exists. A new message-limit session option sets the maximum number of entries
and a command, show-messages, shows the log (bound to ~ by default).
This (and prompt history) might be better as a single global log but until
there are global options it is easier for them to be per client.
client lookup to pick the most recently used rather than the most recently
created - this is much more useful when used interactively and (because the
activity time is set at creation) should have no effect on source-file.
Based on a problem reported by Jan Johansson.
meaningful names.
Also, remove the code to try and update the session activity time for the
command client when a command message is received as is pointless because it
des not have a session.
trying partial matches.
Avoids problems where two ambiguous matches are present before an exact match
(eg foo1, foo2, foo would give an error on trying -tfoo), reported by Natacha

example:
pipe-pane 'cat >~/out'
No arguments stops outputing and closes the pipe; the -o flag toggles a pipe
and on and off (useful for key bindings).

current client, in a similar manner to how sessions already work: if the
current session can be established and has only one client, use that; otherwise
use the most recently created client.
command specified by a new option "lock-command" (by default "lock -np") in
each client.
This means each terminal has to be unlocked individually but simplifies the
code and allows the system password to be used to unlock.
Note that the set-password command is gone, so it will need to be removed from
configuration files, and the -U command line flag has been removed.
This is the third protocol version change so again it is best to stop the tmux
server before upgrading.
template. After a choice is made, %% (or %1) in the template is replaced by the
name of the session, window or client suitable for -t and the result executed
as a command. So, for example, "choose-window "killw -t '%%'"" will kill the
selected window.
The defaults if no template is given are (as now) select-window for
choose-window, switch-client for choose-session, and detach-client for
choose-client (now bound to D).
within tmux.
There is a global environment, copied from the external environment when the
server is started and each sesssion has an (initially empty) session
environment which overrides it.
New commands set-environment and show-environment manipulate or display the
environments.
A new session option, update-environment, is a space-separated list of
variables which are updated from the external environment into the session
environment every time a new session is created - the default is DISPLAY.
using -p index, a target pane is now addressed with the normal -t window form
but suffixed with a period and a pane index, for example :0.2 or
mysess:mywin.1. An unadorned number such as -t 1 is tried as a pane index in
the current window, if that fails the same rules are followed as for a target
window and the current pane in that window used.
As a side-effect this now means that swap-pane can swap panes between different
windows.
Note that this changes the syntax of the break-pane, clear-history, kill-pane,
resize-pane, select-pane and swap-pane commands.
command line. The name of all slave ptys in the server is known, so if the
client was run on a tty, look for any sessions containing that tty and use the
most recently created.
This is more reliable than looking at $TMUX if windows have been moved or
linked between sessions.
This is the first of two changes to make the protocol more resilient and less
sensitive to other changes in the code, particularly with commands. The client
now packs argv into a buffer and sends it to the server for parsing, rather
than doing it itself and sending the parsed command data.
As a side-effect this also removes a lot of now-unused command marshalling
code.
Mixing a server without this change and a client with or vice versa will cause
tmux to hang or crash, please ensure that tmux is entirely killed before
upgrading.
a string with no colon as a target window is first looked up as a window then
as a session, noted by Iain Morgan.
Also attempt to clarify the description of the target specification in the man
page.
status line (bound to "i" and displays the current window and time by
default). The same substitutions are applied as for status-left/right.
- Add support for including the window index (#I), pane index (#P) and window
name (#W) in the message, and status-left or status-right.
- Bump protocol version.
From Tiago Cunha, thanks!
- move the code back into cmd.c and merge with the existing functions where
possible;
- accept "-tttyp0" as well as "-t/dev/ttyp0" for clients;
- when looking up session names, try an exact match first, and if that fails
look for it as an fnmatch pattern and then as the start of a name - if more
that one session matches an error is given; so if there is one session called
"mysession", -tmysession, -tmysess, -tmysess* are equivalent but if there
is also "mysession2", the last two are errors;
- similarly for windows, if the argument is not a valid index or exact window
name match, try it against the window names as an fnmatch pattern and a
prefix.
argument if the shell command in the first succeeds, for example:
if "[ -e ~/.tmux.conf.alt ]" "source .tmux.conf.alt"
Written by Tiago Cunha, many thanks.
"abc-1", "abc-2", "abc-3" exist and "abc-3" has the alias "abc", "tmux abc"
should execute abc-3, not complain about the command being ambiguous.
Not a problem at the moment but will be soon.
