Yes. Right on the head.
Sorry for the mixup.
I had a couple more questions about vertical split & caption/status
lines:
1. After I do a vertical split, paging or searching is very slow on my
machine. Is this something to do with my configuration?
2. Now that we have vertical split, shouldn't we have "focus right" &
"focus left" commands, that could be bound to "h" and "l" for
consistency with "j" and "k"?
3. Since I've managed to squeeze everything I need into the hardstatus
:-) line, I would be in favor of having a "caption never" option
added. I defined a "caption splitonly "%{+d kk} " so as to have an
empty and mostly invisible line but it does waste a bit of space and
it does not look quite right especially with vim or mutt that already
use up a few lines at the bottom of the screen for their own
purposes. I don't suppose I could get rid of the caption line at this
point?
4. The vertical band that separates "windows" in vertical split mode.
Is there any way I could suppress it or make it less conspicuous?
5. Is it possible to split the screen and display the contents of
another window in a single action? Right now I'm on window #2 and I
would like to see what is in window #5 next to what I have in window
#2. What I do is C-A |, C-A Tab, C-A 5. Is there a better way?
6. The screen manual states that:
"Colors are coded either as a hexadecimal number or two letters
specifying the desired background and foreground color (..)"
I haven't been able to find the syntax for coding these hex numbers.
Is there any reason I would want to do so? Would they provide
additional functionality?
If anyone has answers to any of the above, I would appreciate.
Thank you.
