tmux as a screen replacement

2012-01-19T13:22:00+01:00

Since I could not find a way to get screen working with split screens and different windows I switched to tmux.

So far, after setting up the same look and feel as my screen configuration, I quite like it (the tmux configuration is actually human read- and editable).

Below is my current .tmux.conf file

# we like colours set -g default-terminal "screen-256color" # change activator to ctrl+z unbind C-b set-option -g prefix C-z bind C-z send-prefix # history set -g history-limit 1000 # Allows for faster key repetition set -s escape-time 0 # Set window notifications setw -g monitor-activity on set -g visual-activity on # aggressive window resizing setw -g aggressive-resize on # start window numbering at 1 set -g base-index 1 # default statusbar colors set -g status-fg white set -g status-bg default # pane border set -g pane-active-border-bg default set -g pane-active-border-fg blue # command prompt set -g message-bg blue set -g message-fg white set -g message-attr bright # default window title colors set-window-option -g window-status-fg white set-window-option -g window-status-bg default set-window-option -g window-status-attr bright set-window-option -g window-status-alert-attr none set-window-option -g window-status-alert-bg default set-window-option -g window-status-alert-fg blue # active window title colors set-window-option -g window-status-current-fg white set-window-option -g window-status-current-bg red #set-window-option -g window-status-current-attr bright # change status window look set-window-option -g window-status-format '#I: #W' set-window-option -g window-status-current-format '#I: #W' # statusline set -g status-utf8 on set -g status-left-length 30 set -g status-right-length 60 set -g status-justify centre set -g status-left '#[fg=green,bright][ #h ][' set -g status-right '#[fg=green,bright][#[fg=blue,bright]#(uptime |cut -d ":" -f 4-) #[fg=green,bright]][ #[fg=blue,bright]%d.%m.%Y %I:%M #[fg=green,bright]]' # scrollback buffer n lines set -g history-limit 5000 # More straight forward key bindings for splitting unbind % bind H split-window -h unbind '"' bind V split-window -v bind k select-pane -U bind j select-pane -D bind h select-pane -L unbind l bind l select-pane -R bind m last-window bind-key C-r source ~/.tmux.conf unbind-key C-Up unbind-key C-Down bind-key C-h swap-pane -D unbind-key C-left unbind-key C-Right bind-key C-l swap-pane -U # Clock set-window-option -g clock-mode-style 24 # show pane number longer activator + q set -g display-panes-time 1500

Need more panes per window?
