Here, I’ll walk you through how to set a hotkey in iTerm2 in order to open a new window that automatically logs onto the HPC. If you find yourself using the terminal daily, it’s a good time to switch – even just the basic features iTerm2 offers makes the installation worth it. Probably not what you wanted to hear but maybe useful anyway.ITerm2 is a terminal editor that replaces OSX’s default terminal application. The tabs that I didn't interact with that often just go on a separate workspace. That's what completely replaced the VSCode terminal for me.

Not sure how it is on Mac but on Linux it's pretty easy to setup a drop-down/scratchpad terminal that you can just show when you need it at the press of a key and hide it again when you're done with it for the moment. Also if you're making use of the terminal tabs from VSCode then at least for me in fact most of the tabs that I had open didn't need to be super accessible at all times. I need to find a way to get something similar on the bottom of my screen."Īfter a while I realized it's just a scratchpad terminal and there's definitely no good reason why it should always be in view taking up precious screen real estate. "I really like the built-in horizontal terminal from VSCode and use it so much. When I first switched from VSCode to nvim I had the exact same thought: Now your 2 split panes are exactly where you want them, navigated to the directories you want, you can set up multiple tabs for multiple projects, etc. Boot up iterm and hit CMD+Shift+R to restore your saved session arrangement.Or you can just cd to the directory you want on bottom, the world is 100% wide open). Maybe you have a neovim profile and a shell profile. Use 2 different profiles for top and bottom. (You can set up each split as a profile that will run a command on start.so you can open neovim in the directory you want up top and build/run your project on the bottom split. Now, you can set up your iTerm instance to do a million things here.Resize your bottom pane to the percentage you want and size your entire iTerm application.Navigate to the directories you want to work in both on top and bottom.Split horizontally with your current profile (CMD+Shift+D).In iTerm, you can already split horizontal with CMD+Shift+D.
Technically what you're looking for with 2 splits, one on top, one on bottom is, somewhat confusingly, called a "Horizontal Split", not a vertical split.

Plus iterm has a great tmux integration, so if you're going to go tmux anyway for session persistence, just use iterm for your main stuff. Tmux can do amazing things.but if you're anything like me, if you're not missing them now, you're not going to use them when you switch. The only reason I use tmux at all is because I use linux and I can't use iTerm.
There is zero reason to use tmux for splitting panes in iTerm.
