0:00Jump to any tab by number, and give your tabs real, memorable names.

0:04In tab mode, the number keys 1 through 9 jump directly to a tab by its index.

0:16Switch to rysh mode and name the active tab with ##tab name. Here we call it backend.

0:28Add a tab ID before the name to rename any tab, not just the active one -- ##tab name, id, then name.

Key takeaway
Jump to tabs instantly by number, and name them with ##tab name so layouts stay readable.
