A question/suggestion - constant letters for buffers #16

Open samuellawerentz opened 1 month ago

samuellawerentz commented 1 month ago

I think the alphabets keep on changing for a buffer. Once a buffer is assigned a letter, it mustn't change until it is closed. This way, i can remember the key's for the particular buffer I'm interested in.

Right now, the alphabets change and everytime I have to read the list to figure which keys to press, and reading the list takes time. I just want to go to the file in just a thought.

One suggestion would be to assign only new keys to newly opened buffers.

You can see the letters have completely changed.

I know it is a big ask, but do you think it would be useful?
