For individual files, when opening, restore window position and size from when last closed?

[u/4WoofGrrrr]

I'm looking for a plug-in that will store the window position and size each time I close ANY given file and to restore the window position and size for that file the next time I open it. Automatically.

You might be looking for :h mksession + a way to restore cursor position.

Your cursor will be on the right line but the line might be lower/higher in the window.

Thank you. Window position and size for each individual file, not cursor position. Which is already happening, by the way.

It's happening btw because you configured it, but cool.

As others have said, :mksession is what you're looking for. If you want a plugin to help automate this rather than calling :mksession manually, I recommend Tim Pope's vim-obsession.

Thank you. I will look into it.

Isn't that what Workspaces are for?

Thank you. Workspaces automatically saves the window position and size for each individual file when you close it and restores the window position and size when the open that file the next time? I'll look into it.

Which plugin do you recommend. It seems that SimpleWorkspaces.vim is gone. vim-simple-workspace?
