Description

It would be nice to have the output of each process being shown inside a grid layout.

I have been playing around with concurrently and implemented something very simple:

https://github.com/lneves12/concurrently/commit/054cbd3dccecc42fedf8a107ad3f1dc7bc6220c6

Demo:

video_concurrently

Just wondering if this is something you would like to have in this library. If yes, I can clean up that code and add it under a: "--grid" option.

What do you think? Any suggestion?

Research direction

Start by reviewing the linked commit and the issue's demo to understand the proposed grid behavior and the intended --grid option. Done means concurrently can display each process output in a grid layout without changing the existing output modes; the payload names no files or tests to run.
