This is something that I made up but use every single day, this is what keeps
much of what is on my blog or my teams private work wiki going.  I have a few
very important directories that I have assigned directly to a hotkey for fast
session switching.

``` bash
bind -n M-i new-session -A -s waylonwalker_com "cd ~/git/waylonwalker.com/ && nvim"
bind i popup -E -h 95% -w 95% -x 100% "tmux new-session -A -s waylonwalker_com 'cd ~/git/waylonwalker.com/ && nvim'"
bind -n M-I popup -E "tmux new-session -A -s waylonwalker_com 'cd ~/git/waylonwalker.com/ && nvim'"
```
