Tab support
Coming from MacVim, most of VV worked pretty well. It's slower to boot up but after that it runs well enough.
The one feature I miss is native-like tab support. I was able to get close enough by adding these mappings in my ~/.config/nvim/init.vim:
" multi-tab interactions to behave like a gui
nmap <D-t> :tabnew<CR>
nmap <S-D-]> :tabnext<CR>
nmap <S-D-[> :tabprevious<CR>
That makes the keyboard shortcuts I was expecting to work actually do the job, but the user interface is klunky looking.
Hi @robacarp. Yes, this is possible via ui-tabline API, but it is not implemented yet. I will take a look at it.
I personally just customized the tabline to make it look nice and minimalistic: https://github.com/igorgladkoborodov/nvimconfig/blob/master/config/statusline.vim#L20-L61 And made mappings to be similar to native ones: https://github.com/igorgladkoborodov/nvimconfig/blob/master/config/mappings.vim#L25-L34
