Ask your question!

The doc of window.perform_action says:

There are a number of actions that can be performed against a pane in a window when configured via the keys and mouse configuration options.

It seems to say that not all actions can be performed in that way.

I tried this

wezterm.on("cev-tab-switching", function(win, pane)
  win.perform_action(act:ActivateTab(1), pane)
end)

and got an error

10:43:05.374 ERROR wezterm_gui::termwindow > while processing cev-tab-switching event: error converting Lua userdata to wezterm_dynamic::Value (error getting tostring: error converting Lua nil to function)
stack traceback:
        [C]: in method 'ActivateTab'
        /Users/hapham/.config/wezterm/keymappings.lua:163: in function 

Does it mean that ActivateTab cannot be used with window.perform_action?

Context: I was trying to configure a key mapping to jump between tabs with fuzzy search

I achieved it with ShowLauncherArgs

{
  key = "t",
  mods = "LEADER",
  action = act.ShowLauncherArgs({ flags = "FUZZY|TABS"}),
},

but still curious about perform_action which I think is really helpful.

act:ActivateTab(1)

This should be act.ActivateTab(1)
(otherwise it is trying to call it like act.ActivateTab(act, 1) which is wrong.)
