perspective-tabs: An Emacs package that shows perspectives on the tab-bar.

#Perspectives in tab-bar

#Introduction

perspective-tabs-mode is an Emacs minor mode that shows the perspectives you create with Perspective for Emacs as tabs in the built-in tab-bar.

Warning: You need Emacs 27.1 or up.

#Usage

After activating perspective-tabs-mode you can use the tab-bar (top of your screen), to control the perspectives. Add new, close, switch.

#Installation

This package is not yet on Melpa, I'd like to get some feedback first. You can either clone the repository, or use straight.el.

#Clone the repository

Clone the repository to your local machine
Put the file perspective-tabs.el in your load-path (easiest is to copy it into your .emacs.d folder)
Add the following lines to your init.el after activating Perspective (persp-mode).

(require 'perspective-tabs)
(perspective-tabs-mode +1)

#Straight / use-package

Add the following snippet to your init.el:

(use-package perspective-tabs
  :after (perspective)
  :straight (:host sourcehut :repo "woozong/perspective-tabs")
  :init
  (perspective-tabs-mode +1))

#Credits

When building this, I had a long hard look at Bufler by alphapapa, especially the implementation in bufler-workspace-tabs.el.

I'm only hacking, while sitting on the shoulders of giants. Thanks! \m/
