Lines suggestion #788

Description

@ender1214

Working with Lines in Waves, I feel that there should be a separation into 2 distinct types: the current one that's dedicated history, and another for the what the user actually sees (i.e., lines / blocks). Both could be displayed on a block, preferably contrasted by color.

When a user clears the screen, the UI line # should reset back to 0, making lines easy to reference UI blocks without having to squint or scroll up or down to see what the line number we need to pass to a command.

Since clearing the pane removes all visual references, users will still have to pull up the history in order to find a line number currently anyway.

Lastly, it'd be nice to have the following too:

  • pinning a block
  • tagging / labeling blocks for better referencing
  • marking blocks to exclude from clearing
  • moving blocks to another tab
  • key commands when a block is selected, for example:
    • Delete and backspace to close a block
    • Cmd+R to re-run a block's command
    • Shift+up and Shift+down to reorder blocks

Thank you.
