been a limitation for a long time.
There are two new options, window-size and default-size, and a new
command, resize-window. The force-width and force-height options and the
session_width and session_height formats have been removed.
The new window-size option tells tmux how to work out the size of
windows: largest means it picks the size of the largest session,
smallest the smallest session (similar to the old behaviour) and manual
means that it does not automatically resize windows. The default is
currently largest but this may change. aggressive-resize modifies the
choice of session for largest and smallest as it did before.
If a window is in a session attached to a client that is too small, only
part of the window is shown. tmux attempts to keep the cursor visible,
so the part of the window displayed is changed as the cursor moves (with
a small delay, to try and avoid excess redrawing when applications
redraw status lines or similar that are not currently visible). The
offset of the visible portion of the window is shown in status-right.
Drawing windows which are larger than the client is not as efficient as
those which fit, particularly when the cursor moves, so it is
recommended to avoid using this on slow machines or networks (set
window-size to smallest or manual).
The resize-window command can be used to resize a window manually. If it
is used, the window-size option is automatically set to manual for the
window (undo this with "setw -u window-size"). resize-window works in a
similar way to resize-pane (-U -D -L -R -x -y flags) but also has -a and
-A flags. -a sets the window to the size of the smallest client (what it
would be if window-size was smallest) and -A the largest.
For the same behaviour as force-width or force-height, use resize-window
-x or -y, and "setw -u window-size" to revert to automatic sizing..
If the global window-size option is set to manual, the default-size
option is used for new windows. If -x or -y is used with new-session,
that sets the default-size option for the new session.
The maximum size of a window is 10000x10000. But expect applications to
complain and much higher memory use if making a window excessively
big. The minimum size is the size required for the current layout
including borders.
The refresh-client command can be used to pan around a window, -U -D -L
-R moves up, down, left or right and -c returns to automatic cursor
tracking. The position is reset when the current window is changed.
CMD_FIND_* flags in the cmd_entry and call it for the command. Commands
with special requirements call it themselves and update the target for
hooks to use.
commands this pushes more of the code into options.c and ties it more
closely to the options table rather than having an unnecessary
split. Also add support for array options (will be used later). Only
(intentional) user visible change is that show-options output is now
passed through vis(3) with VIS_DQ so quotes are escaped.
pane-border-status is set to "top" or "bottom" (rather than "off"),
every pane has a permanent top or bottom border containing the text from
pane-border-format.
Based on a diff sent long ago by Jonathan Slenders, mostly rewritten and
simplified by me.
the state (client, session, winlink, pane) for it it before entering the
command. Each command provides some flags that tell the prepare step
what it is expecting.
This is a requirement for having hooks on commands (for example, if you
hook "select-window -t1:2", the hook command should to operate on window
1:2 not whatever it thinks is the current window), and should allow some
other target improvements.
The old cmd_find_* functions remain for the moment but that layer will
be dropped later.

uint64_t and converting UTF-8 to Unicode on input and the reverse on
output. (This allows key bindings, there are still omissions - the
largest being that the various prompts do not accept UTF-8.)
the main loop after events that may have changed the pane, but do so at
most once every 500 millis. If the pane changed too soon, use a timer to
ensure that a check happens later.
can't do the name check every loop, because that is too expensive, and
we can't make sure it only happens infrequently because we have no idea
when the next change will happen.
but that can only happen when we have already been woken up by a read
event, so there is no need for a timer, we can just check the changed
flag on the end of that read event (we already loop over the windows to
check for bells etc anyway).
