Suppose ALT+h to mapped to <C-\><C-N><C-w>j as following Nvim documentation: nvim_terminal_emulator. We have two horizontally split windows with terminal buffers and the right window is activated.
After hitting ATL+h, the left window will be activated but the right window will be switched to normal mode automatically. Is it possible to let the right window stay in terminal mode for neovim? Or does neovim has equivalent terminal-typing which allows us to not leave the terminal mode.
:h <Cmd> pseudokey is answers this problem:
tnoremap <alt-h> <Cmd>wincmd h<CR>
tnoremap <alt-j> <Cmd>wincmd j<CR>
tnoremap <alt-k> <Cmd>wincmd k<CR>
tnoremap <alt-l> <Cmd>wincmd l<CR>
Also see :help <Cmd>.
startinsert will automatically scroll the screen to bottom. The problem for neovim is in order to run a command in terminal-insert mode, we have to leave this terminal-insert mode via <C-\><C-N> first.
<C-r> REGISTER to paste some text from a register, it doesn't make sense we have to leave terminal-insert mode first to run a command.
<cmd>. <c-\><c-n> should and will work the way it does.
