gim
gim is a simple command line tool for quickly creating Vim or Emacs
editing sessions by choosing files from a selection menu gathered from
the output of the git status or ls-files subcommands.
Vim mode (default)
When 2 files are selected it will fetch your terminal width and create a vertical split window when > 161 characters are available. Otherwise the files will be shown in a horizontal splitted window.
When >2 files are selected, all files will be opened as vim tabs.
Emacs mode (-e or --emacs)
If -e or --emacs argument is given, each file will be opened in a new Emacs frame with emacsclient.
