Description
Neovim has a neat terminal emulator. If you call :terminal then the active buffer will turn into a terminal buffer => https://neovim.io/doc/user/nvim_terminal_emulator.html
Don't know enough about the inner workings of that but:
Would it be possible to have vim-obsession also save those :terminal buffers?
