.tmux

Self-contained, opinionated .tmux.conf configuration file.

The master branch targets tmux 1.9+. You may want to use the 1.7 or 1.8 branch.

Please note that upstream tmux 1.9 and 1.9a SEGFAULT when using the maximize pane feature. Some Linux distributions like Debian provide a patched tmux 1.9a. Depending on whether or not the running tmux version has a buggy swap-pane command, the maximize pane feature may be disabled.

Features

• C-a acts as secondary prefix, while keeping default C-b prefix
• visual theme inspired by powerline
• maximize any pane to a new window with <prefix>+ (tmux 1.6+, except 1.9 and 1.9a)
• mouse mode toggle with <prefix>m
• automatic usage of reattach-to-user-namespace if available
• laptop battery status

Installation

$ cd
$ rm -rf .tmux
$ git clone https://github.com/gpakosz/.tmux.git
$ ln -s .tmux/.tmux.conf

Accessing the Mac OSX clipboard from within tmux sessions

Chris Johnsen created the reattach-to-user-namespace utility that makes pbcopy and pbpaste work again within tmux.

If available, reattach-to-user-namespace will be automatically used by this tmux configuration. You just have to install it for instance with brew:

$ brew install reattach-to-user-namespace
