To quit copy mode, use one of the following keybindings: You can navigate the buffer as you would in your default editor. The default is emacs, unless VISUAL or EDITOR contains ‘vi’ Use vi or emacs-style key bindings in copy mode. Once in copy mode you can navigate the buffer including scrolling the history. The default permits direct access to the terminal attached to the window the other is copy mode. Tmux has a find-window option & key binding to ease navigation of many windows:Ĭtrl+b w (Select from interactive list of windows)Ī tmux window may be in one of several modes.

To create a new window you can use Ctrl+b c and move forward one window with Ctrl+b n and backwards one window with Ctrl+b p.Īdditional ways to move between windows include the following:Ĭtrl+b l (Move to the previously selected window)Ĭtrl+b w (List all windows / window numbers)Ĭtrl+b (Move to the specified window number, the default bindings are from 0 – 9)Ĭtrl+b q (Show pane numbers, when the numbers show up type the key to goto that pane) You may also use Alt (called Meta) instead of Ctrl. Tip: Quote special characters to use them as prefix. For example, the default prefix binding of Ctrl+b can be changed to Ctrl+a by adding the following commands in your configuration file: Key bindings may be changed with the bind and unbind commands in nf. Swapping panes is achieved in the same manner, but by hitting o instead of a directional key. Ctrl+b) and, while continuing to hold Ctrl, press Left/ Right/ Up/ Down. For example, to vertically split a window type Ctrl+b %.Īfter splitting a window into multiple panes, a pane can be resized by the hitting prefix key (e.g. A global configuration file may be provided at /etc/nf though by default Arch does not ship such a file.īy default, command key bindings are prefixed by Ctrl+b.

Optionally, install tmux-bash-completion-git AUR to provide bash completion functions for tmux.īy default, tmux looks for user-specific configuration at ~/.nf, though ~/.config/tmux/nf (hardcoded, $XDG_CONFIG_HOME is ignored) works too. Although similar, there are many differences between the programs, as noted on the tmux FAQ page. Tmux is an ISC-licensed alternative to GNU Screen. tmux may be detached from a screen and continue running in the background, then later reattached.' It wouldn't be hard.Tmux is a 'terminal multiplexer: it enables a number of terminals (or windows), each running a separate program, to be created, accessed, and controlled from a single screen. I'm considering whether I want to remove the feature, or just try to load them natively. There is also an ability to import teamocil and tmuxinator configs,, though it may be out of date with the latest config for them.

If you're already inside a tmux session and load a session via tmuxp, it will offer to switch-client for you. (I don't recall if this was tmuxinator or teamocil) If your tmux session is already loaded, it will offer to attach it for you instead of re-running. These are little conveniences I don't recall seeing in tmuxinator/teamocil in 2013 (I originally used both): Set custom indexes (window numbers) via config Can target bootstrap script via absolute path, relation to start_directory and relation to config directory.Ħ. before_script for bootstrapping project dependencies before launch. More ability to resolve paths relative to configuration file and relative to start_directory.ĥ.

tmuxinator's startup_window seems to only do window focusing, not pane focusing.Ĥ. So after the session is loaded, the cursor will be focused wherever you entered 'focus: true'. focusing a pane in each window, as well as window in the session. I will give a try at advantages, but take note its been a while and tmuxinator may have improved on these:ġ. In recent months, I spun off the low-level python library for mapping sessions, windows and panes to objects to libtmux it seemed like a superb candidate to create an object mapper for in python.

#TMUXINATOR LAYOUT OPTIONS MANUAL#

the often overlooked formats and targets options in the tmux manual had a lot of possibilities to do precise tweaks across sessions, windows and panes, but they were cumbersome to articulate. i was surprised to see how well thought-out and scriptable tmux was. At the time, both had a few itches to scratch. I haven't used teamocil or tmuxinator in a few years.
