Jan 17, 2016 · Working with the Screen code, back in 2002, was educational and enjoyable for me. Oddly enough, for all its additional features, Tmux has about 25% fewer lines of code than Screen (30k vs 40k). I noticed that Tmux uses many tree and list data structures, which were slightly difficult for me to understand. Screen seemed to prefer arrays.

Your local tmux interprets it as the prefix key; nothing is sent to the processes running under the local tmux. You type CTRL+B. Your local tmux has it bound to the send-prefix command.

Jul 1, 2022 · It looks like a guide that deviates from the tmux standard in the very beginning: The command ‘ctrl-b’ is replaced with ‘crtl-a’ along with some other changes. Note in this answer I assume the default configuration. In particular I assume the prefix is Ctrl+b. The real documentation is here: tmux(1) manual page.

Jul 16, 2015 · tmux new-session -t 0 || tmux. I don't think that you can create sessions with a specific session number, so you might want to consider using a session name. However a custom socket may well be good enough for your situation. I'm assuming here that if session 0 doesn't exist that it will be created.

See the FAQ entry about 256 colors support for more info. Also note that tmux will still display reverse video on terminals that do not support italics.

May 18, 2015 · With tmux 1.7, show-options can also show you the value of a single option (prior versions can only list all the options from the specified class): tmux show-options -gw window-status-format If you are interested in the default configuration that a “pristine” server would have, then you can examine those items like this:
