth_window`` will focus the nth window for positive numbers and the
|
||||
previously active windows for negative numbers.
|
||||
|
||||
.. _detach_window:
|
||||
|
||||
You can define shortcuts to detach the current window and
|
||||
move it to another tab or another OS window::
|
||||
|
||||
# moves the window into a new OS window
|
||||
map ctrl+f2 detach_window
|
||||
# moves the window into a new Tab
|
||||
map ctrl+f3 detach_window new-tab
|
||||
# asks which tab to move the window into
|
||||
map ctrl+f4 detach_window ask
|
||||
|
||||
Similarly, you can detach the current tab, with::
|
||||
|
||||
# moves the tab into a new OS window
|
||||
map ctrl+f2 detach_tab
|
||||
# asks which OS Window to move the tab into
|
||||
map ctrl+f4 detach_tab ask
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, you can define a shortcut to close all windows in a tab other than
|
||||
the currently active window::
|
||||
|
||||
map f9 close_other_windows_in_tab
