Most important key is missing: Ctrl-b
Under customizing you see, that I bound it to Control-b. I thought this is so basic, one should know at least this. But I add it now. Thx
Hi you propably forgot the most important:
C-b :setw synchronize-panes
..which allows you to type simultaneously in different panes.
/Tom
Good thing, I will try and then add this. But so far I have not hat the situation where I needed this :-)
Why is this cheatsheet divided into 2 pages, when it could fit in 1?
I have no clue. I don't think that I have influence on this. This seems to be pdf-generation-magic.
very good
