A few useful tmux aliases:

• tl -> tmux ls - list currently running tmux sessions
• tmuxn -> tmux -f /dev/null - start tmux without configuration (useful for debugging)

tmux.conf

tmux configuration.

Here are highlights:

• remap prefix from C-b (Ctrl-b) -> M-Space (Alt/Option-Space depending on your OS)
• open new panes/windows to current path ($PWD)
• remap pane
  • horizontal: <prefix> " -> M-- (that's Alt/Option and - at the same time)
  • vertical: <prefix> % -> M-\ (meant to evoke | for vertical split but no need to hold Shift)
• switch panes w/ M-(h|j|k|l), e.g. M-h moves left a pane, M-j down a pane, M-k up a pane, and M-l right a pane
• resize panes w/ M-(H|J|K|L), e.g. M-H (M-Shift-h) resizes to the left, M-J resizes down, etc.
  • Note: by default this resizing is slightly coarse (3x larger increments than the smallest possible). To resize more granularly use <prefix> M-(h|j|k|l).
• switch to last session w/ <prefix> l (similar to hitting Alt-Tab (Windows) or Cmd-Tab (macOS) once)
• enable true color (RGB color), dimming, strikethrough and italics through terminal overrides
