default and the mark and cursor position are swapped with 'jump-to-mark'
(bound to M-x). The line containing the mark is shown in
copy-mode-mark-style with the horizontal position in reverse.

creating a new state for each group of commands, require the caller to
create one and use it for all the commands in the list. This means the
current target works even with list with multiple groups (which can
happen if they are defined with newlines).
freeze updates (which does not play nicely with some applications, a
longstanding problem) and will allow some other changes later. From

- Add double and triple click bindings to copy a word or line outside
copy mode. The text is selected for a short period to show what has
been copied. This is in line with the existing mouse selection where
the text is copied and the selection is cleared when the mouse button
is released.
- Change the existing double and triple click bindings in copy mode to
behave in the same way.
- Add a button 2 binding to paste the top buffer.
use this to add descriptions to the default key bindings. A new -N flag
to list-keys shows key bindings with notes rather than the default
bind-key command used to create them. Change the default ? binding to
use this to show a readable summary of keys.
Also extend command-prompt to return the name of the key pressed and add
a default binding (/) to show the note for the next key pressed

file, making it much tidier to define commands that contain other tmux
or shell commands (like if-shell). Also tweak bind-key to expect a
string if it is only given one argument, so {} can be used with it as
well. From Avi Halachmi.
parser using yacc(1). This is a major change but is clearer and simpler
and allows some edge cases to be made more consistent, as well as
tidying up how aliases are handled. It will also allow some further
improvements later.
Entirely the same parser is now used for parsing the configuration file
and for string commands. This means that constructs previously only
available in .tmux.conf, such as %if, can now be used in string commands
(for example, those given to if-shell - not commands invoked from the
shell, they are still parsed by the shell itself).
The only syntax change I am aware of is that #{} outside quotes or a
comment is now considered a format and not a comment, so #{ is now a
syntax error (notably, if it is at the start of a line).
This also adds two new sections to the man page documenting the syntax
and outlining how parsing and command execution works.
Thanks to everyone who sent me test configs (they still all parse
without errors - but this doesn't mean they still work as intended!).
Thanks to Avi Halachmi for testing and man page improvements, also to
jmc@ for reviewing the man page changes.
