Two new options:
- server option "exit-unattached" makes the server exit when no clients
are attached, even if sessions are present;
- session option "destroy-unattached" destroys a session once no clients
are attached to it.
These are useful for preventing tmux remaining in the background where
it is undesirable and when using tmux as a login shell to keep a limit
on new sessions.

Use UTF-8 line drawing characters on UTF-8 terminals. Fixes some stupid
terminals (I'm looking at you, putty) which disable the vt100 ACS mode
switching sequences in UTF-8 mode.
Also on terminals without ACS at all, use ASCII equivalents where
obvious.

Add -n and -p flags to switch-client to move to the next and previous
session (yes, it doesn't match window/pane, but so what, nor does
switch-client).
Based on a diff long ago from "edsouza".
Do not call event_del() for signals after fork(), just use sigaction()
directly instead - calling libevent functions after fork() w/o
event_reinit() is a bad idea, even if in this case it was harmless.
Change the way backoff works. Instead of stopping reading from the pty
when the client tty backs up too much, just stop updating the tty and
only update the internal screen. Then when the tty recovers, force a
redraw.
This prevents a dodgy client from causing other clients to go into
backoff while still allowing tmux to be responsive (locally) when seeing
lots of output.

When changing so that the client passes its stdout and stderr as well as
stdin up to the server, I forgot one essential point - the tmux server
could now be both the producer and consumer. This happens when tmux is
run inside tmux, as well as when piping tmux commands together.
So, using stdio(3) was a bad idea - if sufficient data was written, this
could block in write(2). When that happened and the server was both
producer and consumer, it deadlocks.
Change to use libevent bufferevents for the client stdin, stdout and
stderr instead. This is trivial enough for output but requires a
callback mechanism to trigger when stdin is finished.
This relies on the underlying polling mechanism for libevent to work
with whatever devices to which the user could redirect stdin, stdout or
stderr, hence the change to use poll(2) over kqueue(2) for tmux.

Return the command client return code with MSG_EXIT now that MSG_ERROR and
MSG_PRINT are unused.
New clients should be compatible with old tmux servers but vice versa may print
an error.
Custom layouts. list-windows command displays the layout as a string (such as
"bb62,159x48,0,0{79x48,0,0,79x48,80,0}") and it can be applied to another
window (with the same number of panes or fewer) using select-layout.
Send all three of stdin, stdout, stderr from the client to the server, so that
commands can directly make use of them. This means that load-buffer and
save-buffer can have "-" as the file to read from stdin or write to stdout.
This is a protocol version bump so the tmux server will need to be restarted
after upgrade (or an older client used).
Store the current working directory in the session, change the default-path
option to default to empty and make that mean that the stored session CWD is
used.
Setting the cmdlist pointer in the bind-key to NULL to prevent it being freed
after the command is executing is bogus because it may still be needed if the
same command is going to be executed again (for example if you "bind-key a
bind-key b ..."). Making a copy is hard, so instead add a reference count to
the cmd_list.
While here, also print bind-key -n and the rest of the flags properly.
Fixes problem reported by mcbride@.

Fix problems with window sizing seen by Raghavendra D Prabhu when
starting tmux from .xinitrc.
One of the very few things the server relies on the client for now is to
pass through a message on SIGWINCH, but there is a condition where
potentially a SIGWINCH may be lost during the transition from unattached
(main.c) to attached (client.c). So trigger a size change immediately
after the client installs its SIGWINCH handler.
Also, when the terminal is resized, reset the scroll region and cursor
position. Previously, we were clearing our saved idea of these, but in
fact some terminals do not reset them on resize, so this caused problems
during redraw.
While here make a resize to the same size not cause a redraw and rename
the tmux.out output log file to include the tmux PID.
When the mode-mouse option is on, support dragging to make a selection
in copy mode.
Also support the scroll wheel, although xterm strangely does not ignore
it in application mouse mode, causing redraw artifacts when scrolling up
(other terminals appear to be better behaved).

This allows send-key to work properly for manipulating copy mode from
outside tmux.
From Micah Cowan.
Identical behaviour to select-prompt can now be obtained with
command-prompt, so remove select-prompt and change ' to be bound to
command-prompt -p index "select-window -t :%%".
Make signal handler setup/teardown two common functions instead of six,
and reset SIGCHLD after fork to fix problems with some shells. From
Romain Francoise.
Permit keys in copy mode to be prefixed by a repeat count, entered with
[1-9] in vi mode, or M-[1-9] in emacs mode.
From Micah Cowan, tweaked a little by me.
copy mode uses the real screen as backing and if it is updated while copying,
strange things can happen. So, freeze reading from the pty while in copy mode.
Instead of bailing out on the first configuration file error, carry on,
collecting all the errors, then start with the active window in more mode
displaying them.
vi-style B, W and E keys in copy mode to navigate between words treating only
spaces as word separators. Also add . to the list of word separators for
standard word navigation.
From Micah Cowan, tweaked slightly by me.
Add "server options" which are server-wide and not bound to a session or
window. Set and displayed with "set -s" and "show -s".
Currently the only option is "quiet" (like command-line -q, allowing it to be
set from .tmux.conf), but others will come along.

Massive spaces->tabs and trailing whitespace cleanup, hopefully for the last
time now I've configured emacs to make them displayed in really annoying
colours...
Eliminate duplicate code and ease the passage for server-wide options by adding
a -w flag to set-option and show-options and making setw and showw aliases to
set -w and show -w.
Note: setw and showw are still there, but now aliases for set -w and show -w.

Change status line drawing to create the window list in a separate screen and
then copy it into the status line screen. This allows UTF-8 in window names and
fixes some problems with #[] in window-status-format.
Two new options, window-status-format and window-status-current-format, which
allow the format of each window in the status line window list to be controlled
using similar # sequences as status-left/right.
This diff also moves part of the way towards UTF-8 support in window names but
it isn't quite there yet.
Cleanup by moving various (mostly horrible) little bits handling UTF-8 grid
data into functions in a new file, grid-utf8.c, and use sizeof intead of
UTF8_DATA.
Also nuke trailing whitespace from tmux.1, reminded by jmc.
Add a per-client log of status line messages displayed while that client
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.

Switch the tty key tree over to an (unbalanced) ternary tree which allows
partial matches to be done (they wait for further data or a timer to expire,
like a naked escape).
Mouse and xterm-style keys still expect to be atomic.
Switch tty key input over to happen on a read event. This is a bit more
complicated because of escape input, but in that case instead of processing a
key immediately, schedule a timer and reprocess the bufer when it expires.
This currently assumes that keys will be atomic (ie that if eg F1 is pressed
the entire sequence is present in the buffer). This is usually but not always
true, a change in the tree format so it can differentiate potential (partial)
key sequences will happens soon and will allow this to be fixed.
Convert the window pane (pty master side) fd over to use a bufferevent.
The evbuffer API is very similar to the existing tmux buffer API so this was
remarkably painless. Not many possible ways to do it, I suppose.
Initial changes to move tmux to libevent.
This moves the client-side loops are pretty much fully over to event-based only
(tmux.c and client.c) but server-side (server.c and friends) treats libevent as
a sort of clever poll, waking up after every event to run various things.
Moving the server stuff over to bufferevents and timers and so on will come
later.

Add an activity time for clients, like for sessions, and change session and
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.
If it isn't available explicitly, work out the current client in a similar way
to the current session - build a list of the possibilities then pick the
newest.
Change session and client activity and creation time members to have more
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.
Double the escape timer (the time after a \033 is received before tmux gives up
waiting to see if it is part of a key sequence and passes it through) to 500
ms, the previous setting was too fast. Suggested by naddy.

Add a flag for jobs that shouldn't be freed after they've died and use it for
status jobs, then only kill those jobs when status-left, status-right or

Fixes problems with changing options from inside #().
If any client currently displaying a window pane has more than 1 KB of output
buffered, don't accept any further data from the process running in the pane.
This makes tmux much more responsive when flooded with output, although other
buffers can still have an impact when running remotely.
Prompted by a query from Ranganathan Sankaralingam.

Rewrite xterm-keys code (both input and output) so that works (doesn't always
output the same modifiers, accepts all the possible input keys) and is more
understandable.
Support the (mostly new) function key+modifier caps (kIC-kIC7). Most of these
will be caught (soon) by the xterm keys code in xterm itself but some other

Remove the -d flag to tmux and just use op/AX to detect default colours.
Irritatingly, although op can be used to tell if a terminal supports default
colours, it can't be used to set them because in some terminfo descriptions it
resets attributes as a side-effect (acts as sgr0) and in others it doesn't, so
it is not possible to determine reliably what the terminal state will be
afterwards. So if AX is missing and op is present, tmux just sends sgr0.
Anyone using -d for a terminal who finds they actually needed it can replace it
using terminal-overrides, but please let me know as it is probably an omission
from terminfo.

Split the server code handling clients, jobs and windows off into separate
files from server.c (merging server-msg.c into the client file) and rather than
iterating over each set after poll(), allow a callback to be specified when the
fd is added and just walk once over the returned pollfds calling each callback
where needed.
More to come, getting this in so it is tested.
Try to reduce the UTF-8 mess.
Get rid of passing around u_char[4]s and define a struct utf8_data which has
character data, size (sequence length) and width. Move UTF-8 character
collection into two functions utf8_open/utf8_append in utf8.c which fill in
this struct and use these functions from input.c and the various functions in
screen-write.c.
Space for rather more data than is necessary for one UTF-8 sequence is in the
utf8_data struct because screen_write_copy is still nasty and needs to reinject
the character (after combining) into screen_write_cell.
UTF-8 combined character fixes.
Thai can have treble combinations (1 x width=1 then 2 x width=0) so bump the
UTF-8 cell data size to 9 and alter the code to allow this.
Also break off the combining code into a separate function, handle any further
combining beyond the buffer size by replacing the character with _s, and when
redrawing the UTF-8 character don't assume the first part has just been
printed, redraw the entire line.
Instead of having a complicated check to see if the cursor is in the last
position to avoid an explicit wrap, actually move it there.

Add mode keys to move the cursor to the top, middle and bottom of the screen.
H/M/L in vi mode and M-R/M-r in emacs (bottom of screen not bound in emacs).
When drawing lines that have wrapped naturally, don't force a newline but
permit them to wrap naturally again. This allows terminals that use this to
guess where lines start and end for eg mouse selecting (like xterm) to work
correctly.
This was another long-standing issue raised by several people over the last
while.
Thanks to martynas@ for much testing. This was not trivial to get right so
bringing it in for wider testing and adn to fix any further glitches in-tree.
When backspace is received at the beginning of a line and the previous line was
wrapped, move the cursor back up to the end of the previous line.
Another one of the forgotten persons requested this quite a while ago (I need
to start noting names on todo items...) when it was quite hard to
implement. Now it is easy and I don't see it can do any harm, so hey presto...
Use relative cursor movement instead of absolute when possible and when
supported by the terminal to reduce the size of the output data (generally
about 10-20%).

Add a pipe-pane command to allow a pane to be piped to a shell command, for
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).
Suggested by espie@.
Clean up by introducing a wrapper struct for mouse clicks rather than passing
three u_chars around.
As a side-effect this fixes incorrectly rejecting high cursor positions
(because it was comparing them as signed char), reported by Tom Doherty.
Rather than running status-left, status-right and window title #() with popen
immediately every redraw, queue them up and run them in the background,
starting each once every status-interval. The actual status line uses the
output from the last run.
This brings several advantages:
- tmux itself may be called from inside #() without causing the server to hang;
- likewise, sleep or similar doesn't cause the server to block;
- commands aren't run excessively often when redrawing;
- commands shared by status-left and status-right, or used multiple times, will
only be run once.
run-shell and if-shell still use system()/popen() but will be changed over to
use this too later.
New option, mouse-select-pane. If on, the mouse may be used to select the
current pane.
Suggested by sthen@ and also by someone else ages ago who I have forgotten.
Add "grouped sessions" which have independent name, options, current window and
so on but where the linked windows are synchronized (ie creating, killing
windows and so on are mirrored between the sessions). A grouped session may be
created by passing -t to new-session.
Had this around for a while, tested by a couple of people.
Support for individual session idle time locking. May be enabled by turning off
the lock-server option (it is on by default). When this is off, each session
locks when it has been idle for the lock-after-time setting. When on, the
entire server locks when ALL sessions have been idle for their individual
lock-after-time settings.
This replaces one global-only option (lock-after-time) with another
(lock-server), but the default behaviour is usually preferable so there don't
seem to be many alternatives.
Diff/idea largely from Thomas Adam, tweaked by me.

This includes another protocol version increase (the last for now) so again
restart the tmux server before upgrading.
Remove the internal tmux locking and instead detach each client and run the
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.
Trim some code by moving the ioctl(TIOCGWINSZ) after SIGWINCH from the client
into the server.
This is another (the second of four) protocol version changes coming this
morning, so again the server should be killed before upgrading.
Don't attempt to open() the tty path, rely on the client sending its stdin fd
with imsg and fatal if it doesn't, then set the FD_CLOEXEC flag in tty_init
instead of tty_open to prevent them leaking into child processes if any are
created between the two calls.

When using tmux as a login shell, there is currently no way to specify a shell
to be used as a login shell inside tmux, so add a default-shell session option.
This sets the shell invoked as a login shell when the default-command option is

The default option value is whichever of $SHELL, getpwuid(getuid())'s pw_shell
or /bin/sh is valid first.
Based on a diff from martynas@, changed by me to be a session option rather
than a window option.

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).
When using source-file, run the commands in the context of the source-file
command rather than with no context. This makes things like attach work from a
file.
Extend command-prompt with a -p option which is a comma-separated list of one
or more prompts to present in order.
The responses to the prompt are replaced in the template string: %% are
replaced in order, so the first prompt replaces the first %%, the second
replaces the second, and so on. In addition, %1 up to %9 are replaced with the
responses to the first the ninth prompts
The default template is "%1" so the response to the first prompt is processed
as a command.
Note that this changes the behaviour for %% so if there is only one prompt,
only the first %% will be replaced. Templates such as "neww -n '%%' 'ssh %%'"
should be changed to "neww -n '%1' 'ssh %1'".
From Tiago Cunha.
Instead of just checking for an empty buffer, which may not be the case if
there is unconsumed data, save the previous size and use it instead. This means
that activity monitoring should work in this (unlikely) event.
Also remove a debugging statement that no longer seems necessary.
Add (naive) searching and goto line in copy mode. Searching is C-r and C-s with
emacs keys, / and ? with vi; n repeats the search again with either key
set. All searching wraps the top/bottom. Goto line is g for both emacs and vi.
The search prompts don't have full line editing, just simple append and delete
characters.
Also sort the mode keys list in tmux.1.

vi(1)-style half page scroll in copy and scroll modes. Move the vi full page
scroll key to C-b instead of C-u and use C-u/C-d for half page scrolling with
vi keys. In emacs mode, half page scrolling is bound to M-Up and M-Down.
Suggested by merdely (about a year ago :-)).
When creating a new session from the command-line where there is an external
terminal, copy the termios(4) special characters and use them for new windows
created in the new session. Suggested by Theo.
A tty context must not be modified as it may be reused to update multiple
clients, so make it const.
Also fix an actual modification which caused a hang when a session was
connected to multiple terminals at least one of which was missing ich/ich1.
Have the client pass its stdin fd to the server when identifying itself and
have the server use that rather than reopening the tty. If the fd isn't given,
use the old behaviour (so no need for a version change).
This allows tmux to be used as the shell, so also change so that when working
out the command to execute if default-command is empty (the default), tmux will
try not execute itself.
Switch tmux to use imsg. This is the last major change to make the
client-server protocol more resilient and make the protocol versioning work
properly. In future, the only things requiring a protocol version bump will be
changes in the message structs, and (when both client and server have this
change) mixing different versions should nicely report an error message.
As a side effect this also makes the code tidier, fixes a problem with the way
errors reported during server startup were handled, and supports fd passing
(which will be used in future).
Looked over by eric@, thanks.
Please note that mixing a client with this change with an older server or vice
versa may cause tmux to crash or hang - tmux should be completely exited before
upgrading.

Add flags for 1+2 and 2 arguments to the generic target code, use it for
cmd-set-environment/option/window-option and remove the generic options
parsing.
Infrastructure and commands to manage the environment for processes started
within tmux.
There is a global environment, copied from the external environment when the
server is started and each session 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.
Add a flags member to the grid_line struct and use it to differentiate lines
wrapped at the screen edge from those terminated by a newline. Then use this
when copying to combine wrapped lines together into one.
Change the way the grid is stored, previously it was:
- a two-dimensional array of cells;
- a two-dimensional array of utf8 data;
- an array of line lengths.
Now it is a single array of a new struct grid_line each of which represents a
line and contains the length and an array of cells and an array of utf8 data.
This will make it easier to add additional per-line members, such as flags.
If there is an error in the configuration file, don't just exit(1) as this can
cause the client to hang. Instead, send the error message, then mark the client
as bad and start a normal shutdown so the server exits once the error is
written.
This also allows some code duplicating daemon(3) to be trimmed and logging to
begin earlier.
Prompted by Theo noticing the behaviour on error wasn't documented.
Using the alternative screen (smcup/rmcup) should also preserve the current
colours and attributes. Found thanks to a report from Taylor Venable.
While here also nuke a couple of extra blank lines.
Add a terminal-overrides session option allowing individual terminfo(5) entries
to be overridden. The 88col/256col checks are now moved into the default
setting and out of the code.
Also remove a couple of old workarounds for xterm and rxvt which are no longer
necessary (tmux can emulate them if missing).

There aren't many client message types or code to handle them so get rid of
the lookup table and use a switch, merge the tiny handler functions into it,
and move the whole lot to client.c.
Also change client_msg_dispatch to consume as many messages as possible and
move the call to it to the right place so it checks for signals afterwards.
Prompted by suggestions from eric@.
Merge pane number into the target specification for pane commands. Instead of
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.

Next step towards customisable mode keys: build each default table of keys
into a named tree on start and use that for lookups. Also add command to string
translation tables and modify list-keys to show the mode key bindings (new
-t argument).
Change mode key bindings from big switches into a set of tables. Rather than
lumping them all together, split editing keys from those used in choice/more
mode and those for copy/scroll mode.
Tidier and clearer, and the first step towards customisable mode keys.
Detect backspace by looking at termios VERASE and translate it into \177
(which matches screen's behaviour if not its termcap/terminfo entry). The
terminfo kbs cap is often wrong or missing so it can't be used, and just
assuming \177 may be wrong.
Make all messages sent between the client and server fixed size.
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.

Permit commands to be bound to key presses without the prefix key first. The
new -n flag to bind-key and unbind-key sets or removes these bindings, and
list-key shows them in []s.
Both of cmdclient and curclient CAN be NULL - if the command is executed from
the configuration file. In this case, attach-session can't do much, and
new-session should just assume -d.
enum tty_cmd is only used as an index into the array of command function
pointers, so remove it and use the function pointers directly to represent
themselves.
__progname is not const, pointed out by deraadt.
And, as a consequence change its declaration for operating systems which
don't provide __progname as well.
Each window now has a tree of layout cells associated with it. In this tree,
each node is either a horizontal or vertical cell containing a list of other
cells running from left-to-right or top-to-bottom, or a leaf cell which is
associated with a pane.
The major functional changes are:
- panes may now be split arbitrarily both horizontally (splitw -h, C-b %) and
vertically (splitw -v, C-b ");
- panes may be resized both horizontally and vertically (resizep -L/-R/-U/-D,
bound to C-b left/right/up/down and C-b M-left/right/up/down);
- layouts are now applied and then may be modified by resizing or splitting
panes, rather than being fixed and reapplied when the window is resized or
panes are added;
- manual-vertical layout is no longer necessary, and active-only layout is gone
(but may return in future);
- the main-pane layouts now reduce the size of the main pane to fit all panes
if possible.
Thanks to all who tested.
If these are enabled (and the monitor-activity, bell-action and monitor-content
options are configurated appropriately), when activity, a bell, or content is
detected, a message is shown.
