Toggle an empty screen in vim, see through a transparent window
I work in Vim(not GVim, or MacVim etc), and I've taken use a non-opaque terminal, so I can see my background behind it(which is this movement cheat-sheet)
I'd like a way, to make the instance of vim a blank screen, then be able to re-draw it as it was before. Maybe I'm just failing at my web-searching, but I can't find anything towards this issue.
I'm more than grateful for anything, even just a link to some documentation method that can get me started down the rabbit hole.
If you edit a new buffer (in a file that doesn't exist) you'll get a blank screen
:ed foo
When you're done you can just delete it
:bd
