I want to love zellij but can't get over how it binds its own actions to practically every key (vs screen/tmux which take just one, the prefix). Do people who use it not use any programs that use control or alt keys?
- kzrdude 4y agoI also trying to come to terms with this, mostly need to design new custom key settings. Zellij has Lock interface, default Ctrl+G, which you can use and in that mode it only takes that one key, but it's a bit different from how screen works.
- dmd 4y agoYeah, but that's more than twice as many keypresses now.
- OrderlyTiamat 4y agoI recommend using tmux mode and adding its keybind to locked mode, that way you get the same key interactions as tmux itself. Sadly, zellij doesn't offer the same options for which key that will be (in screen and tmux I like using C-] cause it's usually unused, but you can't use that one in zellij)
- patrickkidger 4y agoThis can be changed: I use zellij and just rewrote its config file to place almost all the keys in a single mode, basically 1-1 with tmux. That said, I must admit that zellij doesn't add a whole lot to my workflow relative to tmux. I think I'm just easily distracted by the new-and-shiny.
