Keybinding for switching between the editor and the terminal.

[ubaldot]

When I was using gvim I use to have a vertical split with the editor in one split and a vimterminal on the other split running IPython.
I used to jump to/from the editor/terminal with <c-w><c-w>, now I have no clue how to that.
Can someone help, please?

Not Vim command but on VSCode have you tried CTRL + `?

hey @ubaldot,

the answer above toggles the terminal.

To achieve the exact behavior you are looking for, you could can map it directly in your keybindings.json. For example, I have amped up the regular mappings to move to the next h | j | k | l window (e.g. <c-w>j <c-w>k etc.) to just <c-j> <c-k> etc.. For the terminal it is necessary to specify an additional condition. You can similarly map it to your preferred keys.

	{
		"key": "ctrl+j",
		"command": "workbench.action.focusBelowGroup",
		"when": "!editorFocus && !inSearchEditor && !inputBoxFocus"
	},
	{
		"key": "ctrl+k",
		"command": "workbench.action.focusAboveGroup",
		"when": "!editorFocus"
	},
	{
		"key": "ctrl+k",
		"command": "workbench.action.focusLastEditorGroup",
		"when": "terminalFocus"
	},
