I can not understand terminal navigations keymaps about neovim-from-scratch HOT 1 OPEN

I'm on Linux with nvim v0.9.0 and tried it in my own config.

What is supposed to be happening is while in terminal, you exit to normal mode <C-\\><C-N>. Then, switch a window in hjkl direction <C-w>l which doesn't seem to do anything.

In my config I was able to add a sleep in between both actions to fix this issue in a similar scenario. Haven't had luck doing that here (I haven't tried with [[ ]] maybe that would fix this; written differently since [[ ]] strings work differently.)

Notes for example below:

• Replace ":SymbolsOutline" with a plugin of your choice or a vim function, like :Vex (Vertical explorer). In this case, the window switches back to the previous window.
• Must have at least v0.8.0 for vim.keymap to exist and work.

Window change doesn't work:

vim.keymap.set("n", "<leader>zo", [[:SymbolsOutline<CR><C-w><C-w><CR>]])

Window change works:

vim.keymap.set("n", "<leader>zo", [[:SymbolsOutline<CR>:sl! 100m<CR><C-w><C-w><CR>]])
