Support for better keyboard navigation for extreme_tabs

Asked by Nikhil Kale

I know the terminator_config man already warns about the feature, however, I really like the concept and the functionality offered by extreme_tabs. Just like the keybindings for opening new tabs changes, it would be really useful to add few more bindings for navigation when this feature is turned on

Current:

 Ctrl+Shift+T
        Open new tab

Ctrl+Shift+Alt+T
        Open new tab at root level, if using extreme_tabs.

Ctrl+PageDown
        Move to next Tab

Ctrl+Alt+PageDown (suggested)
        Move to next Tab at root level, if using extreme tabs

Ctrl+PageUp
        Move to previous Tab

Ctrl+Alt+PageUp (suggested)
        Move to previous Tab at root level, if using extreme tabs

Few more I can think of. I do understand these keybindings would get overly confusing and complex as the level of child tags increases. May be we can limit all these navigation to 1 level of child tabs. Beyond that, it anyways might be more easier/useful to use mouse to click thru various tabs

-----------
Ctrl+Shift+N or Ctrl+Tab
       Move to next terminal within the same tab, use Ctrl+PageDown to move to the next tab. If cycle_term_tab is False, cycle
       within the same tab will be disabled

Ctrl+Shift+Alt+N or Ctrl+Alt+Tab (suggested)
       Move to next terminal within the same tab at root level, use Ctrl+PageDown to move to the next tab. If cycle_term_tab is
       False, cycle within the same tab will be disabled

Ctrl+Shift+P or Ctrl+Shift+Tab
        Move to previous terminal within the same tab, use Ctrl+PageUp to move to the previous tab. If cycle_term_tab is False,
        cycle within the same tab will be disabled

Ctrl+Shift+Alt+P or Ctrl+Shift+Alt+Tab
        Move to previous terminal within the same tab at root level, use Ctrl+PageUp to move to the previous tab. If cycle_term_tab
        is False, cycle within the same tab will be disabled

Ctrl+Shift+PageDown
        Swap tab position with next Tab

Ctrl+Shift+Alt+PageDown (suggested)
        Swap tab position with next Tab at rool level

Ctrl+Shift+PageUp
        Swap tab position with previous Tab

Ctrl+Shift+Alt+PageUp (suggested)
        Swap tab position with previous Tab at rool level

Could you turn this into a bug report using the link on the right of the launchpad webpage? It sounds like an interesting wishlist item :)

Can you help with this problem?
