keys. The default key bindings become the "prefix" table and -n the
"root" table. Keys may be bound in new tables with bind -T and
switch-client -T used to specify the table in which the next key should
be looked up. Based on a diff from Keith Amling.
options for "mouse-this" and "mouse-that", mouse events may be bound as
keys and there is one option "mouse" that turns on mouse support
entirely (set -g mouse on).
See the new MOUSE SUPPORT section of the man page for description of the
key names and new flags (-t= to specify the pane or window under mouse
as a target, and send-keys -M to pass through a mouse event).
The default builtin bindings for the mouse are:
bind -n MouseDown1Pane select-pane -t=; send-keys -M
bind -n MouseDown1Status select-window -t=
bind -n MouseDrag1Pane copy-mode -M
bind -n MouseDrag1Border resize-pane -M
To get the effect of turning mode-mouse off, do:
unbind -n MouseDrag1Pane
unbind -temacs-copy MouseDrag1Pane
The old mouse options are now gone, set-option -q may be used to
suppress warnings if mixing configuration files.
directly with a helper function in the cmd_entry, include a table of
bind-key commands and pass them through the command parser and a
temporary cmd_q.
As well as being smaller, this will allow default bindings to be command
sequences which will probably be needed soon.
1. In vi mode the selection doesn't include the last character if you
moved the cursor up or left.
2. In emacs mode the selection includes the last character if you moved
the cursor to the left.

entry:
F13-F24 are S-F1 to S-F12
F25-F36 are C-F1 to C-F12
F37-F48 are C-S-F1 to C-S-F12
F49-F60 are M-F1 to M-F12
and F61-F63 are M-S-F1 to M-S-F3
This should be no difference for applications inside tmux, but means
that any key binding for F13 will need to be replaced by S-F1 and so on.
split-window, respawn-window or respawn-pane, pass them directly to
execvp() to help avoid quoting problems. One argument still goes to "sh
-c" like before. Requested by many over the years. Patch from J Raynor.
much as before - buffers are automatically named "buffer0000",
"buffer0001" and so on and ordered as a stack. Buffers can be named
explicitly when creating ("loadb -b foo" etc) or renamed ("setb -b
buffer0000 -n foo"). If buffers are named explicitly, they are not
deleted when buffer-limit is reached. Diff from J Raynor.
irritating flaws:
a) The old way of always using the top or left if the choice is
ambiguous is annoying when the layout is unbalanced.
b) The new way of remembering the last used pane is annoying if the
layout is balanced and the leftmost is obvious to the user (because
clearly if we go right from the top-left in a tiled set of four we want
to end up in top-right, even if we were last using the bottom-right).
So instead, use a combination of both: if there is only one possible
pane alongside the current pane, move to it, otherwise choose the most
recently used of the choice.
mostly useless and annoying messages. Change those commands to silence
on success like all the others. Still accept the -q command line flag
and "quiet" server option for now.

terminal supports them, also support wheel in choose mode. From Marcel

options with a single foo-style option. For example:
set -g status-fg yellow
set -g status-bg red
set -g status-attr blink
Becomes:
set -g status-style fg=yellow,bg=red,blink
The -a flag to set can be used to add to rather than replace a style. So:
set -g status-bg red
Becomes:
set -ag status-style bg=red
Currently this is fully backwards compatible (all *-{fg,bg,attr} options
remain) but the plan is to deprecate them over time.

don't bother and don't pass it from the client. If we need it in future

descriptors rather than strings.
- Each session still has a current working directory.
- New sessions still get their working directory from the client that
created them or its attached session if any.
- New windows are created by default in the session working directory.
- The -c flag to new, neww, splitw allows the working directory to be
overridden.
- The -c flag to attach let's the session working directory be changed.
- The default-path option has been removed.
To get the equivalent to default-path '.', do:
bind c neww -c $PWD
To get the equivalent of default-path '~', do:
bind c neww -c ~
This also changes the client identify protocol to be a set of messages rather
than one as well as some other changes that should make it easier to make
backwards-compatible protocol changes in future.
commands and allow a command to block execution of subsequent
commands. This allows run-shell and if-shell to be synchronous which has
been much requested.
Each client has a default command queue and commands are consumed one at
a time from it. A command may suspend execution from the queue by
returning CMD_RETURN_WAIT and then resume it by calling cmd_continue() -
for example run-shell does this from the callback that is fired after
the job is freed.
When the command queue becomes empty, command clients are automatically
exited (unless attaching). A callback is also fired - this is used for
nested commands in, for example, if-shell which can block execution of
the client's cmdq until a new cmdq becomes empty.
Also merge all the old error/info/print functions together and lose the
old curclient/cmdclient distinction - a cmdq is bound to one client (or
none if in the configuration file), this is a command client if
c->session is NULL otherwise an attached client.
add a new value to mean "leave client running but don't attach" to fix
problems with using some commands in a command sequence. Most of the

integrate with other terminal emulators and should allow some other
things to be made simpler later. More to come so doesn't do much yet and

handling them in the server, handle them in the client and pass buffers
over imsg. This is much tidier for some upcoming changes and the
performance hit isn't critical.
The tty fd is still passed to the server as before.
This bumps the tmux protocol version so new clients and old servers are
incompatible.
certain C0 sequences (linefeeds, backspaces, carriage returns) and if it
exceeds a threshold (current default 50/millisecond), start to redraw
the pane every 100 milliseconds instead of making each change as it
comes. Two configuration options - c0-change-trigger and
c0-change-interval.
This makes tmux much more responsive under very fast output (for example
yes(1) or accidentally cat'ing a large file) but may not be perfect on
all terminals and connections - feedback very welcome, particularly
where this change has a negative rather than positive effect (making it
off by default is a possibility).

this is used and the application has requested bracketed pastes, then
tmux surrounds the pasted text by \033[200~ and \033[201~. Applications
