Hyper: Save window groups

[jrdnbwmn]

Idea for a new feature: ability to save window groups like you can in Terminal.

This is something I and a lot of other devs I know use all the time. I looked through current functionality and plugins and couldn't find anything that does this.

May be best as a plugin.

Saving windows/tabs/panes and their working directory is enough?
Or restoring remote SSH sessions is a big part of this ?

https://github.com/timolins/hyperlayout seems to solve this

Any update on this? I'd love to be able to remember window layouts on reload.

I could make this as a plugin ;) before session restoration if it's only the windows

[alongenosar]

you mean panes?

@alongenosar I could hack on this this weekend. Well see what I cam up with. If you only want one save at the end I can invoke something. But if you want memory session restoration, i'm not there yet. Backend dosen't support this as a plugin.

great

What i'm working on is a way to: Set an environment.
What I meant is

1. Open window and pane etc.
2. Save as profile.
3. Define base profile on startup.
4. Open different profile.

Sounds great!
let me know when I can test it.

Target 1: update Hyper window object: #3485

Hyperlayout seems to be discontinued and is no longer accepting pull requests. I would very much prefer if this basic functionality was provided in vanilla Hyper, it's been asked many times over the last several years.
