* Esc alternates between the last two panes; Toggleterm is goneGabriel Schneider2026-08-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Esc ran Toggleterm, which hopped between the newest DOC and the newest TERMINAL. That distinction never earned its keep. It made Esc unpredictable — which of three panes you landed on depended on their kinds, not on where you had been — and it could not alternate between two files at all, which is the case you hit most. Editing two files, Esc did nothing. The replacement already existed. Last (SPC j j) is "the pane you were in before this one, whichever it was": it walks the jump stack for the newest entry naming a different pane and restores its line and column. So Esc, and Shift-Esc in tty, now run Last, and Toggleterm is deleted rather than renamed — a third implementation of "go to the other pane" was the thing to avoid. SPC w t goes with it; the w group is the four directional moves, and the jump group already had SPC j j. Held down, Esc alternates. Two files, a file and its shell, a file and a +Search — all the same, because Last has no notion of kind to get wrong. This depends on the swap in the same series: Last reads the stack backwards, and until hopping stopped appending, the pane you came from could fall off it. windownav.snap needed only its keys and prose changed — its golden did not move at all, which is the useful evidence here: for the one scenario the old builtin handled well, Last produces an identical focus sequence. Coverage for what it did not handle is new: a unit test opens a second FILE by looking its name and asserts Esc alternates between two panes of the SAME kind, which is the case that used to be a no-op. Docs follow: tutor.txt, docs/helix-keys.md, docs/design.typ, and the builtin index goldens, which are now one row shorter. 75/75 snapshots, both unit suites, and the macOS ABI build all pass.

* focus history is a stack of locations, and the Jumplist is that same stackGabriel Schneider2026-08-01
One container, not two: focus_hist (a stack of pane ids rebuilt every sync) is now jumps[] + a current pointer, and the +Jumps buffer is a RENDERING of that array — nothing copies it, nothing shadows it. prevFocus, Toggleterm, Look's directory order, Back/Forward, Last and Jumplist all walk the one list. A pane id is reused, so a location that only remembered an id would retarget after a respawn: panes now carry a monotonic serial and an entry whose slot holds a different serial is dead. trackJump compacts those out and fixes the pointer in the same pass. The push rule lives in ONE place and says: a location is worth remembering when you cannot see it any more — a different pane, or more than a bodyful of rows away in the same one. So hjkl never grows the list and 100G, a search hit and a goto-definition do. Ctrl-o/Ctrl-i walk it, SPC j j toggles the last two, SPC j l lists them. Ctrl-i IS Tab on a legacy host, where the binding simply never fires and Tab-executes is untouched; kitty reports them apart. SPC j o/i work anywhere. Two goldens moved, both the SPC ? Help listing gaining four rows.
