** Tab Bar Setup
Since version 27 Emacs features a tab bar. In contrast to e.g. a browser a tab does not display just one file/buffer/window but an Emacs tab features an entire window configuration. Since I use Emacs not just for programming but (perhaps even mainly) for personal information management (including mail, agenda, journal, IRC and RSS) I had the idea to have one Emacs frame open with different tabs for all these things. Therefore I wrote a ~mmk2410/tab-bar-setup~ function (bound to =C-c f C-f=) creating the following setup:
- First tab: *Mail* with mu4e
- Second tab: *Agenda / Journal* with an Org agenda on the left and an Org journal on the right
- Third tab: *IRC* with ERC
- Fourth tab: *RSS* with elfeed
This is accompanied with five helper functions to switch to the wished application in the correct tab and window.
|------------+-----------------------------------+------------|
| *Applicaton* | *Command* | *Keybinding* |
| Mail | ~mmk2410/tab-bar-switch-to-mail~ | =C-c f m= |
| Agenda | ~mmk2410/tab-bar-switch-to-agenda~ | =C-c f a= |

Since I use Emacs not just for programming but (perhaps even mainly) for personal information management (including mail, agenda, journal, IRC and RSS) I had the idea to have one Emacs frame open with different tabs for all these things. Therefore I wrote a small package found in =packages/mmk2410-tab-bar-helpers.el= which I explain in a [[https://mmk2410.org/2022/02/11/using-emacs-tab-bar-mode/][dedicated blog post]].
