How to change views between 2 running tasks

I have 2 vite clients running at the same time, and i wish to change the visible logs that i see in the terminal (similar to how turbo does it), is there any way to do this? im running them like so:

{
"workspace": ["main", "test"],
    "tasks": {
        "dev": {
            "dependencies": ["dev:test", "dev:main"]
        },
        "dev:test": {
            "command": "deno task --cwd=./test dev"
        },
        "dev:main": {
            "command": "deno task --cwd=./main dev"
        }
    }
}

{
"workspace": ["main", "test"],
    "tasks": {
        "dev": {
            "dependencies": ["dev:test", "dev:main"]
        },
        "dev:test": {
            "command": "deno task --cwd=./test dev"
        },
        "dev:main": {
            "command": "deno task --cwd=./main dev"
        }
    }
}

Thats not possible with deno , for now you'll have to run each task in its own terminal or tab

I'm genuinely curious as I'm not familiar with how turbo handles logs. What do they do different to the logs? Maybe it's something we can add to Deno too

im not sure if u mean what it looks like on the surface but, they pretty much have their own tab system, u can change between them using the arrow keys, when u want to interact with a specific terminal (for example the terminal that vite presents) u press i, they also have a bunch of inputs to interact with the terminal (go up and down etc..) really useful for monorepos in my experience.. (as someone who usually has 8 different things running for the sake of one client...). Definitely suggest adding it. I'll add it as a suggestion in github in a bit.
