Clients associated with the currently active editor will appear highlighted. You might do the latter when you want to change the context in which you eval something, for example. This list allows you to disconnect a client, which often kills the process it is associated to, or unset a client associated to an editor. To open it, use the Connections item in the View menu or the Connect: Show connect bar command. The connect pane shows you a list of currently connected “clients” that can be used for doing language operations like eval. This allows you to type “mcf” to match “my-cool-file” and so on, dramatically increasing efficiency of filter operations. All filter lists inside of Light Table use a form of sequential partial substring matching, which is a fancy way of saying that you can type letters and as long as those letters appear in order in one of the list items it will be considered a match. The navigate tab is a “filter list” where typing in the top input will filter the results down to those that match what you’ve typed.
Opening it is bound to Cmd/Ctrl+O by default. Once you have files and folders in your workspace, the navigate pane provides the quickest way to open a file by name. When you open a new window of Light Table, you’ll be given a new blank workspace - if you want to switch to a recently used one, click the recent button and select one of your old workspaces from the list. Once you have items in your workspace, you can use the right-click context menu to do the standard file actions you would expect (rename, delete, new file, etc) as well as remove them from the workspace if you no longer want them there. You can then add files or folders to the workspace using the buttons at the top. To open the workspace tree, click the Workspace item in the view menu. The workspace tree allows you to instead add files and folders into a file explorer that you can then use to open/rename/delete/etc the files you’re interested in. Opening each file individually through the native open dialogs isn’t very efficient.
