Workspace switching

[silversword]

Has anyone played with Fileside?

I really like the idea of having a project/remember layout I can quickly switch between.
Right now I have lots of tabs on the left and right that are tabs used for different projects:
- Organizing audiobooks
- Organizing movies
- Organizing TV
- Working with FTP servers
- File space cleanup
etc.

It'd be great to be able to switch between each project mode that would easily remember sets of tabs left/right instead of either having tons of tabs everywhere, or having to manually create/load bookmarked paths every single time. Don't tell me something like this already exists

Tabs can be saved via context menu on the tabs themselves. This can also be done for both sides. The same way can be used to restore them. Restoring and saving tabs is also possible via the OPENTABS, OPENTABSL and OPENTABSR or the SAVETABS* commands, respectively. I suggest to use TC's command browser (cm_CommandBrowser) to see the available commands.

As Dalai points out - you can save and open tab sets with the OPENTABS and the SAVETABS commands.

I my Extended Menus I have made it reachable via the menu: See: https://tcmd.madsenworld.dk/foldertabmenu.png

You can use custom view mode to automatically load tabs, unfortunately we do not have any automatic command when leaving a custom view nor any easy way to know without some scripting current view mode.
If you can handle the savetab part you can do it !

Another way is to have one wincmd ini by environment you just have to use the redirect to share common parts. Restart TC when switching topic.

I personally use Custom View Mode and directory menu and several sub-menu to have folder shortcut by topic.
