My tmux config file

30 octobre 2013 | Catégories: linux | View Comments

I am often using tmux in the terminal for its habilities to vertically and horizontally split the terminal window sequentially. Below are the configurations that I used given to me by Alexandre Blondin-Massé during a SageFridays at LaCIM in March 2011.

# This File is : ~/.tmux.conf

# use "|" and "-" to do vertical/horizontal splits
# (press CTRL B and then - or |, CTRL D to close it)
unbind %
bind | split-window -h
bind - split-window -v

# use the vim motion keys to move between panes
# (press CTRL B and then h,j,k,l for the move)
bind h select-pane -L
bind j select-pane -D
bind k select-pane -U
bind l select-pane -R

# use vim motion keys while in copy mode
# To copy, press CTRL B and then [, move, space, move, enter.
# To paste, press CTRL B and then ]
setw -g mode-keys vi

I am not using all the capacities I should of tmux. Maybe one day I will try to use this sessions and windows workflow.
