historical (incorrect) behaviour for SGR 3 and send smso
(standout). Previously, we would send sitm (italics) if the terminal
outside had it and smso otherwise. This was acceptably until recently
because xterm's terminfo entry lacked sitm, so most users got smso.
People who want italics should set default-terminal to the forthcoming
"tmux" entry (and be prepared to deal with it being missing on older
hosts).
As a side-effect this changes default-terminal to be a server rather
than a session option.

consistent but with much less duplication, but keeping the same internal
API. Also adds more readable aliases for some of the special tokens used
in targets (eg "{start}" instead of "^"). Some behaviours may have
changed, for example prefix matches now happen before fnmatch.
keys. The default key bindings become the "prefix" table and -n the
"root" table. Keys may be bound in new tables with bind -T and
switch-client -T used to specify the table in which the next key should
be looked up. Based on a diff from Keith Amling.
options for "mouse-this" and "mouse-that", mouse events may be bound as
keys and there is one option "mouse" that turns on mouse support
entirely (set -g mouse on).
See the new MOUSE SUPPORT section of the man page for description of the
key names and new flags (-t= to specify the pane or window under mouse
as a target, and send-keys -M to pass through a mouse event).
The default builtin bindings for the mouse are:
bind -n MouseDown1Pane select-pane -t=; send-keys -M
bind -n MouseDown1Status select-window -t=
bind -n MouseDrag1Pane copy-mode -M
bind -n MouseDrag1Border resize-pane -M
To get the effect of turning mode-mouse off, do:
unbind -n MouseDrag1Pane
unbind -temacs-copy MouseDrag1Pane
The old mouse options are now gone, set-option -q may be used to
suppress warnings if mixing configuration files.
split-window, respawn-window or respawn-pane, pass them directly to
execvp() to help avoid quoting problems. One argument still goes to "sh
-c" like before. Requested by many over the years. Patch from J Raynor.
much as before - buffers are automatically named "buffer0000",
"buffer0001" and so on and ordered as a stack. Buffers can be named
explicitly when creating ("loadb -b foo" etc) or renamed ("setb -b
buffer0000 -n foo"). If buffers are named explicitly, they are not
deleted when buffer-limit is reached. Diff from J Raynor.
mostly useless and annoying messages. Change those commands to silence
on success like all the others. Still accept the -q command line flag
and "quiet" server option for now.
options with a single foo-style option. For example:
set -g status-fg yellow
set -g status-bg red
set -g status-attr blink
Becomes:
set -g status-style fg=yellow,bg=red,blink
The -a flag to set can be used to add to rather than replace a style. So:
set -g status-bg red
Becomes:
set -ag status-style bg=red
Currently this is fully backwards compatible (all *-{fg,bg,attr} options
remain) but the plan is to deprecate them over time.
