Just wondering: does anyone really want the focus stolen from the editor when starting a REPL? It just occurred to me, after 5 years of using Cursive, that I get annoyed every time I start a REPL and I suddenly have to grab the mouse and re-focus the editor…and everyone else I know does as well. I think most of us send our commands from the editor. Perhaps worth a fix?
I use IdeaVIM. Esc puts me in edit mode in the little input window
Ah, but a second escape does bring me back to editor. Never thought to try it twice in a row (not sure why..guess I just didn’t think it would matter)
Chiming in on hiding the input UI. For beginners hiding the REPL input may be very confusing.. so I would be sure to document how to find it.
Yes, I’m definitely a bit torn on that one. If I do end up doing that, it will definitely be configurable, and I’ll think about how to best communicate the change.
Piling onto this: I'd be happy with an option to eliminate the input area from the repl entirely. As it is, I shrink it to the smallest size possible
