Vim, Tmux, Rspec on MacOS
My current programming setup is the use of Vim, Tmux and Rspec on MacOS.
Launchbar
Apple + Space, “it” + Enter to open ITerm2
Apple + Space, “fi” + Enter to open Firefox
ShiftIt
Alt + Apple + Ctrl + Left Arrow Key to make Iterm fill the left half the screen
Alt + Apple + Ctrl + Right Arrow Key to make Firefox fill the right half the screen
iTerm2
$ gitx
$ tmux
Ctrl + a (tmux prefix) then c(reate)
I then open 4 tmux windows, one for vim, one for the server(s), rspec and one for tail or other commands.
$ vim
$ rails s
EDIT: I now automate tmux
I then go about coding.
Using vim-turbux I can run a Spec in one of Tmux splits. I often use JRuby which can be a little slow to warmup so often have the specs running in a seperate window instead of a split.
