I use tmux splits (panes). Inside one of these panes there's a Vim process, and it has its own splits (windows).

In Vim I have key bindings C-h/j/k/l set to switch windows in the given direction. (Vim default mappings for windows switching are the same, but prefixed with C-W.) I'd like to use the same keystrokes for switching tmux panes.

An extra goal that I've solved with a dirty hack is to toggle between last active panes with C-\.

Here's how it should work:

Each of these commands will run an ad hoc http static server in your current (or specified) directory, available at http://localhost:8000. Use this power wisely.

2) unlike config files, there is little chance of them being checked
into the code repo accidentally

3) unlike custom config files, or other config mechanisms such as Java

What is this about?

Convert your ruby app to run on JRuby (often fairly painless) then deploy it by generating a JAR file (should be reasonably painless) and copying it to the servers you're running on (should be bordering on trivial).

If you've never done Java programming, a JAR is a "Java ARchive" file which is basically a single ZIP file containing all the stuff your app needs to run. So you can install java on a new machine and copy the JAR file onto it, and you're ready to go.

What's wrong with how we do it now?

The usual way of deploying a Ruby app is to write (or copypasta) some Capistrano recipes to have the production machines check it out from a git repo then build it in exactly the same way you do on your Mac. This has downsides:
