Tabbed Terminals for Parallel Tasks
What This Does
Create multiple terminal tabs in one window so you can switch between different tasks without opening separate windows.
Why It's Useful
One window, multiple contexts. Keep your workspace clean while running different commands in separate tabs. Switch instantly between tasks without losing your place.
How to Do It
- Press Command + T to create a new tab
- Press Command + Shift + [ or Command + Shift + ] to switch between tabs
- Press Command + W to close the current tab
Try This Now
Open a new tab with Command + T, then run pwd in each tab. Notice how each tab maintains its own working directory independently.
Mental Hook: One window, multiple contexts.
