[9fans] listing windows for p9p acme

Hi,

I got annoyed at how, usually with many windows open, I sometimes struggle
to find where one of my windows is.

So I wrote https://github.com/mpl/lw , which seems to be helping a bit. I
run it from the main tag, so the output goes to Errors.

Hope that helps anyone else.

Cheers,
Mathieu

yes. when there are many windows, the situation gets chaotic,
that's my experience, too.

Further, the heuristics of placing new windows does not really help
at that moment :(

btw. Has somebody tried this?

Sorting columns with Sort helps a little with window management. Also, the
"Edit X" sam command does something similar to lw.

Oh, I didn't remember about Sort, thanks.

I'll be damned. I knew about "Edit X/foo/f" but I had never taken the time
to understand how it works, so I didn't know about something as powerful as
just Edit X. Thanks!
