How do you get the tab display? it's ALWAYs there top-right overlayed on the terminal. 4 squares in the top-right with numbers next to them. you have to click on that to get the tab switcher up... ctrl+shift+home is the same as clicking on this overlayed tab status. > > extra click AND the saving of space. doing "normal tabs" loses space and > > saves a click for tabs that FIT only (maybe 4 or 5 tabs for a normal width > > term) and then it begins to break down. > > I have 4 LCDs, 3800x2400, 3-4 tabs per terminal with 20-30 terminals is all > I need :) > Actually the main reason I like tab is that I want to visually see how many > tabs I have on 20+ terminals at a glance. > What you say is great if you only use 2-3 terminals. Not if you have 20+ :) http://www.enlightenment.org/ss/e-5247cd8dc72e51.27936288.png top-right. the 4 squares, numbers (2/4 means i'm looking at tab 2 out of 4 total) and the orange 1 is the # of terminals wanting attention right now. WHEN you click on the top-right square icon OR hit ctrl+shift+home you get the tab display and term titles, content and terms wanting attention (with the red siren) are displayed: http://www.enlightenment.org/ss/e-5247cdec2e93f3.26384645.png so it already displays a "summary" that you have tabs at all, how many, which one you are looking at (window title is changed to match title set by escapes for that tab, so you know the curent tab title, you see the content, you have number of available/open tabs, number of tabs wanting your attention. yes - it requires ctrl+shift+home to then visually see the whole set of tabs and which ones what whav titles and content and want attention - so it's one extra step, but the summary is there at all times using no extra screen space as it's small and overlayed. > > > 3) switching tabs is too fancy and too slow.
