cycle through split, stacked, tabbed modes with single shortcut (and skip stacked mode, too)
I somewhat find pressing Alt+w, Alt+e and Alt+s to use the different modes confusing due to the following reasons:
- I fail to see the difference between the stacked and the tabbed mode (and would like to just use tabbed instead)
- I can think of no obvious mnemonics.
- I strain my fingers cycling between the three modes (especially when I keep forgetting which shortcut corresponds to which layout - due to the non-obvious mnemonics mentioned above).
I would like to define a single shortcut that would toggle between only the two of the three modes that I find relevant: tabbed and split (default). Can I accomplish that in the config file?
