different fonts in each tab?

[Richard Mitchell]

Is it possible to have different fonts or at least different sizes in each tab?

I'm assuming the answer is no but maybe I'm just holding it wrong.

Yes, you can. And even better, you can have different fonts in different windows in the same tab. With goneovim [1], which implements neovim’s multigrid [2], you can simply use `GonvimGridFont "Font Name:h14"` [3] it offers to set up the font you like. Please see the attached screenshot for a preview.

BTW it is neovim. Sorry for that :-P

Richard, for MacVim, there is no MacVim specific way to make different tab have different fonts. But right now you could potentially set up autocmd for TabEnter to change guifont to whatever you like.

Regarding goneovim, I tried that feature out. It seems to still be experimental according to the README? It seems to be quite buggy as the moment I tried resizing a vertical split it starts to not draw correctly or leaves blank space. It's essentially permanently detaching said window using multigrid and so doesn't respond to split resizing anymore. Maybe it's still WIP? Still useful though.
