Zellij Jump List

A Zellij plugin for navigating your motions from pane-to-pane.

Inspired by the jump list commonly in editors like vim, nvim, emacs.

Usage

• Up and Down or j and k to cycle through the jump pane list
• Enter to go back to the selected pane
• Esc to exit

Why?

Briefly: to quickly go to previous panes.

• Can jump to old panes from different tabs.
• Easy to use.

Installation

Requires Zellij 0.38.0 or newer.

Note: you will need to have wasm32-wasi added to rust as a target to build the plugin. This can be done with rustup target add wasm32-wasi.

git clone https://github.com/blank2121/zellij-jump-list.git
cd zellij-jump-list
./install.sh

If install.sh does not run or does not have the permission to run, run chmod +x ./install.sh

All ./install.sh does is compile it and move the .wasm to ~/.config/zellij/plugins/

Keybinding

Add the following to your zellij config somewhere inside the keybinds section:

shared_except "locked" {
    bind "Ctrl y" {
        LaunchOrFocusPlugin "file:~/.config/zellij/plugins/zellij-jump-list.wasm" {
            floating true; move_to_focused_tab true;
        }
    }
}

You likely already have a shared_except "locked" section in your configs. Feel free to add bind there.
