Current session not in the list - sometimes

[stepanzak]

When I first enter the sessionx menu with \+O, there are all sessions except the current one. When I select any of them and press \ and rename it to anything (or just press enter to leave it the same), the current session also appears on the list. This happens only when I have more sessions than one.

Yep, actually that was done intentionally to filter out the current session on first glance for the quick switch which is 90% of my use of the plugin. After rename I bring it back assuming the user is running organization tasks and would want to rename the current session as well.

@stepanzak That said, I understand it's not a consistent behaviour and feels awkward. WDYT?

Hmm, it actually makes lot of sense when you say it. Showing the current session is AFAIK useful only for renaming and for that you usually use \+$. The problem is that it's confusing. I can think of a few options:

• always show current session but always list it as last item (not sure if it's possible in FZF
• make a keybinding to toggle it's visibility
• leave the behavior as is but clearly communicate it in the README or even in the program (not sure how, maybe after renaming session, show a text "current session shown" somewhere?)
• don't show it at all

I'm not a UX expert or anything though, this is just what was on top of my head

@stepanzak Yep I thought of all of these... I think I'll go with the readme option + a configureable option to have it on by default
