I like mixing the keyboard and mouse. Yes I know
set mouse=a
exists, but it provides only some basic actions. I was wondering if you could map the mouse to allow moving split window panes around - something which is painful to do by keyboard. Do you know of something like this?
@ashwinvis @vim @neovim This _should_ work out of the box…? Does mouse dragging allow you to create a visual selection? If not, your terminal’s mouse reporting is probably not recognized correctly by (Neo)Vim, or it doesn’t report dragging at all.
@scy @ashwinvis @vim @neovim in my experience this works for *resizing* but not moving windows/panels around.
My solution to that is keyboard driven, but it’s a plugin i wrote which allows swapping the currently focused window with a different one, by typing its letter.
I only tested it on vim, not neovim, but if it’s possible to make it neovim compatible, i do welcome patches.

Ooh… like a tiling window manager. I will check it out. I like the labelled popups in front of panes.
I see something similar written in Lua.
@ashwinvis @vim @neovim Oh! Now I understand. Sorry.
Good question, I don’t know of any way, but I’d be interested in finding out, too, now ;)
