| * I'm pretty busy these days and tmux is way down my list of priorities, so |
| don't expect a lot of progress soon. Contributions welcome! |

| Command prefix is C-b. This can be changed by building with, for example: |
| |
| META=\\001 make |
| |
| Commands: d detach |
| c create new terminal |
| n next terminal |
| p previous terminal |
| r refresh screen |
| t set window name |
| 0-9 select window |
| |
| There is one default server process per user which puts its socket in |
| /tmp/tmux-UID. It is created the first time tmux is run and subsequent |
| invocations will connect to the same server. The server holds multiple |
| sessions. |
| |
| Syntax is: tmux [-v] [-n name] [-s path] command |
| |
| The command is either list, new or attach. Create a new session with: |
| |
| tmux new |
| |
| Optionally giving it a name with: |
| |
| tmux -n <session name> new |
| |
| Attach to a previous session with: |
| |
| tmux -n <session name> attach |
| |
| A name must (currently) be specified when attaching. This may change. |
| |
| List all sessions with: |
| |
| tmux list |
| |
| Or the windows of a single session with: |
| |
| tmux -n <session name> list |
| |
| Sessions are destroyed when no windows remain attached to them. |
| |
| Another server process can be used by specifying an alternative socket path |
| with "-s <path>" but it shouldn't normally be required. |
| |
| You can set the window title (listed in -l), using the \e] escape sequence. For |
| example: |
| |
| $ echo -n \\033]0;My Title\\007 |
| |
| There is currently no method for setting the window name (what will eventually |
| be shown in the status bar). |
| |
| You might get message "couldn't find server" after a crash, in this case you |
| must remove the /tmp/tmux-`id -u` file manually. |
