One quickterm per workspace? #14

Open dbrandesky opened 4 years ago

dbrandesky commented 4 years ago

I'm fairly new to this application so forgive me if I'm missing something obvious. Is there a way to spawn a new terminal session for each quickterm invoked on different workspaces? For example right now if I open a quickterm on workspace 3 and start a 'ping' operation, then go to workspace 4 and open a quickterm again, I see the same ping operation from workspace 3. I'd like to have a "fresh" terminal on workspace 4.

Persisting sessions regardless of workspaces was part of my original wish list when I wrote the tool for myself, so your case has not really been considered.

But it's definitely possible with some code. I can have a look and see if there is a not-too-ugly way to add this mode. Otherwise, I can also give you pointers to achieve that with your personal version of the script.
