How to use terminal while coding in vim?
linux, terminal, vim
Solution
I use Ctrl-z to suspend `vim`, and fg to call it back.
If you want to do 3+ tasks at the same time, I suggest `tmux`.
Problem
I have a few php files open in Vim, at the same time I want to list files from specific folder in the same server in terminal. How should I do that ? For example: In terminal, I am in devserver:~$ Using Vim, I have opened few files to continue my work. Now, to do other operations on the same server (for example, I would like to list files from styles/), how do I use the terminal window/tab ? What I do: In one tab, open files using Vim and In another tab do other operations in same server (like listing/removing etc). In this case, I have to do ssh login for each tab. Is there any way where I can code using Vim and do other operations in the same server in terminal ? Please guide me for the best practices for this.
