[Feature Request] Option to show buffers in tabline #70

Open smolck opened 5 years ago

smolck commented 5 years ago

With the external tabline enabled, only the current tab is shown (as expected). It would be nice to be able to show the current buffer(s) too, as with lightline.vim and lightline-buffer in terminal Neovim, as here:

The "tabs" in the above photo are really the currently open buffers.

Personally, I use buffers almost exclusively, and so this would be a large improvement as I wouldn't have to disable the external tabline.

Hi :D Looks like an attractive proposal. Is your suggestion to add a mode that displays a buffers instead of tabs? Or do you want to see both buffers and tabs?

smolck commented 5 years ago

For a starting point, an option to show only buffers is fine, since that is what lightline-buffer does and when using buffers, tabs aren’t really necessary IMO. But it might be interesting to also have an option to show buffers on the left and tabs on the right. For now though, my suggestion is to provide an option for the tabline to show only buffers.
