# Recipes
## Working with headless sessions with _kak-shell_
`kak-shell :attach` lets you run a client connected to a session, just like the plain `kak -c <session-name>`.
But with `kak-shell :attach`, you have a list of all the active sessions and you can also create a new named session
which starts in headless mode, which is very useful for detaching and reattaching continually.
Therefore, `kak-shell :attach` replaces `kak -c <session-name>` and `kak -d -s <session-name>`
and can serve to spawn a client in whatever situation you are.
**Tip**: Alias `kak-shell` to `ks` and connect to a session with `ks a`.
## Custom prompt
You can modify your shell [prompt][Prompt customization] to notify you whenever you are connected to a session.
[Prompt customization]: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Bash/Prompt_customization
**Example** – for Bash:
``` bash
PS1='$(test "$IN_KAKOUNE_CONNECT" && printf 🐈)$ '
```
Available variables are:
- `IN_KAKOUNE_CONNECT` (_1_ when _true_)
- `KAKOUNE_SESSION`
- `KAKOUNE_CLIENT`
## Change directory
In complement to `:cd!` which syncs the client to your current working directory,
you can do the opposite.
Add to your bashrc:
``` bash
if [ "$IN_KAKOUNE_CONNECT" = 1 ]; then
alias :cd='cd `:pwd`'
alias :cd?='cd `:bwd`'
fi
```
## Turn Kakoune into an IDE
``` kak
define-command ide -params 0..1 -docstring 'ide [session-name]: Turn Kakoune into an IDE' %{
# Session name
try %{
rename-session %arg{1}
}
# Main client
rename-client main
set-option global jumpclient main
# Tools client
new %{
rename-client tools
set-option global toolsclient tools
}
# Docs client
new %{
rename-client docs
set-option global docsclient docs
}
# Project drawer
dolphin
# Git
> lazygit
# Terminal
>
}
```
