## Summary of the Pull Request Adds support for the `move-focus` subcommand to `wt.exe`. This subcommand works _exactly_ like `moveFocus(up|down|left|right)`. ## References * Will surely conflict with #8183 * Is goodness even in the world where #5464 exists ## PR Checklist * [x] Closes #6580 * [x] I work here * [x] Tests added/passed * [x] Docs PR: MicrosoftDocs/terminal#209 ## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments Bear with me, I wrote this before paternity leave, so code might be a bit stale. Oddly, after startup, this _does not_ leave the focus on the pane you moved to. If you `move-focus` during startup, at the end of startup, we'll still focus a _random_ pane. This is because the terminal still auto-focus a TermControl when it's done with layout. While we'll maintain the active control just fine during the startup, at the end of startup, all the controls will complete layout in a random order. This is no different than the startup right now. `wt sp ; sp ; sp` will focus a random pane at the end. This is left for a future someone to fix This is also subject to #2398 / #4692. Moving in a direction isn't _totally_ reliable currently. `focus-pane -t ID` will certainly be more reliable, but this will work in the meantime? ## Validation Steps Performed Opened probably 100 terminals, confirmed that the layout was always correct. Final focused pane was random, but the layout was right.
