Sync tabs (like :sync for panes)

Question

Hi,

I added commands to my $MYVIFMRC that can synchronize the view of the next tab to the current pane's directory or directory under the current cursor. Just posting it here in case it's useful for anyone else and in case anyone wants to suggest another alternative.

" Sync next tab to current directory
command! TabSync : let $DIR_CUR = "%d"
                \| tabnext
                \| cd "$DIR_CUR"
                \| tabprev
nnoremap <a-u> :TabSync<cr>
" Sync next tab to directory under cursor
command! TabSyncCursor : let $DIR_CUR = "%c"
                      \| tabnext
                      \| cd "$DIR_CUR"
                      \| tabprev
nnoremap <a-p> :TabSyncCursor<cr>

I use it in combination with other sync keymaps like below:

" Sync other pane to current directory
nnoremap <a-i> :sync<cr>
" Sync other pane to directory under cursor
nnoremap <a-o> :sync %c<cr>
