Multiple workspace PTYs can be tiled in the attached view, vim-style. Any pane can be split again — recursively — into a tree of vertical and horizontal splits. Each pane shows a 1-line title bar with the workspace name and a ● marker on the focused pane (which receives keystrokes).

The flow:

  1. Attach to a workspace as usual (Enter on the dashboard).
  2. Press Ctrl-x u to open the updates panel.
  3. Move to another workspace; press v (vertical) or s (horizontal) to add it as a new pane alongside the current one. Focus jumps to the new pane.
  4. Navigate between panes with Ctrl-x ←/→/↑/↓ — direction-aware walking up the split tree, like vim's Ctrl-w motions.
  5. Close the focused pane with Ctrl-x d. The other panes keep running; when the last pane closes you detach back to the dashboard.

When you split the focused pane again in the same direction as its parent, the new pane is inserted as a sibling instead of nesting deeper — matches vim and keeps the tree shallow.

Saving a layout. Ctrl-x d detaches without remembering how the panes were arranged. To keep the arrangement, press Ctrl-x Shift-D instead: wsx saves the split tree (and which pane was focused) against the anchor workspace — the first pane you attached to — then detaches to the dashboard. (Ctrl-x Esc just dismisses the navigation overlay and leaves you attached.) The next time you attach to that workspace, wsx restores the layout and respawns the side panes' sessions. Panes whose workspaces no longer exist are pruned on restore; if none survive you get a plain single-pane view. Workspaces with a saved multi-pane layout show a columns glyph next to their branch on the dashboard (nerd fonts only).
