Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating the editor's key-binding and open-file navigation handling, then determine whether the shortcut should cycle files or open a file window. Done means ALT + ` (also ~) provides the agreed open-file navigation behavior.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
I noticed that when I edit multiple files the only way to cycle between open files is to do the following:
ALT + v
s "Focus Statusbar" or f "Go to file" or CTRL + P
#naigate to file with arrow keys
enter
An alternative to reduce the number of keystrokes could be
ALT + ` (also the ~ key)
This could either cycle directly between all open files or show the open file window.
I would be happy to take a look at adding this if this is a desired feature (and it isn't already present)
