CHANGES FROM 3.2 TO 3.3
|
|
|
|
* More accurate vi(1) word navigation in copy mode and on the status line. This
|
|
changes the meaning of the word-separators option - setting it to the empty
|
|
string is equivalent to the previous behavior.
|
|
|
|
CHANGES FROM 3.1c TO 3.2
|
|
|
|
* Add a flag to disable keys to close a message.
|
|
|
|
* Permit shortcut keys in buffer, client, tree modes to be configured with a
|
|
format (-K flag to choose-buffer, choose-client, choose-tree).
|
|
|
|
* Add a current_file format for the config file being parsed.
|
|
|
|
* When display-message used in config file, show the message after the config
|
|
file finishes.
|
|
|
|
* Add client-detached notification in control mode.
|
|
|
|
* Improve performance of format evaluation.
|
|
|
|
* Make jump command support UTF-8 in copy mode.
|
|
|
|
* Support X11 colour names and other colour formats for OSC 10 and 11.
|
|
|
|
* Add "pipe" variants of "copy-pipe" commands which do not copy.
|
|
|
|
* Include "focused" in client flags.
|
|
|
|
* Send Unicode directional isolate characters around horizontal pane borders if
|
|
the terminal supports UTF-8 and an extension terminfo(5) capability "Bidi" is
|
|
present.
|
|
|
|
* Add a -S flag to new-window to make it select the existing window if one
|
|
with the given name already exists rather than failing with an error.
|
|
|
|
* Add a format modifier to check if a window or session name exists (N/w or
|
|
N/s).
|
|
|
|
* Add compat clock_gettime for older macOS.
|
|
|
|
* Add a no-detached choice to detach-on-destroy which detaches only if there
|
|
are no other detached sessions to switch to.
|
|
|
|
* Add rectangle-on and rectangle-off copy mode commands.
|
|
|
|
* Change so that window_flags escapes # automatically. A new format
|
|
window_raw_flags contains the old unescaped version.
|
|
|
|
* Add -N flag to never start server even if command would normally do so.
|
|
|
|
* With incremental search, start empty and only repeat the previous search if
|
|
the user tries to search again with an empty prompt.
|
|
|
|
* Add a value for remain-on-exit that only keeps the pane if the program
|
|
failed.
|
|
|
|
* Add a -C flag to run-shell to use a tmux command rather than a shell command.
|
|
|
|
* Do not list user options with show-hooks.
|
|
|
|
* Remove current match indicator in copy mode which can't work anymore since we
|
|
only search the visible region.
|
|
|
|
* Make synchronize-panes a pane option and add -U flag to set-option to unset
|
|
an option on all panes.
|
|
|
|
* Make replacement of ##s consistent when drawing formats, whether followed by
|
|
[ or not. Add a flag (e) to the q: format modifier to double up #s.
|
|
|
|
* Add -N flag to display-panes to ignore keys.
|
|
|
|
* Change how escaping is processed for formats so that ## and # can be used in
|
|
styles.
|
|
|
|
* Add a 'w' format modifier for string width.
|
|
|
|
* Add support for Haiku.
|
|
|
|
* Expand menu and popup -x and -y as formats.
|
|
|
|
* Add numeric comparisons for formats.
|
|
|
|
* Fire focus events even when the pane is in a mode.
|
|
|
|
* Add -O flag to display-menu to not automatically close when all mouse buttons
|
|
are released.
|
|
|
|
* Allow fnmatch(3) wildcards in update-environment.
|
|
|
|
* Disable nested job expansion so that the result of #() is not expanded again.
|
|
|
|
* Use the setal capability as well as (tmux's) Setulc.
|
|
|
|
* Add -q flag to unbind-key to hide errors.
|
|
|
|
* Allow -N without a command to change or add a note to an existing key.
|
|
|
|
* Add a -w flag to set- and load-buffer to send to clipboard using OSC 52.
|
|
|
|
* Add -F to set-environment and source-file.
|
|
|
|
* Allow colour to be spelt as color in various places.
|
|
|
|
* Add n: modifier to get length of a format.
|
|
|
|
* Respond to OSC colour requests if a colour is available.
|
|
|
|
* Add a -d option to display-message to set delay.
|
|
|
|
* Add a way for control mode clients to subscribe to a format and be notified
|
|
of changes rather than having to poll.
|
|
|
|
* Add some formats for search in copy mode (search_present, search_match).
|
|
|
|
* Do not wait on shutdown for commands started with run -b.
|
|
|
|
* Add -b flags to insert a window before (like the existing -a for after) to
|
|
break-pane, move-window, new-window.
|
|
|
|
* Make paste -p the default for ].
|
|
|
|
* Add support for pausing a pane when the output buffered for a control mode
|
|
client gets too far behind. The pause-after flag with a time is set on the
|
|
pane with refresh-client -f and a paused pane may be resumed with
|
|
refresh-client -A.
|
|
|
|
* Allow strings in configuration files to span multiple lines - newlines and
|
|
any leading whitespace are removed, as well as any following comments that
|
|
couldn't be part of a format. This allows long formats or other strings to be
|
|
annotated and indented.
|
|
|
|
* Instead of using a custom parse function to process {} in configuration
|
|
files, treat as a set of statements the same as outside {} and convert back
|
|
to a string as the last step. This means the rules are consistent inside and
|
|
outside {}, %if and friends work at the right time, and the final result
|
|
isn't littered with unnecessary newlines.
|
|
|
|
* Add support for extended keys - both xterm(1)'s CSI 27 ~ sequence and the
|
|
libtickit CSI u sequence are accepted; only the latter is output. tmux will
|
|
only attempt to use these if the extended-keys option is on and it can detect
|
|
that the terminal outside supports them (or is told it does with the
|
|
"extkeys" terminal feature).
|
|
|
|
* Add an option to set the pane border lines style from a choice of single
|
|
lines (ACS or UTF-8), double or heavy (UTF-8), simple (plain ASCII) or number
|
|
(the pane numbers). Lines that won't work on a non-UTF-8 terminal are
|
|
translated back into ACS when they are output.
|
|
|
|
* Make focus events update the latest client (like a key press).
|
|
|
|
* Store UTF-8 characters differently to reduce memory use.
|
|
|
|
* Fix break-pane -n when only one pane in the window.
|
|
|
|
* Instead of sending all data to control mode clients as fast as possible, add
|
|
a limit of how much data will be sent to the client and try to use it for
|
|
panes with some degree of fairness.
|
|
|
|
* Add an active-pane client flag (set with attach-session -f, new-session -f
|
|
or refresh-client -f). This allows a client to have an independent active
|
|
pane for interactive use (the window client pane is still used for many
|
|
things however).
|
|
|
|
* Add a mark to copy mode, this is set with the set-mark command (bound to X)
|
|
and appears with the entire line shown using copy-mode-mark-style and the
|
|
marked character in reverse. The jump-to-mark command (bound to M-x) swaps
|
|
the mark and the cursor positions.
|
|
|
|
* Add a -D flag to make the tmux server run in the foreground and not as a
|
|
daemon.
|
|
|
|
* Do not loop forever in copy mode when search finds an empty match.
|
|
|
|
* Fix the next-matching-bracket logic when using vi(1) keys.
|
|
|
|
* Add a customize mode where options may be browsed and changed, includes
|
|
adding a brief description of each option. Bound to C-b C by default.
|
|
|
|
* Change message log (C-b ~) so there is one for the server rather than one per
|
|
client and it remains after detach, and make it useful by logging every
|
|
command.
|
|
|
|
* Add M-+ and M-- to tree mode to expand and collapse all.
|
|
|
|
* Change the existing client flags for control mode to apply for any client,
|
|
use the same mechanism for the read-only flag and add an ignore-size flag.
|
|
|
|
refresh-client -F has become -f (-F stays for backwards compatibility) and
|
|
attach-session and switch-client now have -f flags also. A new format
|
|
client_flags lists the flags and is shown by list-clients by default.
|
|
|
|
This separates the read-only flag from "ignore size" behaviour (new
|
|
ignore-size) flag - both behaviours are useful in different circumstances.
|
|
|
|
attach -r and switchc -r remain and set or toggle both flags together.
|
|
|
|
* Store and restore cursor position when copy mode is resized.
|
|
|
|
* Export TERM_PROGRAM and TERM_PROGRAM_VERSION like various other terminals.
|
|
|
|
* Add formats for after hook command arguments: hook_arguments with all the
|
|
arguments together; hook_argument_0, hook_argument_1 and so on with
|
|
individual arguments; hook_flag_X if flag -X is present; hook_flag_X_0,
|
|
hook_flag_X_1 and so on if -X appears multiple times.
|
|
|
|
* Try to search the entire history first for up to 200 ms so a search count can
|
|
be shown. If it takes too long, search the visible text only.
|
|
|
|
* Use VIS_CSTYLE for paste buffers also (show \012 as \n).
|
|
|
|
* Change default formats for tree mode, client mode and buffer mode to be more
|
|
compact and remove some clutter.
|
|
|
|
* Add a key (e) in buffer mode to open the buffer in an editor. The buffer
|
|
contents is updated when the editor exits.
|
|
|
|
* Add -e flag for new-session to set environment variables, like the same flag
|
|
for new-window.
|
|
|
|
* Improve search match marking in copy mode. Two new options
|
|
copy-mode-match-style and copy-mode-current-match-style to set the style for
|
|
matches and for the current match respectively. Also a change so that if a
|
|
copy key is pressed with no selection, the current match (if any) is copied.
|
|
|
|
* Sanitize session names like window names instead of forbidding invalid ones.
|
|
|
|
* Check if the clear terminfo(5) capability starts with CSI and if so then
|
|
assume the terminal is VT100-like, rather than relying on the XT capability.
|
|
|
|
* Improve command prompt tab completion and add menus both for strings and -t
|
|
and -s (when used without a trailing space). command-prompt has additional
|
|
flags for only completing a window (-W) and a target (-T), allowing C-b ' to
|
|
only show windows and C-b . only targets.
|
|
|
|
* Change all the style options to string options so they can support formats.
|
|
Change pane-border-active-style to use this to change the border colour when
|
|
in a mode or with synchronize-panes on. This also implies a few minor changes
|
|
to existing behaviour:
|
|
|
|
- set-option -a with a style option automatically inserts a comma between the
|
|
old value and appended text.
|
|
|
|
- OSC 10 and 11 no longer set the window-style option, instead they store the
|
|
colour internally in the pane data and it is used as the default when the
|
|
option is evaluated.
|
|
|
|
- status-fg and -bg now override status-style instead of the option values
|
|
being changed.
|
|
|
|
* Add extension terminfo(5) capabilities for margins and focus reporting.
|
|
|
|
* Try $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/tmux/tmux.conf as well as ~/.config/tmux/tmux.conf for
|
|
configuration file (the search paths are in TMUX_CONF in Makefile.am).
|
|
|
|
* Remove the DSR 1337 iTerm2 extension and replace by the extended device
|
|
attributes sequence (CSI > q) supported by more terminals.
|
|
|
|
* Add a -s flag to copy-mode to specify a different pane for the source
|
|
content. This means it is possible to view two places in a pane's history at
|
|
the same time in different panes, or view the history while still using the
|
|
pane. Pressing r refreshes the content from the source pane.
|
|
|
|
* Add an argument to list-commands to show only a single command.
|
|
|
|
* Change copy mode to make copy of the pane history so it does not need to
|
|
freeze the pane.
|
|
|
|
* Restore pane_current_path format from portable tmux on OpenBSD.
|
|
|
|
* Wait until the initial command sequence is done before sending a device
|
|
attributes request and other bits that prompt a reply from the terminal. This
|
|
means that stray replies are not left on the terminal if the command has
|
|
attached and then immediately detached and tmux will not be around to receive
|
|
them.
|
|
|
|
* Add a -f filter argument to the list commands like choose-tree.
|
|
|
|
* Move specific hooks for panes to pane options and windows for window options
|
|
rather than all hooks being session options. These hooks are now window options:
|
|
|
|
window-layout-changed
|
|
window-linked
|
|
window-pane-changed
|
|
window-renamed
|
|
window-unlinked
|
|
|
|
And these are now pane options:
|
|
|
|
pane-died
|
|
pane-exited
|
|
pane-focus-in
|
|
pane-focus-out
|
|
pane-mode-changed
|
|
pane-set-clipboard
|
|
|
|
Any existing configurations using these hooks on a session rather than
|
|
globally (that is, set-hook or set-option without -g) may need to be changed.
|
|
|
|
* Show signal names when a process exits with remain-on-exit on platforms which
|
|
have a way to get them.
|
|
|
|
* Start menu with top item selected if no mouse and use mode-style for the
|
|
selected item.
|
|
|
|
* Add a copy-command option and change copy-pipe and friends to pipe to it if
|
|
used without arguments, allows all the default copy key bindings to be
|
|
changed to pipe with one option rather than needing to change each key
|
|
binding individually.
|
|
|
|
* Tidy up the terminal detection and feature code and add named sets of
|
|
terminal features, each of which are defined in one place and map to a
|
|
builtin set of terminfo(5) capabilities. Features can be specified based on
|
|
TERM with a new terminal-features option or with the -T flag when running
|
|
tmux. tmux will also detect a few common terminals from the DA and DSR
|
|
responses.
|
|
|
|
This is intended to make it easier to configure tmux's use of terminfo(5)
|
|
even in the presence of outdated ncurses(3) or terminfo(5) databases or for
|
|
features which do not yet have a terminfo(5) entry. Instead of having to grok
|
|
terminfo(5) capability names and what they should be set to in the
|
|
terminal-overrides option, the user can hopefully just give tmux a feature
|
|
name and let it do the right thing.
|
|
|
|
The terminal-overrides option remains both for backwards compatibility and to
|
|
allow tweaks of individual capabilities.
|
|
|
|
* Support mintty's application escape sequence (means tmux doesn't have to
|
|
delay to wait for Escape, so no need to reduce escape-time when using
|
|
mintty).
|
|
|
|
* Change so main-pane-width and height can be given as a percentage.
|
|
|
|
* Support for the iTerm2 synchronized updates feature (allows the terminal to
|
|
avoid unnecessary drawing while output is still in progress).
|
|
|
|
* Make the mouse_word and mouse_line formats work in copy mode and enable the
|
|
default pane menu in copy mode.
|
|
|
|
* Add a -T flag to resize-pane to trim lines below the cursor, moving lines out
|
|
of the history.
|
|
|
|
* Add a way to mark environment variables as "hidden" so they can be used by
|
|
tmux (for example in formats) but are not set in the environment for new
|
|
panes. set-environment and show-environment have a new -h flag and there is a
|
|
new %hidden statement for the configuration file.
|
|
|
|
* Change default position for display-menu -x and -y to centre rather than top
|
|
left.
|
|
|
|
* Add support for per-client transient popups, similar to menus but which are
|
|
connected to an external command (like a pane). These are created with new
|
|
command display-popup.
|
|
|
|
* Change double and triple click bindings so that only one is fired (previously
|
|
double click was fired on the way to triple click). Also add default double
|
|
and triple click bindings to copy the word or line under the cursor and
|
|
change the existing bindings in copy mode to do the same.
|
|
|
|
* Add a default binding for button 2 to paste.
|
|
|
|
* Add -d flag to run-shell to delay before running the command and allow it to
|
|
be used without a command so it just delays.
|
|
|
|
* Add C-g to cancel command prompt with vi keys as well as emacs, and q in
|
|
command mode.
|
|
|
|
* When the server socket is given with -S, create it with umask 177 instead of
|
|
117 (because it may not be in a safe directory like the default directory in
|
|
/tmp).
|
|
|
|
* Add a copy-mode -H flag to hide the position marker in the top right.
|
|
|
|
* Add number operators for formats (+, -, *, / and m),
|
|
|
|
CHANGED FROM 3.1b TO 3.1c
|
|
|
|
* Do not write after the end of the array and overwrite the stack when
|
|
colon-separated SGR sequences contain empty arguments.
|
|
|
|
CHANGES FROM 3.1a TO 3.1b
|
|
|
|
* Fix build on systems without sys/queue.h.
|
|
|
|
* Fix crash when allow-rename is on and an empty name is set.
|
|
|
|
CHANGES FROM 3.1 TO 3.1a
|
|
|
|
* Do not close stdout prematurely in control mode since it is needed to print
|
|
exit messages. Prevents hanging when detaching with iTerm2.
|
|
|
|
CHANGES FROM 3.0a TO 3.1
|
|
|
|
* Only search the visible part of the history when marking (highlighting)
|
|
search terms. This is much faster than searching the whole history and solves
|
|
problems with large histories. The count of matches shown is now the visible
|
|
matches rather than all matches.
|
|
|
|
* Search using regular expressions in copy mode. search-forward and
|
|
search-backward use regular expressions by default; the incremental versions
|
|
do not.
|
|
|
|
* Turn off mouse mode 1003 as well as the rest when exiting.
|
|
|
|
* Add selection_active format for when the selection is present but not moving
|
|
with the cursor.
|
|
|
|
* Fix dragging with modifier keys, so binding keys such as C-MouseDrag1Pane and
|
|
C-MouseDragEnd1Pane now work.
|
|
|
|
* Add -a to list-keys to also list keys without notes with -N.
|
|
|
|
* Do not jump to next word end if already on a word end when selecting a word;
|
|
fixes select-word with single character words and vi(1) keys.
|
|
|
|
* Fix top and bottom pane calculation with pane border status enabled.
|
|
|
|
* Add support for adding a note to a key binding (with bind-key -N) and use
|
|
this to add descriptions to the default key bindings. A new -N flag to
|
|
list-keys shows key bindings with notes. 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.
|
|
|
|
* Add support for the iTerm2 DSR 1337 sequence to get the terminal version.
|
|
|
|
* Treat plausible but invalid keys (like C-BSpace) as literal like any other
|
|
unrecognised string passed to send-keys.
|
|
|
|
* Detect iTerm2 and enable use of DECSLRM (much faster with horizontally split
|
|
windows).
|
|
|
|
* Add -Z to default switch-client command in tree mode.
|
|
|
|
* Add ~ to quoted characters for %%%.
|
|
|
|
* Document client exit messages in the manual page.
|
|
|
|
* Do not let read-only clients limit the size, unless all clients are
|
|
read-only.
|
|
|
|
* Add a number of new formats to inspect what sessions and clients a window is
|
|
present or active in.
|
|
|
|
* Change file reading and writing to go through the client if necessary. This
|
|
fixes commands like "tmux loadb /dev/fd/X". Also modify source-file to
|
|
support "-" for standard input, like load-buffer and save-buffer.
|
|
|
|
* Add ~/.config/tmux/tmux.conf to the default search path for configuration
|
|
files.
|
|
|
|
* Bump the escape sequence timeout to five seconds to allow for longer
|
|
legitimate sequences.
|
|
|
|
* Make a best effort to set xpixel and ypixel for each pane and add formats for
|
|
them.
|
|
|
|
* Add push-default to status-left and status-right in status-format[0].
|
|
|
|
* Do not clear search marks on cursor movement with vi(1) keys.
|
|
|
|
* Add p format modifier for padding to width and allow multiple substitutions
|
|
in a single format.
|
|
|
|
* Add -f for full size to join-pane (like split-window).
|
|
|
|
* Do not use bright when emulating 256 colours on an 8 colour terminal because
|
|
it is also bold on some terminals.
|
|
|
|
* Make select-pane -P set window-active-style also to match previous behaviour.
|
|
|
|
* Do not truncate list-keys output.
|
|
|
|
* Turn automatic-rename back on if the \033k rename escape sequence is used
|
|
with an empty name.
|
|
|
|
* Add support for percentage sizes for resize-pane ("-x 10%"). Also change
|
|
split-window and join-pane -l to accept similar percentages and deprecate the
|
|
-p flag.
|
|
|
|
* Add -F flag to send-keys to expand formats in search-backward and forward
|
|
copy mode commands and copy_cursor_word and copy_cursor_line formats for word
|
|
and line at cursor in copy mode. Use for default # and * binding with vi(1)
|
|
keys.
|
|
|
|
* Add formats for word and line at cursor position in copy mode.
|
|
|
|
* Add formats for cursor and selection position in copy mode.
|
|
|
|
* Support all the forms of RGB colour strings in OSC sequences rather than
|
|
requiring two digits.
|
|
|
|
* Limit lazy resize to panes in attached sessions only.
|
|
|
|
* Add an option to set the key sent by backspace for those whose system uses ^H
|
|
rather than ^?.
|
|
|
|
* Change new-session -A without a session name (that is, no -s option also) to
|
|
attach to the best existing session like attach-session rather than a new
|
|
one.
|
|
|
|
* Add a "latest" window-size option which tries to size windows based on the
|
|
most recently used client. This is now the default.
|
|
|
|
* Add simple support for OSC 7 (result is available in the pane_path format).
|
|
|
|
* Add push-default and pop-default for styles which change the colours and
|
|
attributes used for #[default]. These are used in status-format to restore
|
|
the behaviour of window-status-style being the default for
|
|
window-status-format.
|
|
|
|
* Add window_marked_flag.
|
|
|
|
* Add cursor-down-and-cancel in copy mode.
|
|
|
|
* Default to previous search string for search-forward and search-backward.
|
|
|
|
* Add -Z flag to rotate-window, select-pane, swap-pane, switch-client to
|
|
preserve zoomed state.
|
|
|
|
* Add -N to capture-pane to preserve trailing spaces.
|
|
|
|
* Add reverse sorting in tree, client and buffer modes.
|
|
|
|
CHANGES FROM 3.0 TO 3.0a
|
|
|
|
* Do not require REG_STARTEND.
|
|
|
|
* Respawn panes or windows correctly if default-command is set.
|
|
|
|
* Add missing option for after-kill-pane hook.
|
|
|
|
* Fix for crash with a format variable that doesn't exist.
|
|
|
|
* Do not truncate list-keys output on some platforms.
|
|
|
|
* Do not crash when restoring a layout with only one pane.
|
|
|
|
CHANGES FROM 2.9 TO 3.0
|
|
|
|
* Workaround invalid layout strings generated by older tmux versions and add
|
|
some additional sanity checks
|
|
|
|
* xterm 348 now disables margins when resized, so send DECLRMM again after
|
|
resize.
|
|
|
|
* Add support for the SD (scroll down) escape sequence.
|
|
|
|
* Expand arguments to C and s format modifiers to match the m modifier.
|
|
|
|
* Add support for underscore colours (Setulc capability must be added with
|
|
terminal-overrides as described in tmux(1)).
|
|
|
|
* Add a "fill" style attribute for the fill colour of the drawing area (where
|
|
appropriate).
|
|
|
|
* New -H flag to send-keys to send literal keys.
|
|
|
|
* Format variables for pane mouse modes (mouse_utf8_flag and mouse_sgr_flag)
|
|
and for origin mode (origin_flag).
|
|
|
|
* Add -F to refresh-client for flags for control mode clients, only one flag
|
|
(no-output) supported at the moment.
|
|
|
|
* Add a few vi(1) keys for menus.
|
|
|
|
* Add pane options, set with set-option -p and displayed with show-options -p.
|
|
Pane options inherit from window options (so every pane option is also
|
|
a window option). The pane style is now configured by setting window-style
|
|
and window-active-style in the pane options; select-pane -P and -g now change
|
|
the option but are no longer documented.
|
|
|
|
* Do not document set-window-option and show-window-options. set-option -w and
|
|
show-options -w should be used instead.
|
|
|
|
* Add a -A flag to show-options to show parent options as well (they are marked
|
|
with a *).
|
|
|
|
* Resize panes lazily - do not resize unless they are in an attached, active
|
|
window.
|
|
|
|
* Add regular expression support for the format search, match and substitute
|
|
modifiers and make them able to ignore case. find-window now accepts -r to
|
|
use regular expressions.
|
|
|
|
* Do not use $TMUX to find the session because for windows in multiple sessions
|
|
it is wrong as often as it is right, and for windows in one session it is
|
|
pointless. Instead use TMUX_PANE if it is present.
|
|
|
|
* Do not always resize the window back to its original size after applying a
|
|
layout, keep it at the layout size until it must be resized (for example when
|
|
attached and window-size is not manual).
|
|
|
|
* Add new-session -X and attach-session -x to send SIGHUP to parent when
|
|
detaching (like detach-client -P).
|
|
|
|
* Support for octal escapes in strings (such as \007) and improve list-keys
|
|
output so it parses correctly if copied into a configuration file.
|
|
|
|
* INCOMPATIBLE: Add a new {} syntax to the configuration file. This is a string
|
|
similar to single quotes but also includes newlines and allows commands that
|
|
take other commands as string arguments to be expressed more clearly and
|
|
without additional escaping.
|
|
|
|
A literal { and } or a string containing { or } must now be escaped or
|
|
quoted, for example '{' and '}' instead of { or }, or 'X#{foo}' instead of
|
|
X#{foo}.
|
|
|
|
* New <, >, <= and >= comparison operators for formats.
|
|
|
|
* Improve escaping of special characters in list-keys output.
|
|
|
|
* INCOMPATIBLE: tmux's configuration parsing has changed to use yacc(1). There
|
|
is one incompatible change: a \ on its own must be escaped or quoted as
|
|
either \\ or '\' (the latter works on older tmux versions).
|
|
|
|
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).
|
|
|
|
* Add support for the overline attribute (SGR 53). The Smol capability is
|
|
needed in terminal-overrides.
|
|
|
|
* Add the ability to create simple menus. Introduces new command
|
|
display-menu. Default menus are bound to MouseDown3 on the status line;
|
|
MouseDown3 or M-MouseDown3 on panes; MouseDown3 in tree, client and
|
|
buffer modes; and C-b < and >.
|
|
|
|
* Allow panes to be empty (no command). They can be created either by piping to
|
|
split-window -I, or by passing an empty command ('') to split-window. Output
|
|
can be sent to an existing empty window with display-message -I.
|
|
|
|
* Add keys to jump between matching brackets (emacs C-M-f and C-M-b, vi %).
|
|
|
|
* Add a -e flag to new-window, split-window, respawn-window, respawn-pane to
|
|
pass environment variables into the newly created process.
|
|
|
|
* Hooks are now stored in the options tree as array options, allowing them to
|
|
have multiple separate commands. set-hook and show-hooks remain but
|
|
set-option and show-options can now also be used (show-options will only show
|
|
hooks if given the -H flag). Hooks with multiple commands are run in index
|
|
order.
|
|
|
|
* Automatically scroll if dragging to create a selection with the mouse and the
|
|
cursor reaches the top or bottom line.
|
|
|
|
* Add -no-clear variants of copy-selection and copy-pipe which do not clear the
|
|
selection after copying. Make copy-pipe clear the selection by default to be
|
|
consistent with copy-selection.
|
|
|
|
* Add an argument to copy commands to set the prefix for the buffer name, this
|
|
(for example) allows buffers for different sessions to be named separately.
|
|
|
|
* Update session activity on focus event.
|
|
|
|
* Pass target from source-file into the config file parser so formats in %if
|
|
and %endif have access to more useful variables.
|
|
|
|
* Add the ability to infer an option type (server, session, window) from its
|
|
name to show-options (it was already present in set-option).
|
|
|
|
CHANGES FROM 2.9 TO 2.9a
|
|
|
|
* Fix bugs in select-pane and the main-horizontal and main-vertical layouts.
|
|
|
|
CHANGES FROM 2.8 TO 2.9
|
|
|
|
* Attempt to preserve horizontal cursor position as well as vertical with
|
|
reflow.
|
|
|
|
* Rewrite main-vertical and horizontal and change layouts to better handle the
|
|
case where all panes won't fit into the window size, reduce problems with
|
|
pane border status lines and fix other bugs mostly found by Thomas Sattler.
|
|
|
|
* Add format variables for the default formats in the various modes
|
|
(tree_mode_format and so on) and add a -a flag to display-message to list
|
|
variables with values.
|
|
|
|
* Add a -v flag to display-message to show verbose messages as the format is
|
|
parsed, this allows formats to be debugged
|
|
|
|
* Add support for HPA (\033[`).
|
|
|
|
* Add support for origin mode (\033[?6h).
|
|
|
|
* No longer clear history on RIS.
|
|
|
|
* Extend the #[] style syntax and use that together with previous format
|
|
changes to allow the status line to be entirely configured with a single
|
|
option.
|
|
|
|
Now that it is possible to configure their content, enable the existing code
|
|
that lets the status line be multiple lines in height. The status option can
|
|
now take a value of 2, 3, 4 or 5 (as well as the previous on or off) to
|
|
configure more than one line. The new status-format array option configures
|
|
the format of each line, the default just references the existing status-*
|
|
options, although some of the more obscure status options may be eliminated
|
|
in time.
|
|
|
|
Additions to the #[] syntax are: "align" to specify alignment (left, centre,
|
|
right), "list" for the window list and "range" to configure ranges of text
|
|
for the mouse bindings.
|
|
|
|
The "align" keyword can also be used to specify alignment of entries in tree
|
|
mode and the pane status lines.
|
|
|
|
* Add E: and T: format modifiers to expand a format twice (useful to expand the
|
|
value of an option).
|
|
|
|
* The individual -fg, -bg and -attr options have been removed; they
|
|
were superseded by -style options in tmux 1.9.
|
|
|
|
* Allow more than one mode to be opened in a pane. Modes are kept on a stack
|
|
and retrieved if the same mode is entered again. Exiting the active mode goes
|
|
back to the previous one.
|
|
|
|
* When showing command output in copy mode, call it view mode instead (affects
|
|
pane_mode format).
|
|
|
|
* Add -b to display-panes like run-shell.
|
|
|
|
* Handle UTF-8 in word-separators option.
|
|
|
|
* New "terminal" colour allowing options to use the terminal default colour
|
|
rather than inheriting the default from a parent option.
|
|
|
|
* Do not move the cursor in copy mode when the mouse wheel is used.
|
|
|
|
* Use the same working directory rules for jobs as new windows rather than
|
|
always starting in the user's home.
|
|
|
|
* Allow panes to be one line or column in size.
|
|
|
|
* Go to last line when goto-line number is out of range in copy mode.
|
|
|
|
* Yank previously cut text if any with C-y in the command prompt, only use the
|
|
buffer if no text has been cut.
|
|
|
|
* Add q: format modifier to quote shell special characters.
|
|
|
|
* Add StatusLeft and StatusRight mouse locations (keys such as
|
|
MouseDown1StatusLeft) for the status-left and status-right areas of the
|
|
status line.
|
|
|
|
* Add -Z to find-window.
|
|
|
|
* Support for windows larger than the client. This adds 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. 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).
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
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 higher memory use if making a window that 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.
|
|
|
|

|
* Allow any punctuation as separator for s/x/y not only /.
|
|
|
|
* Improve resizing with the mouse (fix resizing the wrong pane in some
|
|
layouts, and allow resizing multiple panes at the same time).
|
|
|
|
* Allow , and } to be escaped in formats as #, and #}.
|
|
|
|
* Add KRB5CCNAME to update-environment.
|
|
|
|

|
|
matches the session given to -t.
|
|
|
|
* Fixes to : form of SGR.
|
|
|
|
* Add x and X to choose-tree to kill sessions, windows or panes.
|
|
|
|
CHANGES FROM 2.6 TO 2.7
|
|
|
|
* Remove EVENT_* variables from environment on platforms where tmux uses them
|
|
so they do not pass on to panes.
|
|
|
|
* Fixes for hooks at server exit.
|
|
|
|
* Remove SGR 10 (was equivalent to SGR 0 but no other terminal seems to do
|
|
this).
|
|
|
|
* Expand formats in window and session names.
|
|
|
|
* Add -Z flag to choose-tree, choose-client, choose-buffer to automatically
|
|
zoom the pane when the mode is entered and unzoom when it exits, assuming the

|
pane is not already zoomed. This is now part of the default key bindings.
|
|
|
|
* Add C-g to exit modes with emacs keys.
|
|

|
|
|
|
* Performance improvements for reflow.
|
|
|
|
* Use RGB terminfo(5) capability to detect RGB colour terminals (the existing
|
|
Tc extension remains unchanged).
|
|
|
|
* Support for ISO colon-separated SGR sequences.
|
|
|
|
* Add select-layout -E to spread panes out evenly (bound to E key).
|
|
|
|
* Support wide characters properly when reflowing.
|
|
|
|
* Pass PWD to new panes as a hint to shells, as well as calling chdir().
|
|
|
|
* Performance improvements for the various choose modes.
|
|
|
|
* Only show first member of session groups in tree mode (-G flag to choose-tree
|
|
to show all).
|
|
|
|
* Support %else in config files to match %if; from Brad Town in GitHub issue
|
|
1071.
|
|
|
|
* Fix "kind" terminfo(5) capability to be S-Down not S-Up.
|
|
|
|
* Add a box around the preview label in tree mode.
|
|
|
|
* Show exit status and time in the remain-on-exit pane text; from Timo
|
|
Boettcher in GitHub issue 1103.
|
|
|
|
* Correctly use pane-base-index in tree mode.
|
|
|
|
* Change the allow-rename option default to off.
|
|
|
|
* Support for xterm(1) title stack escape sequences (GitHub issue 1075 from
|
|
Brad Town).
|
|
|
|
* Correctly remove padding cells to fix a UTF-8 display problem (GitHub issue
|
|
1090).
|
|
|
|
CHANGES FROM 2.5 TO 2.6, 05 October 2017
|
|
|
|
* Add select-pane -T to set pane title.
|
|
|
|
* Fix memory leak when lines with BCE are removed from history.
|
|
|
|
* Fix (again) the "prefer unattached" behaviour of attach-session.
|
|
|
|
* Reorder how keys are checked to allow keys to be specified that have a
|
|
leading escape. GitHub issue 1048.
|
|
|
|
* Support REP escape sequence (\033[b).
|
|
|
|
* Run alert hooks based on options rather than always, and allow further bells
|
|
even if there is an existing bell.
|
|
|
|
* Add -d flag to display-panes to override display-panes-time.
|
|
|
|
* Add selection_present format when in copy mode (allows key bindings that do
|
|
something different if there is a selection).
|
|
|
|
* Add pane_at_left, pane_at_right, pane_at_top and pane_at_bottom formats.
|
|
|
|
* Make bell, activity and silence alerting more consistent by: removing the
|
|
bell-on-alert option; adding activity-action and silence-action options with
|
|
the same possible values as the existing bell-action; adding a "both" value
|
|
for the visual-bell, visual-activity and visual-silence options to trigger
|
|
both a bell and a message.
|
|
|
|
* Add a pane_pipe format to show if pipe-pane is active.
|
|
|
|
* Block signals between forking and resetting signal handlers so that the
|
|
libevent signal handler doesn't get called in the child and incorrectly write
|
|
into the signal pipe that it still shares with the parent. GitHub issue 1001.
|
|
|
|
* Allow punctuation in pane_current_command.
|
|
|
|
* Add -c for respawn-pane and respawn-window.
|
|
|
|
* Wait for any remaining data to flush when a pane is closed while pipe-pane is
|
|
in use.
|
|
|
|
* Fix working out current client with no target. GitHub issue 995.
|
|
|
|
* Try to fallback to C.UTF-8 as well as en_US.UTF-8 when looking for a UTF-8
|
|
locale.
|
|
|
|
* Add user-keys option for user-defined key escape sequences (mapped to User0
|
|
to User999 keys).
|
|
|
|
* Add pane-set-clipboard hook.
|
|
|
|
* FAQ file has moved out of repository to online.
|
|
|
|
* Fix problem with high CPU usage when a client dies unexpectedly. GitHub issue
|
|
941.
|
|
|
|
* Do a dance on OS X 10.10 and above to return tmux to the user namespace,
|
|
allowing access to the clipboard.
|
|
|
|
* Do not allow escape sequences which expect a specific terminator (APC, DSC,
|
|
OSC) to wait for forever - use a small timeout. This reduces the chance of
|
|
the pane locking up completely when sent garbage (cat /dev/random or
|
|
similar).
|
|
|
|
* Support SIGUSR2 to toggle logging on a running server, also generate the
|
|
"out" log file with -vv not -vvvv.
|
|
|
|
* Make set-clipboard a three state option: on (tmux both sends to outside
|
|
terminal and accepts from applications inside); external (tmux sends outside
|
|
but does not accept inside); and off.
|
|
|
|
* Fix OSC 4 palette setting for bright foreground colours. GitHub issue 954.
|
|
|
|
* Use setrgbf and setrgbb terminfo(5) capabilities to set RGB colours, if they
|
|
are available. (Tc is still supported as well.)
|
|
|
|
* Fix redrawing panes when they are resized several times but end up with the
|
|
size unchanged (for example, splitw/resizep -Z/breakp).
|
|
|
|
* Major rewrite of choose mode. Now includes preview, sorting, searching and
|
|
tagging; commands that can be executed directly from the mode (for example,
|
|
to delete one or more buffers); and filtering in tree mode.
|
|
|
|
* choose-window and choose-session are now aliases of choose-tree (in the
|
|
command-alias option).
|
|
|
|
* Support OSC 10 and OSC 11 to set foreground and background colours.
|
|
|
|
* Check the U8 capability to determine whether to use UTF-8 line drawing
|
|
characters for ACS.
|
|
|
|
* Some missing notifications for layout changes.
|
|
|
|
* Control mode clients now do not affect session sizes until they issue
|
|
refresh-client -C. new-session -x and -y works with control clients even if
|
|
the session is not detached.
|
|
|
|
* All new sessions that are unattached (whether with -d or started with no
|
|
terminal) are now created with size 80 x 24. Whether the status line is on or
|
|
off does not affect the size of new sessions until they are attached.
|
|
|
|
* Expand formats in option names and add -F flag to expand them in option values.
|
|
|
|
* Remember the search string for a pane even if copy mode is exited and entered
|
|
again.
|
|
|
|
* Some further BCE fixes (scroll up, reverse index).
|
|
|
|
* Improvements to how terminals are cleared (entirely or partially).
|

CHANGES FROM 2.4 TO 2.5, 09 May 2017

|
|
|
* Reset updated flag when restarting #() command so that new output is properly
|
|
recognised. GitHub issue 922.
|
|
|
|
* Fix ECH with a background colour.
|
|
|
|
* Do not rely on the terminal not moving the cursor after DL or EL.
|
|
|
|
* Fix send-keys and send-prefix in copy-mode (so C-b C-b works). GitHub issue
|
|
905.
|
|
|
|
* Set the current pane for rotate-window so it works in command sequences.
|
|
|
|
* Add pane_mode format.
|
|
|
|
* Differentiate M-Up from Escape+Up when possible (that is, in terminals with
|
|
xterm(1) style function keys). GitHub issue 907.
|
|
|
|
* Add session_stack and window_stack_index formats.
|
|
|
|
* Some new control mode notifications and corresponding hooks:
|
|
pane-mode-changed, window-pane-changed, client-session-changed,
|
|
session-window-changed.
|
|
|
|
* Format pane_search_string for last search term while in copy mode (useful
|
|
with command-prompt -I).
|
|
|
|
* Fix a problem with high CPU usage and multiple clients with #(). GitHub issue
|
|
889.
|
|
|
|
* Fix UTF-8 combining characters in column 0.
|
|
|
|
* Fix reference counting so that panes are properly destroyed and their
|
|
processes killed.
|
|
|
|
* Clamp SU (CSI S) parameter to work around a bug in Konsole.
|
|
|
|
* Tweak line wrapping in full width panes to play more nicely with terminal
|
|
copy and paste.
|
|
|
|
* Fix when we emit SGR 0 in capture-pane -e.
|
|
|
|
* Do not change TERM until after config file parsing has finished, so that
|
|
commands run inside the config file can use it to make decisions (typically
|
|
about default-terminal).
|
|
|
|
* Make the initial client wait until config file parsing has finished to avoid
|
|
racing with commands.
|
|
|
|
* Fix core when if-shell fails.
|
|
|
|
* Only use ED to clear screen if the pane is at the bottom.
|
|
|
|
* Fix multibyte UTF-8 output.
|
|
|
|
* Code improvements around target (-t) resolution.
|
|
|
|
* Change how the default target (for commands without -t) is managed across
|
|
command sequences: now it is set up at the start and commands are required
|
|
to update it if needed. Fixes binding command sequences to mouse keys.
|
|
|
|
* Make if-shell from the config file work correctly.
|
|
|
|
* Change to always check the root key table if no binding is found in the
|
|
current table (prefix table or copy-mode table or whatever). This means that
|
|
root key bindings will take effect even in copy mode, if not overridden by a
|
|
copy mode key binding.
|
|
|
|
* Fix so that the history file works again.
|
|
|
|
* Run config file without a client rather than using the first client, restores
|
|
previous behaviour.
|
|
|
|
* If a #() command doesn't exit, continue to read from it and use its last full
|
|
line of output.
|
|
|
|
* Handle slow terminals and fast output better: when the amount of data
|
|
outstanding gets too large, discard output until it is drained and we are
|
|
able to do a full redraw. Prevents tmux sitting on a huge buffer that the
|
|
terminal will take forever to consume.
|
|
|
|
* Do not redraw a client unless we realistically think it can accept the data -
|
|
defer redraws until the client has nothing else waiting to write.
|
|
|

CHANGES FROM 2.3 TO 2.4, 20 April 2017
|
|
|
|
Incompatible Changes
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
* Key tables have undergone major changes. Mode key tables are no longer
|
|
separate from the main key tables. All mode key tables have been removed,
|
|
together with the -t flag to bind-key and unbind-key.
|
|
|
|
The emacs-edit, vi-edit, emacs-choose and vi-choose tables have been replaced
|
|
by fixed key bindings in the command prompt and choose modes. The mode-keys
|
|
and status-keys options remain.
|
|
|
|
The emacs-copy and vi-copy tables have been replaced by the copy-mode and
|
|
copy-mode-vi tables. Commands are sent using the -X and -N flags to
|
|
send-keys. So the following:
|
|
|
|
bind -temacs-copy C-Up scroll-up
|
|
bind -temacs-copy -R5 WheelUpPane scroll-up
|
|
|
|
Becomes:
|
|
|
|
bind -Tcopy-mode C-Up send -X scroll-up
|
|
bind -Tcopy-mode WheelUpPane send -N5 -X scroll-up
|
|
|
|
These changes allows the full command parser (including command sequences) and
|
|
command set to be used - for example, the normal command prompt with editing
|
|
and history is now used for searching, jumping, and so on instead of a custom
|
|
one. The default C-r binding is now:
|
|
|
|
bind -Tcopy-mode C-r command-prompt -i -p'search up' "send -X search-backward-incremental '%%'"
|
|
|
|
There are also some new commmands available with send -X, such as
|
|
copy-pipe-and-cancel.
|
|
* set-remain-on-exit has gone -- can be achieved with hooks instead.
|
|
* Hooks: before hooks have been removed and only a selection of commands now
|
|
have after hooks (they are no longer automatic). Additional hooks have been
|
|
added.
|
|
* The xterm-keys option now defaults to on.
|
|
|
|
Normal Changes
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
* Support for mouse double and triple clicks.
|
|
* BCE (Background Colour Erase) is now supported.
|
|
* All occurrences of a search string in copy mode are now highlighted;
|
|
additionally, the number of search results is displayed. The highlighting
|
|
updates interactively with the default emacs key bindings (incremental
|
|
search).
|
|
* source-file now understands glob patterns.
|
|
* Formats now have simple comparisons:
|
|
|
|
#{==:a,b}
|
|
#{!=:a,b}
|
|
|
|
* There are the following new formats:
|
|
|
|
- #{version} -- the tmux server version;
|
|
- #{client_termtype} -- the terminal type of the client;
|
|
- #{client_name} -- the name of a client;
|
|
- #{client_written} -- the number of bytes written to the client.
|
|
|
|
* The configuration file now accepts %if/%endif conditional blocks which are
|
|
processed when it is parsed; the argument is a format string (useful with the
|
|
new format comparison options).
|
|
* detach-client now has -E to execute a command replacing the client instead of
|
|
exiting.
|
|
* Add support for custom command aliases, this is an array option which
|
|
contains items of the form "alias=command". This is consulted when an
|
|
unknown command is parsed.
|
|
* break-pane now has -n to specify the new window name.
|
|
* OSC 52 support has been added for programs inside tmux to set a tmux buffer.
|
|
* The mouse "all event" mode (1003) is now supported.
|
|
* Palette setting is now possible (OSC 4 and 104).
|
|
* Strikethrough support (a recent terminfo is required).
|
|
* Grouped sessions can now be named (new -t).
|
|
* terminal-overrides and update-environment are now array options (the previous
|
|
set -ag syntax should work without change).
|
|
* There have been substantial performance improvements.
|
|

|
|
* 'window-status-separator' understands #[] expansions.
|
|
* 'split-window' understands '-f' for performing a full-width split.
|

|
|
* 'set -a' for appending to user options (@foo) is now supported.
|
|
* 'display-panes' can now accept a command to run, rather than always
|
|
selecting the pane.
|
|
|
|
CHANGES FROM 2.1 TO 2.2, 10 April 2016
|
|
|
|
Incompatible Changes
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
* The format strings which referenced time have been removed. Instead:
|
|
|
|
#{t:window_activity}
|
|
|
|
can be used.
|
|
|
|
* Support for TMPDIR has been removed. Use TMUX_TMPDIR instead.
|
|
* UTF8 detection now happens automatically if the client supports it, hence
|
|
the:
|
|
|
|
mouse-utf8
|
|
utf8
|
|
|
|
options has been removed.
|
|
* The:
|
|
|
|
mouse_utf8_flag
|
|
|
|
format string has been removed.
|
|
* The -I option to show-messages has been removed. See:
|
|
|
|
#{t:start_time}
|
|
|
|
format option instead.
|
|
|
|
Normal Changes
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
* Panes are unzoomed with selectp -LRUD
|
|
* New formats added:
|
|
|
|
#{scroll_position}
|
|
#{socket_path}
|
|
#{=10:...} -- limit to N characters (from the start)
|
|
#{=-10:...} -- limit to N characters (from the end)
|
|
#{t:...} -- used to format time-based formats
|
|
#{b:...} -- used to ascertain basename from string
|
|
#{d:...} -- used to ascertain dirname from string
|
|
#{s:...} -- used to perform substitutions on a string
|
|
|
|
* Job output is run via the format system, so formats work again
|
|
* If display-time is set to 0, then the indicators wait for a key to be
|
|
pressed.
|
|
* list-keys and list-commands can be run without starting the tmux server.
|
|
* kill-session learns -C to clear all alerts in all windows of the session.
|
|
* Support for hooks (internal for now), but hooks for the following have been
|
|
implemented:
|
|
|
|
alert-bell
|
|
alert-silence
|
|
alert-activity
|
|
client-attached
|
|
client-detached
|
|
client-resized
|
|
pane-died
|
|
pane-exited
|
|
|
|
* RGB (24bit) colour support. The 'Tc' flag must be set in the external TERM
|
|
entry (using terminal-overrides or a custom terminfo entry).
|
|
|
|
CHANGES FROM 2.0 TO 2.1, 18 October 2015
|
|
|
|
Incompatible Changes
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
* Mouse-mode has been rewritten. There's now no longer options for:
|
|
- mouse-resize-pane
|
|
- mouse-select-pane
|
|
- mouse-select-window
|
|
- mode-mouse
|
|
|
|
Instead there is just one option: 'mouse' which turns on mouse support
|
|
entirely.
|
|
* 'default-terminal' is now a session option. Furthermore, if this is set
|
|
to 'screen-*' then emulate what screen does. If italics are wanted, this
|
|
can be set to 'tmux' but this is still new and not necessarily supported
|
|
on all platforms with older ncurses installs.
|
|
* The c0-* options for rate-limiting have been removed. Instead, a backoff
|
|
approach is used.
|
|
|
|
Normal Changes
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
* New formats:
|
|
- session_activity
|
|
- window_linked
|
|
- window_activity_format
|
|
- session_alerts
|
|
- session_last_attached
|
|
- client_pid
|
|
- pid
|
|
* 'copy-selection', 'append-selection', 'start-named-buffer' now understand
|
|
an '-x' flag to prevent it exiting copying mode.
|
|
* 'select-pane' now understands '-P' to set window/pane background colours.
|
|
* 'renumber-windows' now understands windows which are unlinked.
|
|
* 'bind' now understands multiple key tables. Allows for key-chaining.
|
|
* 'select-layout' understands '-o' to undo the last layout change.
|
|
* The environment is updated when switching sessions as well as attaching.
|
|
* 'select-pane' now understands '-M' for marking a pane. This marked pane
|
|
can then be used with commands which understand src-pane specifiers
|
|
automatically.
|
|
* If a session/window target is prefixed with '=' then only an exact match
|
|
is considered.
|
|
* 'move-window' understands '-a'.
|
|
* 'update-environment' understands '-E' when attach-session is used on an
|
|
already attached client.
|
|
* 'show-environment' understands '-s' to output Bourne-compatible commands.
|
|
* New option: 'history-file' to save/restore command prompt history.
|
|
* Copy mode is exited if the history is cleared whilst in copy-mode.
|
|
* 'copy-mode' learned '-e' to exit copy-mode when scrolling to end.
|

CHANGES FROM 1.9a TO 2.0, 06 March 2015
|
|
|
|
Incompatible Changes
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
* The choose-list command has been removed.
|
|
* 'terminal-overrides' is now a server option, not a session option.
|
|
* 'message-limit' is now a server option, not a session option.
|
|
* 'monitor-content' option has been removed.
|
|
* 'pane_start_path' option has been removed.
|
|
* The "info" mechanism which used to (for some commands) provide feedback
|
|
has been removed, and like other commands, they now produce nothing on
|
|
success.
|
|
|
|
Normal Changes
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
* tmux can now write an entry to utmp if the library 'utempter' is present
|
|
at compile time.
|
|
* set-buffer learned append mode (-a), and a corresponding
|
|
'append-selection' command has been added to copy-mode.
|
|
* choose-mode now has the following commands which can be bound:
|
|
- start-of-list
|
|
- end-of-list
|
|
- top-line
|
|
- bottom-line
|
|
|
|
* choose-buffer now understands UTF-8.
|
|
* Pane navigation has changed:
|
|
- The old way of always using the top or left if the choice is ambiguous.
|
|
- The new way of remembering the last used pane is annoying if the
|
|
layout is balanced and the leftmost is obvious to the user (because
|
|
clearly if we go right from the top-left in a tiled set of four we want
|
|
to end up in top-right, even if we were last using the bottom-right).
|
|
|
|
So instead, use a combination of both: if there is only one possible
|
|
pane alongside the current pane, move to it, otherwise choose the most
|
|
recently used of the choice.
|
|
* 'set-buffer' can now be told to give names to buffers.
|
|
* The 'new-session', 'new-window', 'split-window', and 'respawn-pane' commands
|
|
now understand multiple arguments and handle quoting problems correctly.
|
|
* 'capture-pane' understands '-S-' to mean the start of the pane, and '-E-' to
|
|
mean the end of the pane.
|
|
* Support for function keys beyond F12 has changed. The following explains:
|
|
- F13-F24 are S-F1 to S-F12
|
|
- F25-F36 are C-F1 to C-F12
|
|
- F37-F48 are C-S-F1 to C-S-F12
|
|
- F49-F60 are M-F1 to M-F12
|
|
- F61-F63 are M-S-F1 to M-S-F3
|
|
|
|
Therefore, F13 becomes a binding of S-F1, etc.
|
|
* Support using pane id as part of session or window specifier (so % means
|
|
session-of-%1 or window-of-%1) and window id as part of session
|
|
(so @1 means session-of-@1).
|
|
* 'copy-pipe' command now understands formats via -F
|
|
* 'if-shell' command now understands formats via -F
|
|
* 'split-window' and 'join-window' understand -b to create the pane to the left
|
|
or above the target pane.
|
|
|
|
CHANGES FROM 1.9 TO 1.9a, 22 February 2014
|
|
|
|
NOTE: This is a bug-fix release to address some important bugs which just
|
|
missed the 1.9 deadline, but were found afterwards.
|
|
|
|
Normal Changes
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
* Fix crash due to uninitialized lastwp member of layout_cell
|
|
* Fix -fg/-bg/-style with 256 colour terminals.
|
|
|
|
CHANGES FROM 1.8 TO 1.9, 20 February 2014
|
|
|
|
NOTE: This release has bumped the tmux protocol version. It is therefore
|
|
advised that the prior tmux server is restarted when this version of tmux is
|
|
installed, to avoid protocol mismatch errors for newer clients trying to
|
|
talk to an older running tmux server.
|
|
|
|
Incompatible Changes
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
* 88 colour support has been removed.
|
|
* 'default-path' has been removed. The new-window command accepts '-c' to
|
|
cater for this. The previous value of "." can be replaced with: 'neww -c
|
|
$PWD', the previous value of '' which meant current path of the pane can
|
|
be specified as: 'neww -c "#{pane_current_path}"'
|
|
|
|
Deprecated Changes
|
|
==================
|
|
|
|
* The single format specifiers: #A -> #Z (where defined) have been
|
|
deprecated and replaced with longer-named equivalents, as listed in the
|
|
FORMATS section of the tmux manpage.
|
|
* The various foo-{fg,bg,attr} commands have been deprecated and replaced
|
|
with equivalent foo-style option instead. Currently this is still
|
|
backwards-compatible, but will be removed over time.
|
|
|
|
Normal Changes
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
* A new environment variable TMUX_TMPDIR is now honoured, allowing the
|
|
socket directory to be set outside of TMPDIR (/tmp/ if not set).
|
|
* If -s not given to swap-pane the current pane is assumed.
|
|
* A #{pane_synchronized} format specifier has been added to be a conditional
|
|
format if a pane is in a synchronised mode (c.f. synchronize-panes)
|
|
* Tmux now runs under Cygwin natively.
|
|
* Formats can now be nested within each other and expanded accordingly.
|
|
* Added 'automatic-rename-format' option to allow the automatic rename
|
|
mechanism to use something other than the default of
|
|
#{pane_current_command}.
|
|
* new-session learnt '-c' to specify the starting directory for that session
|
|
and all subsequent windows therein.
|
|
* The session name is now shown in the message printed to the terminal when
|
|
a session is detached.
|
|
* Lots more format specifiers have been added.
|
|
* Server race conditions have been fixed; in particular commands are not run
|
|
until after the configuration file is read completely.
|
|
* Case insensitive searching in tmux's copy-mode is now possible.
|
|
* attach-session and switch-client learnt the '-t' option to accept a window
|
|
and/or a pane to use.
|
|
* Copy-mode is only exited if no selection is in progress.
|
|
* Paste key in copy-mode is now possible to enter text from the clipboard.
|
|
* status-interval set to '0' now works as intended.
|
|
* tmux now supports 256 colours running under fbterm.
|
|
* Many bug fixes!

|
|
cursor.
|
|
* run-shell learnt '-t' to specify the pane to use when displaying output.
|
|
* Support for middle-click pasting.
|
|
* choose-tree learns '-u' to start uncollapsed.
|
|
* select-window learnt '-T' to toggle to the last window if it's already
|
|
current.
|
|

|
|
actions.
|
|
* choose-* commands now work outside of an attached client.
|
|
* Aliases are now shown for list-commands command.
|
|
* Status learns about formats.
|
|
* Free-form options can be set with set-option if prepended with an '@'
|
|
sign.
|
|
* capture-pane learnt '-p' to send to stdout, and '-e' for capturing escape
|
|
sequences, and '-a' to capture the alternate screen, and '-P' to dump
|
|
pending output.
|
|
* Many new formats added (client_session, client_last_session, etc.)
|
|
* Control mode, which is a way for a client to send tmux commands.
|
|
Currently more useful to users of iterm2.
|
|
* resize-pane learnt '-x' and '-y' for absolute pane sizing.
|
|
* Config file loading now reports errors from all files which are loaded via
|
|
the 'source-file' command.
|
|
* 'copy-pipe' mode command to copy selection and pipe the selection to a
|
|
command.
|
|
* Panes can now emit focus notifications for certain applications
|
|
which use those.
|
|
* run-shell and if-shell now accept formats.
|
|
* resize-pane learnt '-Z' for zooming a pane temporarily.
|
|
* new-session learnt '-A' to make it behave like attach-session.
|
|

|
|
* capture-pane and show-options learns '-q' to silence errors.
|
|

|
|

|
|

|
|
* Various manpage improvements.

|
|

|
|
the screen.
|
|

|
|
* Add pane id to each pane in layout description (while still accepting
|
|
the old form).
|
|
* Provide defined ways to set the various default-path possibilities: ~
|
|
for home directory, . for server start directory, - for session start
|
|
directory and empty for the pane's working directory (the default). All
|
|
can also be used as part of a relative path (eg -/foo). Also provide -c
|
|
flags to neww and splitw to override default-path setting.
|
|
* Add -l flag to send-keys to send input literally (without translating
|
|
key names).
|
|
* Allow a single option to be specified to show-options to show just that
|
|
option.
|
|
* New command "move-pane" (like join-pane but allows the same window).
|
|
* join-pane and move-pane commands learn "-b" option to place the pane to
|
|
the left or above.
|
|
* Support for bracketed-paste mode.
|
|
* Allow send-keys command to accept hex values.
|
|
* Add locking around "start-server" to avoid race-conditions.
|

|
|
* copy mode learns "wrap-search" option.
|
|
* Add a simple form of output rate limiting by counting the number of
|
|
certain C0 sequences (linefeeds, backspaces, carriage returns) and if it
|
|
exceeds a threshold (current default 250/millisecond), start to redraw
|
|
the pane every 100 milliseconds instead of making each change as it
|
|
comes. Two configuration options - c0-change-trigger and
|
|
c0-change-interval.
|
|
* find-window learns new flags: "-C", "-N", "-T" to match against either or
|
|
all of a window's content, name, or title. Defaults to all three options
|
|
if none specified.
|
|
* find-window automatically selects the appropriate pane for the found
|
|
matches.
|
|
* show-environment can now accept one option to show that environment value.

|
|
killing all but the current thing specified.
|
|
* move-window learns "-r" option to renumber window sequentially in a
|
|
session.
|
|
* New session option "renumber-windows" to automatically renumber windows in
|
|
a session when a window is closed. (see "move-window -r").
|
|
* Only enter copy-mode on scroll up.
|
|
* choose-* and list-* commands all use "-F" for format specifiers.
|
|
* When spawning external commands, the value from the "default-shell" option
|
|
is now used, rather than assuming /bin/sh.
|
|
* New choose-tree command to render window/sessions as a tree for selection.
|
|
* display-message learns new format options.
|
|
* For linked-windows across sessions, all flags for that window are now
|
|
cleared across sessions.
|
|
* Lots and lots of bug fixes, fixing memory-leaks, etc.
|
|
* Various manpage improvements.
|
|

CHANGES FROM 1.5 TO 1.6, 23 January 2012
|
|
|
|
* Extend the mode-mouse option to add a third choice which means the mouse
|
|
does not enter copy mode.
|
|
* Add a -r flag to switch-client to toggle the client read-only flag.
|
|
* Add pane-base-index option.
|
|
* Support \ for line continuation in the configuration file.
|
|
* Framework for more powerful formatting of command output and use it for
|
|
list-{panes,windows,sessions}. This allows more descriptive replacements
|
|
(such as #{session_name}) and conditionals.
|
|
* Mark dead panes with some text saying they are dead.
|
|
* Reject $SHELL if it is not a full path.
|
|
* Add -S option to refresh-client to redraw status line.
|
|
* Add an else clause for if-shell.
|
|
* Try to resolve relative paths for loadb and saveb (first, using client
|
|
working directory, if any, then default-path or session working directory).
|
|
* Support for \e[3J to clear the history and send the corresponding
|
|
terminfo code (E3) before locking.
|
|
* When in copy mode, make repeat count indicate buffer to replace, if used.
|
|
* Add screen*:XT to terminal-overrides for tmux-in-tmux.
|
|
* Status-line message attributes added.
|
|
* Move word-separators to be a session rather than window option.
|
|
* Change the way the working directory for new processes is discovered. If
|
|
default-path isn't empty, it is used. Otherwise, if a new window is created
|
|
from the command-line, the working directory of the client is used. If not,
|
|
platform specific code is used to retrieve the current working directory
|
|
of the process in the active pane. If that fails, the directory where the
|
|
session was created is used, instead.
|
|
* Do not change the current pane if both mouse-select-{pane,window} are
|
|
enabled.
|
|
* Add \033[s and \033[u to save and restore cursor position.
|
|
* Allow $HOME to be used as default-path.
|
|
* Add CNL and CPL escape sequences.
|
|
* Calculate last position correctly for UTF-8 wide characters.
|
|
* Add an option allow-rename to disable the window rename escape sequence.
|
|
* Attributes for each type of status-line alert (ie bell, content and
|
|
activity) added. Therefore, remove the superfluous options
|
|
window-status-alert-{attr,bg,fg}.
|
|
* Add a -R flag to send-keys to reset the terminal.
|
|
* Add strings to allow the aixterm bright colours to be used when
|
|
configuring colours.
|
|
* Drop the ability to have a list of keys in the prefix in favour of two
|
|
separate options, prefix and prefix2.
|
|
* Flag -2 added to send-prefix to send the secondary prefix key.
|
|
* Show pane size in top right of display panes mode.
|
|
* Some memory leaks plugged.
|
|
* More command-prompt editing improvements.
|
|
* Various manpage improvements.
|
|
* More Vi mode improvements.
|
|
|
|
CHANGES FROM 1.4 TO 1.5, 09 July 2011
|
|
|
|
* Support xterm mouse modes 1002 and 1003.
|
|
* Change from a per-session stack of buffers to one global stack. This renders
|
|
copy-buffer useless and makes buffer-limit now a server option.
|
|
* Fix most-recently-used choice by avoiding reset the activity timer for
|
|
unattached sessions every second.
|
|
* Add a -P option to new-window and split-window to print the new window or
|
|
pane index in target form (useful to pass it into other commands).
|
|
* Handle a # at the end of a replacement string (such as status-left)
|
|
correctly.
|
|
* Support for UTF-8 mouse input (\033[1005h) which was added in xterm 262.
|
|
If the new mouse-utf8 option is on, UTF-8 mouse input is enabled for all
|
|
UTF-8 terminals. The option defaults to on if LANG etc are set in the same
|
|
manner as the utf8 option.
|
|
* Support for HP-UX.
|
|
* Accept colours of the hex form #ffffff and translate to the nearest from the
|
|
xterm(1) 256-colour set.
|
|
* Clear the non-blocking IO flag (O_NONBLOCK) on the stdio file descriptors
|
|
before closing them (fixes things like "tmux ls && cat").
|
|
* Use TMPDIR if set.
|
|
* Fix next and previous session functions to actually work.
|
|
* Support -x and -y for new-session to specify the initial size of the window
|
|
if created detached with -d.
|
|
* Make bind-key accept characters with the top-bit-set and print them as octal.
|
|
* Set $TMUX without the session when background jobs are run.
|
|
* Simplify the way jobs work and drop the persist type, so all jobs are
|
|
fire-and-forget.
|
|
* Accept tcgetattr/tcsetattr(3) failure, fixes problems with fatal() if the
|
|
terminal disappears while locked.
|
|
* Add a -P option to detach to HUP the client's parent process (usually causing
|
|
it to exit as well).
|
|
* Support passing through escape sequences to the underlying terminal by using
|
|
DCS with a "tmux;" prefix.
|
|
* Prevent tiled producing a corrupt layout when only one column is needed.
|
|
* Give each pane created in a tmux server a unique id (starting from 0), put it
|
|
in the TMUX_PANE environment variable and accept it as a target.
|
|
* Allow a start and end line to be specified for capture-pane which may be
|
|
negative to capture part of the history.
|
|
* Add -a and -s options to lsp to list all panes in the server or session
|
|
respectively. Likewise add -s to lsw.
|
|
* Change -t on display-message to be target-pane for the #[A-Z] replacements
|
|
and add -c as target-client.
|
|
* The attach-session command now prefers the most recently used unattached
|
|
session.
|
|
* Add -s option to detach-client to detach all clients attached to a session.
|
|
* Add -t to list-clients.
|
|
* Change window with mouse wheel over status line if mouse-select-window is on.
|
|
* When mode-mouse is on, automatically enter copy mode when the mouse is
|
|
dragged or the mouse wheel is used. Also exit copy mode when the mouse wheel
|
|
is scrolled off the bottom.
|
|
* Provide #h character pair for short hostname (no domain).
|
|
* Don't use strnvis(3) for the title as it breaks UTF-8.
|
|
* Use the tsl and fsl terminfo(5) capabilities to update terminal title and
|
|
automatically fill them in on terminals with the XT capability (which means
|
|
their title setting is xterm-compatible).
|
|
* Add a new option, mouse-resize-pane. When on, panes may be resized by
|
|
dragging their borders.
|
|
* Fix crash by resetting last pane on {break,swap}-pane across windows.
|
|
* Add three new copy-mode commands - select-line, copy-line, copy-end-of-line.
|
|
* Support setting the xterm clipboard when copying from copy mode using the
|
|
xterm escape sequence for the purpose (if xterm is configured to allow it).
|
|
* Support xterm(1) cursor colour change sequences through terminfo(5) Cc
|
|
(set) and Cr (reset) extensions.
|
|
* Support DECSCUSR sequence to set the cursor style with two new terminfo(5)
|
|
extensions, Cs and Csr.
|
|
* Make the command-prompt custom prompts recognize the status-left option
|
|
character pairs.
|
|
* Add a respawn-pane command.
|
|
* Add a couple of extra xterm-style keys that gnome terminal provides.
|
|
* Allow the initial context on prompts to be set with the new -I option to
|
|
command-prompt. Include the current window and session name in the prompt
|
|
when renaming and add a new key binding ($) for rename session.
|
|
* Option bell-on-alert added to trigger the terminal bell when there is an
|
|
alert.
|
|
* Change the list-keys format so that it shows the keys using actual tmux
|
|
commands which should be able to be directly copied into the config file.
|
|
* Show full targets for lsp/lsw -a.
|
|
* Make confirm-before prompt customizable with -p option like command-prompt
|
|
and add the character pairs #W and #P to the default kill-{pane,window}
|
|
prompts.
|
|
* Avoid sending data to suspended/locked clients.
|
|
* Small memory leaks in error paths plugged.
|
|
* Vi mode improvements.
|
|
|
|
CHANGES FROM 1.3 TO 1.4, 27 December 2010
|
|
|
|
* Window bell reporting fixed.
|
|
* Show which pane is active in the list-panes output.
|
|

|
|
in a different mode.
|
|
* Reset running jobs when the status line is enabled or disabled.
|
|
* Simplify xterm modifier detection.
|
|
* Avoid crashing in copy mode if the screen size is too small for the
|
|
indicator.
|
|
* Flags -n and -p added to switch-client.
|
|
* Use UTF-8 line drawing characters on UTF-8 terminals, thus fixing some
|
|
terminals (eg putty) which disable the vt100 ACS mode switching sequences
|
|
in UTF-8 mode. On terminals without ACS, use ASCII equivalents.
|
|
* New server option exit-unattached added.
|
|
* New session option destroy-unattached added.
|
|
* Fall back on normal session choice method if $TMUX exists but is invalid
|
|
rather than rejecting.
|
|
* Mark repeating keys with "(repeat)" in the key list.
|
|
* When removing a pane, don't change the active pane unless the active pane
|
|
is actually the one being removed.
|
|
* New command last-pane added.
|
|
* AIX fixes.
|
|
* Flag -a added to unbind-key.
|
|
* Add XAUTHORITY to update-environment.
|
|
* More info regarding window and pane flags is now shown in list-*.
|
|
* If VISUAL or EDITOR contains "vi" configure mode-keys and status-key to vi.
|
|
* New window option monitor-silence and session option visual-silence added.
|
|
* In the built-in layouts distribute the panes more evenly.
|
|
* Set the default value of main-pane-width to 80 instead of 81.
|
|
* Command-line flag -V added.
|
|
* Instead of keeping a per-client prompt history make it global.
|
|
* Fix rectangle copy to behave like emacs (the cursor is not part of the
|
|
selection on the right edge but on the left it is).
|
|
* Flag -l added to switch-client.
|
|
* Retrieve environment variables from the global environment rather than
|
|
getenv(3), thus allowing them to be updated during the configuration file.
|
|
* New window options other-pane-{height,width} added.
|
|
* More minor bugs fixed and manpage improvements.
|
|
|
|
CHANGES FROM 1.2 TO 1.3, 18 July 2010
|
|
|
|
* New input parser.
|
|
* Flags to move through panes -UDLR added to select-pane.
|
|
* Commands up-pane, and down-pane removed, since equivalent behaviour is now
|
|
available through the target flag (-t:+ and -t:-).
|
|
* Jump-forward/backward in copy move (based on vi's F, and f commands).
|
|
* Make paste-buffer accept a pane as a target.
|
|
* Flag -a added to new-window to insert a window after an existing one, moving
|
|
windows up if necessary.
|
|
* Merge more mode into copy mode.
|
|
* Run job commands explicitly in the global environment (which can be modified
|
|
with setenv -g), rather than with the environment tmux started with.
|
|
* Use the machine's hostname as the default title, instead of an empty string.
|
|
* Prevent double free if the window option remain-on-exit is set.
|
|
* Key string conversions rewritten.
|
|
* Mark zombie windows as dead in the choose-window list.
|
|
* Tiled layout added.
|
|
* Signal handling reworked.
|
|
* Reset SIGCHLD after fork to fix problems with some shells.
|
|
* Select-prompt command removed. Therefore, bound ' to command-prompt -p index
|
|
"select-window -t:%%" by default.
|
|
* Catch SIGHUP and terminate if running as a client, thus avoiding clients from
|
|
being left hanging around when, for instance, a SSH session is disconnected.
|
|
* Solaris 9 fixes (such as adding compat {get,set}env(3) code).
|
|
* Accept none instead of default for attributes.
|
|

|
|
set.

|
|
* Fix problems with window sizing when starting tmux from .xinitrc.
|
|
* Give tmux sockets (but not the containing folder) group permissions.
|
|
* Extend the target flags (ie -t) to accept an offset (for example -t:+2), and
|
|
make it wrap windows, and panes.
|
|
* New command choose-buffer added.
|
|
* New server option detach-on-destroy to set what happens to a client when the
|
|
session it is attached to is destroyed. If on (default), the client is
|
|
detached. Otherwise, the client is switched to the most recently active of
|
|
the remaining sessions.
|
|
* The commands load-buffer, and save-buffer now accept a dash (-) as the file
|
|
to read from stdin, or write to stdout.
|
|
* Custom layouts added.
|
|
* Additional code reduction, bug fixes, and manpage enhancements.
|
|
|
|
CHANGES FROM 1.1 TO 1.2, 10 March 2010
|
|
|
|
* Switch to libevent.
|
|
* Emulate the ri (reverse index) capability, ergo allowing tmux to at least
|
|
start on Sun consoles (TERM=sun, or sun-color).
|
|
* Assign each entry a number, or lowercase letter in choose mode, and accept
|
|
that as a shortcut key.
|
|
* Permit top-bit-set characters to be entered in the status line.
|
|
* Mark no-prefix keys with (no prefix), rather than [] in list-keys.
|
|
* New command show-messages (alias showmsgs), and new session option
|
|
message-limit, to show a per-client log of status lines messages up to the
|
|
number defined by message-limit.
|
|
* Do not interpret #() for display-message to avoid leaking commands.
|
|
* New window options window-status-format, and window-status-current-format to
|
|
control the format of each window in the status line.
|
|
* Add a -p flag to display-message to print the output, instead of displaying
|
|
it in the status line.
|
|
* Emulate il1, dl1, ich1 to run with vt100 feature set.
|
|
* New command capture-pane (alias capturep) to copy the entire pane contents
|
|
to a paste buffer.
|
|
* Avoid duplicating code by adding a -w flag to set-option, and show-options to
|
|
set, and show window options. The commands set-window-option, and
|
|
show-window-options are now aliases.
|
|
* Panes can now be referred to as top, bottom, top-left, etc.
|
|
* Add server-wide options, which can be set with set-option -s, and shown with
|
|
show-options -s.
|
|
* New server option quiet (like -q from the command line).
|
|
* New server option escape-time to set the timeout used to detect if escapes
|
|
are alone, part of a function key, or meta sequence.

|
* Make split-window accept a pane target, instead of a window.
|
|

|
|
the space (the opposite of break-pane), thus simplifying calls to
|
|
split-window, followed by move-window.
|
|
* Permit S- prefix on keys for shift when the terminal/terminfo supports them.
|
|
* Window targets (-t flag) can now refer to the last window (!), next (+), and
|
|
previous (-) window by number.
|
|
* Mode keys to jump to the bottom/top of history, end of the next word, scroll
|
|
up/down, and reverse search in copy mode.
|
|
* New session option display-panes-active-colour to display the active pane in
|
|
a different colour with the display-panes command.
|
|
* Read the socket path from $TMUX if it's present, and -L, and -S are not
|
|
given.
|
|
* Vi-style mode keys B, W, and E to navigate between words in copy mode.
|
|
* Start in more mode when configuration file errors are detected.

|
|
* utf8 improvements.
|
|
* As usual, additional code reduction, bug fixes, and manpage enhancements.
|
|
|
|
CHANGES FROM 1.0 TO 1.1, 05 November 2009
|
|
|
|
* New run-shell (alias run) command to run an external command without a
|
|
window, capture it's stdout, and send it to output mode.
|
|
* Ability to define multiple prefix keys.
|
|
* Internal locking mechanism removed. Instead, detach each client and run the
|
|
external command specified in the new session option lock-command (by default
|
|
lock -np), thus allowing the system password to be used.
|
|
* set-password command, and -U command line flag removed per the above change.
|
|
* Add support for -c command line flag to execute a shell command.
|
|
* New lock-client (alias lockc), and lock-session (alias locks) commands to
|
|
lock a particular client, or all clients attached to a session.
|
|
* Support C-n/C-p/C-v/M-v with emacs keys in choice mode.
|
|
* Use : for goto line rather than g in vi mode.
|
|
* Try to guess which client to use when no target client was specified. Finds
|
|
the current session, and if only one client is present, use it. Otherwise,
|
|
return the most recently used client.
|
|
* Make C-Down/C-Up in copy mode scroll the screen down/up one line without
|
|
moving the cursor.
|
|
* Scroll mode superseded by copy mode.
|
|
* New synchronize-panes window option to send all input to all other panes in
|
|
the same window.
|
|
* New lock-server session option to lock, when off (on by default), each
|
|
session 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 setting.
|
|
* Add support for grouped sessions which have independent name, options,
|
|
current window, but where the linked windows are synchronized (ie creating,
|
|
killing windows are mirrored between the sessions). A grouped session may be
|
|
created by passing -t to new-session.
|
|
* New mouse-select-pane session option to select the current pane with the
|
|
mouse.
|
|
* Queue, and run commands in the background for if-shell, status-left,
|
|
status-right, and #() by starting each once every status-interval. Adds the
|
|
capability to call some programs which would previously cause the server to
|
|
hang (eg sleep/tmux). It also avoids running commands excessively (ie if used
|
|
multiple times, it will be run only once).
|
|
* When a window is zombified and automatic-rename is on, append [dead] to the
|
|
name.
|
|
* Split list-panes (alias lsp) off from list-windows.
|
|
* New pipe-pane (alias pipep) to redirect a pane output to an external command.
|
|
* Support for automatic-renames for Solaris.
|
|
* Permit attributes to be turned off in #[] by prefixing with no (eg nobright).
|
|
* Add H/M/L in vi mode, and M-R/M-r in emacs to move the cursor to the top,
|
|
middle, and bottom of the screen.
|
|
* -a option added to kill-pane to kill all except current pane.
|
|
* The -d command line flag is now gone (can be replaced by terminal-overrides).
|
|
Just use op/AX to detect default colours.
|
|
* input/tty/utf8 improvements.
|
|
* xterm-keys rewrite.
|
|
* Additional code reduction, and bug fixes.
|
|
|
|

* Option to request multiple responses when using command-prompt.
|
|
* Improved environment handling.

|
|
* Set the utf8 and status-utf8 options when the server is started with -u.
|
|
* display-message command to show a message in the status line, by default some
|
|
information about the current window.
|
|
* Improved current process detection on NetBSD.
|
|
* unlink-window -k is now the same as kill-window.
|
|
* attach-session now works from inside tmux.
|
|
* A system-wide configuration file, /etc/tmux.conf.
|
|
* A number of new commands in copy mode, including searching.
|
|
* Panes are now specified using the target (-t) notation.
|
|
* -t now accepts fnmatch(3) patterns and looks for prefixes.
|
|
* Translate \r into \n when pasting.
|
|
* Support for binding commands to keys without the prefix key
|
|
* Support for alternate screen (terminfo smcup/rmcup).
|
|
* Maintain data that goes off screen after reducing the window size, so it can
|
|
be restored when the size is increased again.
|
|
* New if-shell command to test a shell command before running a tmux command.
|
|
* tmux now works as the shell.
|
|
* Man page reorganisation.
|
|
* Many minor additions, much code tidying and several bug fixes.
|
|
|
|
CHANGES FROM 0.8 TO 0.9, 01 July 2009
|
|
|
|
* Major changes to build infrastructure: cleanup of makefiles and addition
|
|
of a configure script.
|
|
* monitor-content window option to monitor a window for a specific fnmatch(3)
|
|
pattern. The find-window command also now accepts fnmatch(3) patterns.
|
|
* previous-layout and select-layout commands, and a main-horizontal layout.
|
|
* Recreate the server socket on SIGUSR1.
|
|
* clear-history command.
|
|
* Use ACS line drawing characters for pane separator lines.
|
|
* UTF-8 improvements, and code to detect UTF-8 support by looking at
|
|
environment variables.
|
|
* The resize-pane-up and resize-pane-down commands are now merged together
|
|
into a new resize-pane command with -U and -D flags.
|
|
* confirm-before command to request a yes/no answer before executing dangerous
|
|
commands.
|
|
* Status line bug fixes, support for UTF-8 (status-utf8 option), and a key to
|
|
paste from the paste buffer.
|
|
* Support for some additional escape sequences and terminal features, including
|
|
better support for insert mode and tab stops.
|
|
* Improved window resizing behaviour, modelled after xterm.
|
|
* Some code reduction and a number of miscellaneous bug fixes.
|
|

================================================================================
|
|
|
|
On 01 June 2009, tmux was imported into the OpenBSD base system. From this date
|
|
onward changes are logged as part of the normal CVS commit message to either
|
|
OpenBSD or SourceForge CVS. This file will be updated to contain a summary of
|
|
major changes with each release, and to mention important configuration or
|
|
command syntax changes during development.
|
|
|
|
The list of older changes is below.
|
|
|
|
================================================================================
|
|
|
|
21 May 2009
|
|
|
|
* stat(2) files before trying to load them to avoid problems, for example
|
|
with "source-file /dev/zero".
|
|
|
|
19 May 2009
|
|
|
|
* Try to guess if the window is UTF-8 by outputting a three-byte UTF-8 wide
|
|
character and seeing how much the cursor moves. Currently tries to figure out
|
|
if this works by some stupid checks on the terminal, these need to be
|
|
rethought. Also might be better using a width 1 character rather than width 2.
|
|
* If LANG contains "UTF-8", assume the terminal supports UTF-8, on the grounds
|
|
that anyone who configures it probably wants UTF-8. Not certain if this is
|
|
a perfect idea but let's see if it causes any problems.
|
|
* New window option: monitor-content. Searches for a string in a window and if
|
|
it matches, highlight the status line.
|
|
|
|
18 May 2009
|
|
|
|
* main-horizontal layout and main-pane-height option to match vertical.
|
|
* New window option main-pane-width to set the width of the large left pane with
|
|
main-vertical (was left-vertical) layout.
|
|
* Lots of layout cleanup. manual layout is now manual-vertical.
|
|
|
|
16 May 2009
|
|
|
|
* select-layout command and a few default key bindings (M-0, M-1, M-2, M-9) to
|
|
select layouts.
|
|
* Recreate server socket on SIGUSR1, per SF feature request 2792533.
|
|
|
|
14 May 2009
|
|
|
|
* Keys in status line (p in vi mode, M-y in emacs) to paste the first line
|
|
of the upper paste buffer. Suggested by Dan Colish.
|
|
* clear-history command to clear a pane's history.
|
|
* Don't force wrapping with \n when asked, let the cursor code figure it out.
|
|
Should fix terminals which use this to detect line breaks.
|
|
* Major cleanup and restructuring of build infrastructure. Still separate files
|
|
for GNU and BSD make, but they are now hugely simplified at the expense of
|
|
adding a configure script which must be run before make. Now build and
|
|
install with:
|
|
|
|
$ ./configure && make && sudo make install
|
|
|
|
04 May 2009
|
|
|
|
* Use ACS line drawing characters for pane separator lines.
|
|
|
|
30 April 2009
|
|
|
|
* Support command sequences without a space before the semicolon, for example
|
|
"neww; neww" now works as well as "neww ; neww". "neww;neww" is still an
|
|
error.
|
|
* previous-layout command.
|
|
* Display the layout name in window lists.
|
|
* Merge resize-pane-up and resize-pane-down into resize-pane with -U and -D
|
|
flags.
|
|
|
|
29 April 2009
|
|
|
|
* Get rid of compat/vis.* - only one function was used which is easily
|
|
replaced,and less compat code == good.
|
|
|
|
27 April 2009
|
|
|
|
* Avoid using the prompt history when the server is locked, and prevent any
|
|
input entered from being added to the client's prompt history.
|
|
* New command, confirm-before (alias confirm), which asks for confirmation
|
|
before executing a command. Bound "&" and "x" by default to confirm-before
|
|
"kill-window" and confirm-before "kill-pane", respectively.
|
|
|
|
23 April 2009
|
|
|
|
* Support NEL, yet another way of making newline. Fixes the output from some
|
|
Gentoo packaging thing. Reported by someone on SF then logs that allowed a
|
|
fix sent by tcunha.
|
|
* Use the xenl terminfo flag to detect early-wrap terminals like the FreeBSD
|
|
console. Many thanks for a very informative email from Christian Weisgerber.
|
|
|
|
21 April 2009
|
|
|
|
* tmux 0.8 released.
|
|
|
|
17 April 2009
|
|
|
|
* Remove the right number of characters from the buffer when escape then
|
|
a cursor key (or other key prefixed by \033) is pressed. Reported by
|
|
Stuart Henderson.
|
|
|
|
03 April 2009
|
|
|
|
* rotate-window command. -U flag (default) for up, -D flag for down.
|
|
|
|
02 April 2009
|
|
|
|
* Change scroll/pane redraws to only redraw the single pane affected rather
|
|
than the entire window.
|
|
* If redrawing the region would mean redrawing > half the pane, just schedule
|
|
to redraw the entire window. Also add a flag to skip updating the window any
|
|
further if it is scheduled to be redrawn. This has the effect of batching
|
|
multiple redraws together.
|
|
|
|
01 April 2009
|
|
|
|
* Basic horizontal splitting and layout management. Still some redraw and other
|
|
issues - particularly, don't mix with manual pane resizing, be careful when
|
|
viewing from multiple clients and don't expect shell windows to redraw very
|
|
well after the layout is changed; generally cycling the layout a few times
|
|
will fix most problems. Getting this in for testing while I think about how
|
|
to deal with manual mode.
|
|
|
|
Split window as normal and cycle the layouts with C-b space. Some of the
|
|
layouts will work better when swap-pane comes along.
|
|
|
|
31 March 2009
|
|
|
|
* AIX port, thanks to cmihai for access to a box. Only tested on 6.1 with xlc
|
|
10.1 (make sure CC is set). Needs GNU make and probably ncurses (didn't try
|
|
plain curses). Also won't build with DEBUG, so comment the FDEBUG=1 line in
|
|
GNUmakefile.
|
|
* Draw a vertical line on the right when the window size is less than the
|
|
terminal size. This is partly to shake out any horizontal limit bugs on the
|
|
way to horizontal splitting/pane tiling. Currently a bit slow since it has to
|
|
do a lot of redrawing but hopefully that will improve as I get some better
|
|
ideas for how to do it.
|
|
* Fix remaining problems with copy and paste and UTF-8.
|
|
|
|
28 March 2009
|
|
|
|
* Better UTF-8 support, including combined characters. Unicode data is now
|
|
stored as UTF-8 in a separate array, the code does a lookup into this every
|
|
time it gets to a UTF-8 cell. Zero width characters are just appended onto
|
|
the UTF-8 data for the previous cell. This also means that almost no bytes
|
|
extra are wasted non-Unicode data (yay).
|
|
|
|
Still some oddities, such as copy mode skips over wide characters in a
|
|
strange way, and the code could do with some tidying.
|
|
* Key repeating is now a property of the key binding not of the command.
|
|
Repeat is turned on when the key is bound with the -r flag to bind-key.
|
|
next/previous-window no longer repeat by default as it turned out to annoy
|
|
me.
|
|
|
|
27 March 2009
|
|
|
|
* Clear using ED when redrawing the screen. I foolishly assumed using spaces
|
|
would be equivalent and terminals would pick up on this, but apparently not.
|
|
This fixes copy and paste in xterm/rxvt.
|
|
* Sockets in /tmp are now created in a subdirectory named, tmux-UID, eg
|
|
tmux-1000. The default socket is thus /tmp/tmux-UID/default. To start a
|
|
separate server, the new -L command line option should be used: this creates
|
|
a socket in the same directory with a different name ("-L main" will create
|
|
socket called "main"). -S should only be used to place the socket outside
|
|
/tmp. This makes sockets a little more secure and a bit more convenient to
|
|
use multiple servers.
|
|
|
|
21 March 2009
|
|
|
|
* New session flag "set-remain-on-exit" to set remain-on-exit flag for new
|
|
windows created in that session (like "remain-by-default" used to do). Not
|
|
perfectly happy about this, but until I can think of a good way to introduce
|
|
it generically (maybe a set of options in the session) this will do. Fixes
|
|
SF request 2527847.
|
|
|
|
07 March 2009
|
|
|
|
* Support for 88 colour terminals.
|
|
* break-pane command to create a new window using an existing pane.
|
|
|
|
02 March 2009
|
|
|
|
* Make escape key timer work properly so escape+key can be used without
|
|
lightning fast key presses.
|
|
|
|
13 February 2009
|
|
|
|
* Redo mode keys slightly more cleanly and apply them to command prompt
|
|
editing. vi or emacs mode is controlled by the session option status-keys.
|
|
|
|
12 February 2009
|
|
|
|
* Looking up argv[0] is expensive, so just use p_comm for the window name which
|
|
is good enough. Also increase name update time to 500 ms.
|
|
|
|
11 February 2009
|
|
|
|
* Only use ri when actually at the top of the screen; just move the cursor up
|
|
otherwise.
|
|
* FreeBSD's console wraps lines at $COLUMNS - 1 rather than $COLUMNS (the
|
|
cursor can never be beyond $COLUMNS - 1) and does not appear to support
|
|
changing this behaviour, or any of the obvious possibilities (turning off
|
|
right margin wrapping, insert mode). This is irritating, most notably because
|
|
it impossible to write to the very bottom-right of the screen without
|
|
scrolling. To work around this, if built on FreeBSD and run with a "cons"
|
|
$TERM, the bottom-right cell on the screen is omitted.
|
|
* Emulate scroll regions (slowly) to support the few terminals which don't have
|
|
it (some of which don't really have any excuse).
|
|
|
|
10 February 2009
|
|
|
|
* No longer redraw the status line every status-interval unless it has actually
|
|
changed.
|
|
|
|
08 February 2009
|
|
|
|
* Don't treat empty arguments ("") differently when parsing configuration
|
|
file/command prompt rather than command line.
|
|
* tmux 0.7 released.
|
|
|
|
03 February 2009
|
|
|
|
* New command, copy-buffer (alias copyb), to copy a session paste buffer to
|
|
another session.
|
|
|
|
01 February 2009
|
|
|
|
* The character pair #(command) may now contain (escaped) right parenthesis.
|
|
|
|
30 January 2009
|
|
|
|
* . now bound to "command-prompt 'move-window %%'" by default, from joshe.
|
|
|
|
29 January 2009
|
|
|
|
* Window options to set status line fg, bg and attributes for a single
|
|
window. Options are: window-status-fg, window-status-bg,
|
|
window-status-attr. Set to "default" to use the session status colours.
|
|
|
|
This allows quite neat things like:
|
|
|
|
$ cat ~/bin/xssh
|
|
#!/bin/sh
|
|
|
|
if [ ! -z "$TMUX" ]; then
|
|
case "$1" in
|
|
natalya)
|
|
tmux setw window-status-fg red >/dev/null
|
|
;;
|
|
natasha)
|
|
tmux setw window-status-fg yellow >/dev/null
|
|
;;
|
|
esac
|
|
fi
|
|
ssh "$@"
|
|
[ ! -z "$TMUX" ] && tmux setw -u window-status-fg >/dev/null
|
|
$ alias ssh="~/bin/xssh"
|
|
|
|
* Support #(command) in status-left, and status-right, which is displayed as
|
|
the first line of command's output (e.g. set -g status-right
|
|
"#(whoami)@#(hostname -s)"). Commands with )s aren't supported.
|
|
|
|
28 January 2009
|
|
|
|
* Support mouse in copy mode to move cursor. Can't do anything else at the
|
|
moment until other mouse modes are handled.
|
|
* Better support for at least the most common variant of mouse input: parse it
|
|
and adjust for different panes. Also support mouse in window/session choice
|
|
mode.
|
|
|
|
27 January 2009
|
|
|
|
* Bring back the fancy window titles with session/window names: it is easy to
|
|
work around problems with elinks (see FAQ).
|
|
* -u flag to scroll-mode and copy-mode to start scrolled one page
|
|
up. scroll-mode -u is bound to prefix,page-up (ppage) by default.
|
|
* Allow status, mode and message attributes to be changed by three new options:
|
|
status-attr, mode-attr, message-attr. A comma-separated list is accepted
|
|
containing: bright, dim, underscore, blink, reverse, hidden, italics, for
|
|
example:
|
|
|
|
set -g status-attr bright,blink
|
|
|
|
From Josh Elsasser, thanks!
|
|
|
|
26 January 2009
|
|
|
|
* Be more clever about picking the right process to create the window name.
|
|
* Don't balls up the terminal on UTF-8 combined characters. Don't support them
|
|
properly either - they are just discarded for the moment.
|
|
|
|
25 January 2009
|
|
|
|
* load-buffer command
|
|
|
|
23 January 2009
|
|
|
|
* Use reverse colours rather than swapping fg and bg for message, mode and
|
|
status line. This makes these usable on black and white terminals.
|
|
* Better error messages when creating a session or window fails.
|
|
* Oops. Return non-zero on error. Reported by Will Maier.
|
|
|
|
21 January 2009
|
|
|
|
* Handle SIGTERM (and kill-server which uses it), a bit more neatly - tidy
|
|
up properly and print a nicer message. Same effect though :-).
|
|
* new-window now supports -k to kill target window if it exists.
|
|
* Bring back split-window -p and -l options to specify the height a percentage
|
|
or as a number of lines.
|
|
* Make window and session choice modes allow you to choose items in vi keys
|
|
mode (doh!). As a side-effect, this makes enter copy selection (as well
|
|
as C-w/M-w) when using emacs keys in copy mode. Reported by merdely.
|
|
|
|
20 January 2009
|
|
|
|
* Darwin support for automatic-rename from joshe; Darwin doesn't seem to have
|
|
a sane method of getting argv[0] and searching for the precise insane way
|
|
is too frustrating, so this just uses the executable name.
|
|
* Try to change the window title to match the command running it in. This is
|
|
done by reading argv[0] from the process group leader of the group that owns
|
|
the tty (tcgetpgrp()). This can't be done portably so some OS-dependent code
|
|
is introduced (ugh); OpenBSD, FreeBSD and Linux are supported at the moment.
|
|
|
|
A new window flag, automatic-rename, is available: if this is set to off, the
|
|
window name is not changed. Specifying a name with the new-window,
|
|
new-session or rename-window commands will automatically set this flag to off
|
|
for the window in question. To disable it entirely set the option to off
|
|
globally (setw -g automatic-rename off).
|
|
|
|
19 January 2009
|
|
|
|
* Fix various stupid issues when the status line is turned off. Grr.
|
|
* Use reverse attributes for clock and cursor, otherwise they do not
|
|
appear on black and white terminals.
|
|
* An error in a command sequence now stops execution of that sequence.
|
|
Internally, each command code now passes a return code back rather than
|
|
talking to the calling client (if any) directly.
|
|
* attach-session now tries to start the server if it isn't already started - if
|
|
no sessions are created in .tmux.conf this will cause an error.
|
|
* Clean up starting server by making initial client get a special socketpair.
|
|
|
|
18 January 2009
|
|
|
|
* Unbreak UTF-8.
|
|
* -a flag to next-window and previous-window to select the next or previous
|
|
window with activity or bell. Bound to M-n and M-p.
|
|
* find-window command to search window names, titles and visible content (but
|
|
not history) for a string. If only one is found, the window is selected
|
|
otherwise a choice list is shown. This (as with the other choice commands)
|
|
only works from a key. Bound to "f" by default.
|
|
* Cleaned up command printing code, also enclose arguments with spaces in "s.
|
|
* Added command sequences. These are entered by separating each argument by a ;
|
|
argument (spaces on both sides), for example:
|
|
|
|
lsk ; lsc
|
|
|
|
To use a literal ; as the argument prefix it with \, for example:
|
|
|
|
bind x lsk \; lsc
|
|
|
|
Commands are executed from left to right. Also note that command sequences do
|
|
not support repeat-time repetition unless all commands making up the sequence
|
|
support it.
|
|
* suspend-client command to suspend a client. Don't try to background it
|
|
though...
|
|
* Mark attached sessions in sessions lists. Suggested by Simon Kuhnle.
|
|
|
|
17 January 2009
|
|
|
|
* tmux 0.6 released.
|
|
|
|
15 January 2009
|
|
|
|
* Support #H for hostname and #S for session name in status-left/right.
|
|
* Two new commands, choose-window and choose-session which work only when bound
|
|
to a key and allow the window or session to be selected from a list. These
|
|
are now bound to "w" and "s" instead of the list commands.
|
|
|
|
14 January 2009
|
|
|
|
* Rework the prefix-time stuff. The option is now called repeat-time and
|
|
defaults to 500 ms. It only applies to a small subset of commands, currently:
|
|
up-pane, down-pane, next-window, previous-window, resize-pane-up,
|
|
resize-pane-down. These are the commands for which it is obviously useful,
|
|
having it for everything else was just bloody annoying.
|
|
* The alt-up and alt-down keys now resize a pane by five lines at a time.
|
|
* switch-pane is now select-pane and requires -p to select a pane. The
|
|
"o" key binding is changed to down-pane.
|
|
* up-pane and down-pane commands, bound to arrow up and down by default.
|
|
* Multiple vertical window splitting. Minimum pane size is four lines, an
|
|
(unhelpful) error will be shown if attempting to split a window with less
|
|
that eight lines. If the window is resized, as many panes are shown as can
|
|
fit without reducing them below four lines. There is (currently!) not a way
|
|
to show a hidden pane without making the window larger.
|
|
|
|
Note the -p and -l options to split-window are now gone, these may reappear
|
|
once I think them through again.
|
|
* Server locking on inactivity (lock-after-time) is now disabled by default.
|
|
|
|
13 January 2009
|
|
|
|
* kill-pane command.
|
|
|
|
12 January 2009
|
|
|
|
* command-prompt now accepts a single argument, a template string. Any
|
|
occurrences of %% in this string are replaced by whatever is entered at the
|
|
prompt and the result is executed as a command. This allows things like (now
|
|
bound by default):
|
|
|
|
bind , command-prompt "rename-window %%"
|
|
|
|
Or my favourite:
|
|
|
|
bind x command-prompt "split-window 'man %%'"
|
|
|
|
* Option to set prefix time, allowing multiple commands to be entered without
|
|
pressing the prefix key again, so long as they each typed within this time of
|
|
each other.
|
|
* Yet more hacks for key handling. Think it is just about working now.
|
|
* Two commands, resize-pane-up and resize-pane-down to resize a pane.
|
|
* Make the window pane code handle panes of different sizes, and add a -l
|
|
and -p arguments to split-window to specify the new window size in lines
|
|
or as a percentage.
|
|
|
|
11 January 2009
|
|
|
|
* Vertical window splitting. Currently can only split a window into two panes.
|
|
New split-window command splits (bound to ") and switch-pane command (bound to
|
|
o) switches between panes.
|
|
|
|
close-pane, swap-pane commands are to follow. Also to come are pane resizing,
|
|
>2 panes, the ability to break a pane out to a full window and vice versa and
|
|
possibly horizontal splitting.
|
|
|
|
Panes are subelements of windows rather than being windows in their own
|
|
right. I tried to make them windows (so the splitting was at the session or
|
|
client level) but this rapidly became very complex and invasive. So in the
|
|
interests of having something working, I just made it so each window can have
|
|
two child processes instead of one (and it still took me 12 hours straight
|
|
coding). Now the concept is proven and much of the support code is there,
|
|
this may change in future if more flexibility is needed.
|
|
* save-buffer command, from Tiago Cunha.
|
|
|
|
10 January 2009
|
|
|
|
* New option, lock-after-time. If there is no activity in the period specified
|
|
by this option (in seconds), tmux will lock the server. Default is 1800 (30
|
|
minutes), set to 0 to disable.
|
|
* Server locking. Two new commands: set-password to set a password (a
|
|
preencrypted password may be specified with -c); and lock-server to lock the
|
|
server until the password is entered. Also an additional command line flag,
|
|
-U, to unlock from the shell. The default password is blank (any password
|
|
accepted). If specifying an encrypted password from encrypt(1) in .tmux.conf
|
|
with -c, don't forget to enclose it in single-quotes (') to prevent shell
|
|
variable expansion.
|
|
* If a window is created from the command line, tmux will now use the same
|
|
current working directory for the new process. A new default-path option to
|
|
sets the working directory for processes created from keys or interactively
|
|
from the prompt.
|
|
* New mode to display a large clock. Entered with clock-mode command (bound to
|
|
C-b t by default); two window options: clock-mode-colour and clock-mode-style
|
|
(12 or 24). This will probably be used as the basis for window locking.
|
|
* New command, server-info, to show some server information and terminal
|
|
details.
|
|
|
|
09 January 2009
|
|
|
|
* Stop using ncurses variables and instead build a table of the codes we want
|
|
into an array for each terminal type. This makes the code a little more
|
|
untidy in places but gets rid of the awful global variables and calling
|
|
setterm all the time, and shoves all the ncurses-dependent mess into a single
|
|
file, tty-term.c. It also allows overriding single terminal codes, this is
|
|
used to fix rxvt on some platforms (where it is missing dch) and in future
|
|
may allow user customisation a la vim.
|
|
* Update key handling code. Simplify, support ctrl properly and add a new
|
|
window option (xterm-keys) to output xterm key codes including ctrl and,
|
|
if available, alt and shift.
|
|
|
|
08 January 2009
|
|
|
|
* If built without DEBUG (the release versions), don't cause a fatal error if
|
|
the grid functions notice an input error, just log and ignore the
|
|
request. This might mean me getting shouted at less often when bugs kill
|
|
long-running sessions, at least in release versions.
|
|
* Hopefully fix cursor out-of-bounds checking when writing to grid. When I
|
|
wrote the code I must have forgotten that the cursor can be one cell off the
|
|
right of the screen (yes, I know), so there were number of out-of-bounds/
|
|
overflow problems.
|
|
|
|
07 January 2009
|
|
|
|
* New flag to set and setw, -u, to unset an option (allowing it to inherit from)
|
|
the global options again.
|
|
* Added more info messages for options changes.
|
|
* A bit of tidying and reorganisation of options code.
|
|
|
|
06 January 2009
|
|
|
|
* Don't crash when backspacing if cursor is off the right of the screen,
|
|
reported by David Chisnall.
|
|
* Complete words at any point inside command in prompt, also use option name
|
|
as well as command names.
|
|
* Per-client prompt history of up to 100 items.
|
|
* Use a splay tree for key bindings instead of an array. As a side-effect this
|
|
sorts them when listed.
|
|
|
|
22 December 2008
|
|
|
|
* Use the right keys for home and end.
|
|
|
|
20 December 2008
|
|
|
|
* Add vim mode for tmux configuration file to examples/, from Tiago Cunha.
|
|
|
|
15 December 2008
|
|
|
|
* New command, source-file (alias source), to load a configuration
|
|
file. Written by Tiago Cunha, many thanks.
|
|
|
|
13 December 2008
|
|
|
|
* Work around lack of dch. On Linux, the rxvt termcap doesn't have it (it is
|
|
lying, but we can't really start disbelieving termcaps...). This is a bit
|
|
horrible - I can see no way to do it without pretty much redrawing the whole
|
|
line, but it works...
|
|
|
|
10 December 2008
|
|
|
|
* glibc's getopt(3) is useless: it is not POSIX compliant without jumping
|
|
through non-portable hoops, and the method of resetting it is unclear (the
|
|
man page on my system says set optind to 1, but other sources say 0). So,
|
|
import OpenBSD's getopt_long.c into compat/ for use on Linux and use the
|
|
clearly documented optreset = optind = 1 method. This fixes some strange
|
|
issues with command parsing (getting the syntax wrong would prevent any
|
|
further commands being parsed).
|
|
|
|
06 December 2008
|
|
|
|
* Bring set/setw/show/showw into line with other commands. This means that by
|
|
default they now affect the current window (if any); the new -g flag must be
|
|
passed to set the global options. This changes the behaviour of set/show and
|
|
WILL BREAK CURRENT CONFIGURATIONS.
|
|
|
|
In summary, whether in the configuration file, the command prompt, or a key
|
|
binding, use -g to set a global option, use -t to specify a particular window
|
|
or session, or omit both to try and use the current window or session.
|
|
|
|
This makes set/show a bit of a pain but is the correct behaviour for
|
|
setw/showw and is the same as every other command, so we can put up with a
|
|
bit of pain for consistency.
|
|
* Redo window options. They now work in the same way to session options with a
|
|
global options set. showw/setw commands now have similar syntax to show/set
|
|
(including the ability to use abbreviations).
|
|
|
|
PLEASE NOTE this includes the following configuration-breaking changes:
|
|
|
|
- remain-by-default is now GONE, use "setw -g remain-on-exit" to apply the
|
|
global window option instead;
|
|
- mode-keys is now a window option rather than session - use "setw [-g]
|
|
mode-keys" instead of set.
|
|
|
|
There are also some additions:
|
|
|
|
- message-fg and message-bg session options to control status line message
|
|
colours;
|
|
- mode-fg and mode-bg window options to set colours in window modes such as
|
|
copy mode.
|
|
|
|
The options code still a mess and now there is twice as much of it :-(.
|
|
|
|
02 December 2008
|
|
|
|
* Add support for including the window title in status-left or status-right
|
|
strings by including the character pair "#T". This may be prefixed with
|
|
a number to specify a maximum length, for example "#24T" to use at most
|
|
24 characters of the title.
|
|
* Introduce two new options, status-left-length and status-right-length,
|
|
control the maximum length of left and right components of the status bar.
|
|
* elinks (and possibly others) bypass the terminal and talk directly to X to
|
|
restore the window title when exiting. tmux can't know about this particular
|
|
bit of stupidity so the title ends up strange - the prefix isn't terribly
|
|
important and elinks is quite useful so just get rid of it.
|
|
|
|
27 November 2008
|
|
|
|
* Tweaks to support Dragonfly.
|
|
|
|
17 November 2008
|
|
|
|
* tmux 0.5 released.
|
|
|
|
16 November 2008
|
|
|
|
* New window option: "utf8"; this must be on (it is off by default) for UTF-8
|
|
to be parsed. The global/session option "utf8-default" controls the setting
|
|
for new windows.
|
|
|
|
This means that by default tmux does not handle UTF-8. To use UTF-8 by
|
|
default it is necessary to a) "set utf8-default on" in .tmux.conf b) start
|
|
tmux with -u on any terminal which support UTF-8.
|
|
|
|
It seems a bit unnecessary for this to be a per-window option but that is
|
|
the easiest way to do it, and it can't do any harm...
|
|
* Enable default colours if op contains \033[39;49m, based on a report from
|
|
fulvio ciriaco.
|
|
|
|
12 November 2008
|
|
|
|
* Keep stack of last windows rather than just most recent; based on a diff from
|
|
joshe.
|
|
|
|
04 November 2008
|
|
|
|
* Don't try to redraw status line when showing a prompt or message; if it does,
|
|
the status timer is never reset so it redraws on every loop. Spotted by
|
|
joshe.
|
|
|
|
09 October 2008
|
|
|
|
* Translate 256 colours into 16 if 256 is not available, same as screen does.
|
|
* Better support for OSC command (only to set window title now), and also
|
|
support using APC for the same purpose (some Linux default shell profiles do
|
|
this).
|
|
|
|
25 September 2008
|
|
|
|
* Large internal rewrite to better support 256 colours and UTF-8. Screen data
|
|
is now stored as single two-way array of structures rather than as multiple
|
|
separate arrays. Also simplified a lot of code.
|
|
|
|
Only external changes are three new flags, -2, -d and -u, which force tmux to
|
|
assume the terminal supports 256 colours, default colours (useful for
|
|
xterm-256color which lacks the AX flag), or UTF-8 respectively.
|
|
|
|
10 September 2008
|
|
|
|
* Split off colour conversion code from screen code.
|
|
|
|
09 September 2008
|
|
|
|
* Initial UTF-8 support. A bit ugly and with a limit of 4096 UTF-8
|
|
characters per window.
|
|
|
|
08 September 2008
|
|
|
|
* 256 colour support. tmux attempts to autodetect the terminal by looking
|
|
both at what ncurses reports (usually wrong for xterm) and checking if
|
|
the TERM contains "256col". For xterm TERM=xterm-256color is needed (as
|
|
well as a build that support 256 colours); this seems to work for rxvt
|
|
as well. On non-256 colour terminals, high colours are translated to white
|
|
foreground and black background.
|
|
|
|
28 August 2008
|
|
|
|
* Support OS X/Darwin thanks to bsd-poll.c from OpenSSH. Also convert
|
|
from clock_gettime(2) to gettimeofday(2) as OS X doesn't support the
|
|
former; microsecond accuracy will have to be sufficient ;-).
|
|
|
|
07 August 2008
|
|
|
|
* Lose some unused/useless wrapper functions.
|
|
|
|
25 July 2008
|
|
|
|
* Shell variables may now be defined and used in configuration file. Define
|
|
variables with:
|
|
|
|
VAR=1
|
|
|
|
And use with:
|
|
|
|
renamew ${VAR}
|
|
renamew "x${VAR}x"
|
|
|
|
Also some other fixes to make, for example, "abc""abc" work similarly to
|
|
the shell.
|
|
|
|
24 July 2008
|
|
|
|
* Finally lose inconsistently-used SCREEN_DEF* defines.
|
|
* If cursor mode is on, switch the arrow keys from \033[A to \033OA.
|
|
* Support the numeric keypad in both application and numbers mode. This is
|
|
different from screen which always keeps it in application mode.
|
|
|
|
19 July 2008
|
|
|
|
* Unbreak "set status" - tmux thought it was ambiguous, reported by rivo nurges.
|
|
|
|
02 July 2008
|
|
|
|
* Split vi and emacs mode keys into two tables and add an option (mode-keys)
|
|
to select between them. Default is emacs, use,
|
|
|
|
tmux set mode-keys vi
|
|
|
|
to change to vi.
|
|
|
|
vi mode uses space to start selection, enter to copy selection and escape
|
|
to clear selection.
|
|
|
|
01 July 2008
|
|
|
|
* Protocol versioning. Clients which identify as a different version from the
|
|
server will be rejected.
|
|
* tmux 0.4 released.
|
|
|
|
29 June 2008
|
|
|
|
* Zombie windows. These are not closed when the child process dies. May be
|
|
set for a window with the new "remain-on-exit" option; the default setting
|
|
of this flag for new windows may be set with the "remain-by-default" session
|
|
option.
|
|
|
|
A window may be restarted with the respawn-window command:
|
|
|
|
respawn-window [-k] [command]
|
|
|
|
If -k is given, any existing process running in the window is killed;
|
|
if command is omitted, the same command as when the window was first
|
|
created is used.
|
|
|
|
27 June 2008
|
|
|
|
* Handle nonexistent session or client to -t properly.
|
|
|
|
25 June 2008
|
|
|
|
* select-prompt command to allow a window to be selected at a prompt. Only
|
|
windows in the current session may be selected. Bound to ' by default.
|
|
Suggested by merdely.
|
|
* move-window command. Requested by merdely.
|
|
* Support binding alt keys (prefixed with M-). Change default to use
|
|
C- for ctrl keys (^ is still accepted as an alternative).
|
|
* Slim down default key bindings: support lowercase only.
|
|
* Handle escaped keys properly (parse eg \033b into a single key code) and
|
|
use this to change copy mode next/previous work to M-f and M-b to match
|
|
emacs.
|
|
|
|
24 June 2008
|
|
|
|
* Next word (C-n/w) and previous word (C-b/b) in copy mode.
|
|
|
|
23 June 2008
|
|
|
|
* list-commands command (alias lscm).
|
|
* Split information about options into a table and use it to parse options
|
|
on input (allowing abbreviations) and to print them with show-options
|
|
(meaning that bell-action gets a proper string). This turned out a bit ugly
|
|
though :-/.
|
|
|
|
22 June 2008
|
|
|
|
* Do not translate black and white into default if the terminal supports
|
|
default colours. This was nice to force programs which didn't use default
|
|
colours to be properly transparent in rxvt/aterm windows with a background
|
|
image, but it causes trouble if someone redefines the default foreground and
|
|
background (to have black on white or something).
|
|
|
|
21 June 2008
|
|
|
|
* Naive tab completion in the command prompt. This only completes command
|
|
names if a) they are at the start of the text b) the cursor is at
|
|
the end of the text c) the text contains no spaces.
|
|
* Only attempt to set the title where TERM looks like an xterm (contains
|
|
"xterm", "rxvt" or is "screen"). I hate this but I don't see a better way:
|
|
setting the title actually kills some other terminals pretty much dead.
|
|
* Strip padding out of terminfo(5) strings. Currently the padding is just
|
|
ignored, this may need to be altered if there are any software terminals
|
|
out there that actually need it.
|
|
|
|
20 June 2008
|
|
|
|
* buffer-limit option to set maximum size of buffer stack. Default is 9.
|
|
* Initial buffer improvements. Each session has a stack of buffers and each
|
|
buffer command takes a -b option to manipulate items on the stack. If -b
|
|
is omitted, the top entry is used. The following commands are currently
|
|
available:
|
|
|
|
set-buffer [-b index] [-t target-session] string
|
|
paste-buffer [-d] [-b index] [-t target-window]
|
|
delete-buffer [-b index] [-t target-session]
|
|
show-buffers [-t target-session]
|
|
show-buffer [-b index] [-t target-session]
|
|
|
|
-d to paste-buffer deletes the buffer after pasting it.
|
|
* New option, display-time, sets the time status line messages stay on screen
|
|
(unless a key is pressed). Set in milliseconds, default is 750 (0.75 seconds).
|
|
The timer is only checked every 100 ms or so.
|
|
|
|
19 June 2008
|
|
|
|
* Use "status" consistently for status line option, and prefix for "prefix" key
|
|
option.
|
|
* Allow commands to be entered at a prompt. This is triggered with the
|
|
command-prompt command, bound to : by default.
|
|
* Show status messages properly, without blocking the server.
|
|
|
|
18 June 2008
|
|
|
|
* New option, set-titles. On by default, this attempts to set the window title
|
|
using the \e]2;...\007 xterm code.
|
|
|
|
Note that elinks requires the STY environment variable (used by screen) to be
|
|
set before it will set the window title. So, if you want window titles set by
|
|
elinks, set STY before running it (any value will do). I can't do this for all
|
|
windows since setting it to an invalid value breaks screen.
|
|
* Show arrows at either end of status line when scrolled if more windows
|
|
exist. Highlight the arrow if a hidden window has activity or bell.
|
|
* Scroll the status line to show the current window if necessary. Also handle
|
|
windows smaller than needed better (show a blank status line instead of
|
|
hanging or crashing).
|
|
|
|
17 June 2008
|
|
|
|
* tmux 0.3 released.
|
|
|
|
16 June 2008
|
|
|
|
* Add some information messages when window options are changed, suggested by
|
|
Mike Erdely. Also add a -q command-line option to suppress them.
|
|
* show-window-options (showw) command.
|
|
|
|
15 June 2008
|
|
|
|
* show-options (show) command to show one or all options.
|
|
|
|
14 June 2008
|
|
|
|
* New window options: force-width and force-height. This will force a window
|
|
to an arbitrary width and height (0 for the default unlimited). This is
|
|
neat for emacs which doesn't have a sensible way to force hard wrapping at 80
|
|
columns. Also, don't try to be clever and use clr_eol when redrawing the
|
|
whole screen, it causes trouble since the redraw functions are used to draw
|
|
the blank areas too.
|
|
* Clear the blank area below windows properly when they are smaller than client,
|
|
also add an indicator line to show the vertical limit.
|
|
* Don't die on empty strings in config file, reported by Will Maier.
|
|
|
|
08 June 2008
|
|
|
|
* Set socket mode +x if any sessions are attached and -x if not.
|
|
|
|
07 June 2008
|
|
|
|
* Make status-interval actually changeable.
|
|
|
|
06 June 2008
|
|
|
|
* New window option: aggressive-resize. Normally, windows are resized to the
|
|
size of the smallest attached session to which they are linked. This means a
|
|
window only changes size when sessions are detached or attached, or they are
|
|
linked or unlinked from a session. This flag changes a window to be the size
|
|
of the smallest attached session for which it is the current window - it is
|
|
resized every time a session changes to it or away from it. This is nice for
|
|
things that handle SIGWINCH well (like irssi) and bad for things like shells.
|
|
* The server now exits when no sessions remain.
|
|
* Fix bug with inserting characters with TERM=xterm-color.
|
|
|
|
05 June 2008
|
|
|
|
* Completely reorganise command parsing. Much more common code in cmd-generic.c
|
|
and a new way of specifying windows, clients or sessions. Now, most commands
|
|
take a -t argument, which specifies a client, a session, or a window target.
|
|
Clients and sessions are given alone (sessions are fnmatch(3)d and
|
|
clients currently not), windows are give by (client|session):index. For
|
|
example, if a user is in session "1" window 0 on /dev/ttypi, these should all
|
|
be equivalent:
|
|
|
|
tmux renamew newname (current session and window)
|
|
tmux renamew -t: newname (current session and window)
|
|
tmux renamew -t:0 newname (current session, window 0)
|
|
tmux renamew -t0 newname (current session, window 0)
|
|
tmux renamew -t1:0 newname (session 1, window 0)
|
|
tmux renamew -t1: newname (session 1's current window)
|
|
tmux renamew -t/dev/ttypi newname (client /dev/ttypi's current
|
|
session and window)
|
|
tmux renamew -t/dev/ttypi: newname (client /dev/ttypi's current
|
|
session and window)
|
|
tmux renamew -t/dev/ttypi:0 newname (client /dev/ttypi's current
|
|
session, window 0)
|
|
|
|
This does have some downsides, for example, having to use -t on selectw,
|
|
|
|
tmux selectw -t7
|
|
|
|
is annoying. But then using non-flagged arguments would mean renaming the
|
|
current window would need to be something like:
|
|
|
|
tmux renamew : newname
|
|
|
|
It might be better not to try and be so consistent; comments to the usual
|
|
address ;-).
|
|
* Infrastructure for printing arguments in list-keys output. Easy ones only for
|
|
now.
|
|
|
|
04 June 2008
|
|
|
|
* Add some vi(1) key bindings in copy mode, and support binding ^[, ^\, ^]
|
|
^^ and ^_. Both from/prompted by Will Maier.
|
|
* setw monitor-activity and set status without arguments now toggle the current
|
|
value; suggested by merdely.
|
|
* New command set-window-option (alias setw) to set the single current window
|
|
option: monitor-activity to determine whether window activity is shown in
|
|
the status bar for that window (default off).
|
|
* Change so active/bell windows are inverted in status line.
|
|
* Activity monitoring - window with activity are marked in status line. No
|
|
way to disable this/filter windows yet.
|
|
* Brought select-window command into line with everything else; it now uses
|
|
-i for the window index.
|
|
* Strings to display on the left and right of the status bar may now be set
|
|
with the status-left and status-right options. These are passed through
|
|
strftime(3) before being displayed. The status bar is automatically updated
|
|
at an interval set by the status-interval option. The default is to display
|
|
nothing on the left and the date and time on the left; the default update
|
|
interval is 15 seconds.
|
|
|
|
03 June 2008
|
|
|
|
* Per session options. Setting options without specifying a session sets the
|
|
global options as normal (global options are inherited by all sessions);
|
|
passing -c or -s will set the option only for that session.
|
|
* Because a client has a session attached, any command needing a session can
|
|
take a client and use its session. So, anything that used to accept -s now
|
|
accepts -c as well.
|
|
* -s to specify session name now supports fnmatch(3) wildcards; if multiple
|
|
sessions are found, or if no -s is specified, the most newly created is used.
|
|
* If no command is specified, assume new-session. As a byproduct, clean up
|
|
command default values into separate init functions.
|
|
* kill-server command.
|
|
|
|
02 June 2008
|
|
|
|
* New command, start-server (alias "start"), to start the tmux server and do
|
|
nothing else. This is good if you have a configuration file which creates
|
|
windows or sessions (like me): in that case, starting the server the first
|
|
time tmux new is run is bad since it creates a new session and window (as
|
|
it is supposed to - starting the server is a side-effect).
|
|
|
|
Instead, I have a little script which does the equivalent of:
|
|
|
|
tmux has -s0 2>/dev/null || tmux start
|
|
tmux attach -d -s0
|
|
|
|
And I use it to start the server if necessary and attach to my primary
|
|
session.
|
|
* Basic configuration file in ~/.tmux.conf or specified with -f. This is file
|
|
contains a set of tmux commands that are run the first time the server is
|
|
started. The configuration commands are executed before any others, so
|
|
if you have a configuration file that contains:
|
|
|
|
new -d
|
|
neww -s0
|
|
|
|
And you do the following without an existing server running:
|
|
|
|
tmux new
|
|
|
|
You will end up with two sessions, session 0 with two windows (created by
|
|
the configuration file) and your client attached to session 1 with one
|
|
window (created by the command-line command). I'm not completely happy with
|
|
this, it seems a little non-obvious, but I haven't yet decided what to do
|
|
about it.
|
|
|
|
There is no environment variable handling or other special stuff yet.
|
|
|
|
In the future, it might be nice to be able to have per-session configuration
|
|
settings, probably by having conditionals in the file (so you could, for
|
|
example, have commands to define a particular window layout that would only
|
|
be invoked if you called tmux new -smysession and mysession did not already
|
|
exist).
|
|
* BIG CHANGE: -s and -c to specify session name and client name are now passed
|
|
after the command rather than before it. So, for example:
|
|
|
|
tmux -s0 neww
|
|
|
|
Becomes:
|
|
|
|
tmux neww -s0
|
|
|
|
This is to allow them to be used in the (forthcoming) configuration file
|
|
THIS WILL BREAK ANY CURRENT SCRIPTS OR ALIASES USING -s OR -c.
|
|
|
|
01 June 2008
|
|
|
|
* Bug fix: don't die if -k passed to link-window and the destination doesn't
|
|
exist.
|
|
* New command, send-keys, will send a set of keys to a window.
|
|
|
|
31 May 2008
|
|
|
|
* Fix so tmux doesn't hang if the initial window fails for some reason. This
|
|
was highlighted by problems on Darwin, thanks to Elias Pipping for the report
|
|
and access to a test account. (tmux still won't work on Darwin since its
|
|
poll(2) is broken.)
|
|
|
|
02 January 2008
|
|
|
|
* Don't attempt to reset the tty on exit if it has been closed externally.
|
|
|
|
06 December 2007
|
|
|
|
* Restore checks for required termcap entries and add a few more obvious
|
|
emulations.
|
|
* Another major reorganisation, this time of screen handling. A new set of
|
|
functions, screen_write_*, are now used to write to a screen and a tty
|
|
simultaneously. These are used by the input parser to update the base
|
|
window screen and also by the different modes which now interpose their own
|
|
screen.
|
|
|
|
30 November 2007
|
|
|
|
* Support \ek...\e\ to set window name.
|
|
|
|
27 November 2007
|
|
|
|
* Enable/disable mouse when asked, if terminal claims to support it. Mouse
|
|
sequences are just passed through unaltered for the moment.
|
|
* Big internal reorganisation. Rather than leaving control of the tty solely in
|
|
the client and piping all data through a socket to it, change so that the
|
|
server opens the tty again and reads and writes to it directly. This avoids
|
|
a lot of buffering and copying. Also reorganise the redrawing stuff so that
|
|
everything goes through screen_draw_* - this makes the code simpler, but
|
|
still needs broken up more, and all the ways of writing to screens should be
|
|
more consistent.
|
|
|
|
26 November 2007
|
|
|
|
* Rather than shifting up one line at a time once the history is full,
|
|
shift by 10% of the history each time. This is faster.
|
|
* Add ^A and ^E to copy mode to move to start-of-line/end-of-line.
|
|
|
|
24 November 2007
|
|
|
|
* Support for alt charset mode (VT100 graphics characters).
|
|
|
|
23 November 2007
|
|
|
|
* Mostly complete copy & paste. Copy mode entered with C-b [ (copy-mode
|
|
command). In copy mode, arrow keys/page up/page down/hjkl/C-u/C-f navigate,
|
|
space or C-space starts selection, and enter or C-w copies and (important!)
|
|
exits copy mode. C-b ] (paste-buffer) pastes into current window. No
|
|
extra utility keys (bol/eol/clear selection/etc), only one single buffer,
|
|
and no buffer manipulation commands (clear/view/etc) yet. The code is also
|
|
fugly :-(.
|
|
* history-limit option to set maximum history. Does not apply retroactively to
|
|
existing windows! Lines take up a variable amount of space, but a reasonable
|
|
guess for an 80-column terminal is 250 KB per 1000 lines (of history used,
|
|
an empty history takes no space).
|
|
|
|
21 November 2007
|
|
|
|
* Create every line as zero length and only expand it as data is written,
|
|
rather than creating at full size immediately.
|
|
* Make command output (eg list-keys) go to a scrollable window similar to
|
|
scroll mode.
|
|
* Redo screen redrawing so it is a) readable b) split into utility functions
|
|
that can be used outside screen.c. Use these to make scroll mode only
|
|
redraw what it has to which gets rid of irritating flickering status box and
|
|
makes it much faster.
|
|
* Full line width memory and horizontal scrolling in history.
|
|
* Initial support for scroll history. = to enter scrolling mode, and then
|
|
vi keys or up/down/pgup/pgdown to navigate. Q to exit. No horizontal history
|
|
yet (need per-line sizes) and a few kinks to be worked out (resizing while in
|
|
history mode will probably cause trouble).
|
|
|
|
20 November 2007
|
|
|
|
* Fix format string error with "must specify a client" message. Also
|
|
sprinkle some printflike tags.
|
|
* tmux 0.1 released.
|
|
|
|
17 November 2007
|
|
|
|
* (nicm) Add -k option to link-window to kill target window if it exists.
|
|
|
|
16 November 2007
|
|
|
|
* (nicm) Split in-client display into two columns. This is a hack but not a lot
|
|
more so than that bit is already and it helps with lots of keys.
|
|
* (nicm) switch-client command to switch client between different sessions. This
|
|
is pretty cool:
|
|
|
|
$ tmux bind q switch 0
|
|
$ tmux bind w switch 1
|
|
|
|
Then you can switch between sessions 0 and 1 with a key :-).
|
|
* (nicm) Accept "-c client-tty" on command line to allow client manipulation
|
|
commands, and change detach-/refresh-session to detach-/refresh-client (this
|
|
loses the -a behaviour, but at some point -session versions may return, and
|
|
-c will allow fnmatch(3)).
|
|
* (nicm) List available commands on ambiguous command.
|
|
|
|
12 November 2007
|
|
|
|
* (nicm) If the terminal supports default colours (AX present), force black
|
|
background and white foreground to default. This is useful on transparent
|
|
*terms for programs which don't do it themselves (like most(1)).
|
|
* (nicm) Fill in the rest of the man page.
|
|
* (nicm) kill-session command.
|
|
|
|
09 November 2007
|
|
|
|
* (nicm) C-space is now "^ " not "^@".
|
|
* (nicm) Support tab (\011).
|
|
* (nicm) Initial man page outline.
|
|
* (nicm) -V to show version.
|
|
* (nicm) rename-session command.
|
|
|
|
08 November 2007
|
|
|
|
* (nicm) Check for required terminal capabilities on start.
|
|
|
|
31 October 2007
|
|
|
|
* (nicm) Linux port.
|
|
|
|
30 October 2007
|
|
|
|
* (nicm) swap-window command. Same as link-window but swaps windows.
|
|
|
|
26 October 2007
|
|
|
|
* (nicm) Saving scroll region on \e7 causes problems with ncmpc so I guess
|
|
it is not required.
|
|
* (nicm) unlink-window command.
|
|
* (nicm) link-window command to link an existing window into another session
|
|
(or another index in the same session). Syntax:
|
|
|
|
tmux -s dstname link-window [-i dstidx] srcname srcidx
|
|
|
|
* (nicm) Redo window data structures. The global array remains, but each per-
|
|
session list is now a RB tree of winlink structures. This disassociates the
|
|
window index from the array size (allowing arbitrary indexes) which still
|
|
allowing windows to have multiple indexes.
|
|
|
|
25 October 2007
|
|
|
|
* (nicm) has-session command: checks if session exists.
|
|
|
|
24 October 2007
|
|
|
|
* (nicm) Support for \e6n to request cursor position. resize(1) now works.
|
|
* (nicm) Support for \e7, \e8 save/restore cursor and attribute sequences.
|
|
Currently don't save mode (probably should). Also change some cases where
|
|
out-of-bound values are ignored to limit them to within range (there are
|
|
others than need to be checked too).
|
|
|
|
23 October 2007
|
|
|
|
* (nicm) Lift limit on session name passed with -s.
|
|
* (nicm) Show size in session/window lists.
|
|
* (nicm) Pass tty up to server when client identifies and add a list-clients
|
|
command to list connected clients.
|
|
|
|
20 October 2007
|
|
|
|
* (nicm) Add default-command option and change default to be $SHELL rather than
|
|
$SHELL -l. Also try to read shell from passwd db if $SHELL isn't present.
|
|
|
|
19 October 2007
|
|
|
|
* (nicm) -n on new-session is now -s, and -n is now the initial window name.
|
|
This was documented but not implemented :-/.
|
|
* (nicm) kill-window command, bound to & by default (because it should be hard
|
|
to hit accidently).
|
|
* (nicm) bell-style option with three choices: "none" completely ignore bell;
|
|
"any" pass through a bell in any window to current; "current" ignore bells
|
|
except in current window. This applies only to the bell terminal signal,
|
|
the status bar always reflects any bells.
|
|
* (nicm) Refresh session command.
|
|
|
|
12 October 2007
|
|
|
|
* (nicm) Add a warning if $TMUX exists on new/attach.
|
|
* (nicm) send-prefix command. Bound to C-b by default.
|
|
* (nicm) set status, status-fg, status-bg commands. fg and bg are as a number
|
|
from 0 to 8 or a string ("red", "blue", etc). status may be 1/0, on/off,
|
|
yes/no.
|
|
* (nicm) Make status line mark window in yellow on bell.
|
|
|
|
04 October 2007
|
|
|
|
* (nicm) -d option to attach to detach all other clients on the same session.
|
|
* (nicm) Partial resizing support. Still buggy. A C-b S and back sometimes fixes
|
|
it when it goes wonky.
|
|
* (mxey) Added my tmux start script as an example (examples/start-tmux.sh).
|
|
* (mxey) New sessions can now be given a command for their first window.
|
|
* (mxey) Fixed usage statement for new-window.
|
|
* (nicm) attach-session (can't believe I forgot it until now!) and list-windows
|
|
commands.
|
|
* (nicm) rename-window and select-window commands.
|
|
* (nicm) set-option command (alias set): "tmux set-option prefix ^A".
|
|
* (nicm) Key binding and unbinding is back.
|
|
|
|
03 October 2007
|
|
|
|
* (nicm) {new,next,last,previous}-window.
|
|
* (nicm) Rewrite command handling so commands are much more generic and the
|
|
same commands are used for command line and keys (although most will probably
|
|
need to check how they are called). Currently incomplete (only new/detach/ls
|
|
implemented). Change: -s is now passed before command again!
|
|
* (nicm) String number arguments. So you can do: tmux bind ^Q create "blah".
|
|
* (nicm) Key binding. tmux bind key command [argument] and tmux unbind key.
|
|
Key names are in a table in key-string.c, plus A is A, ^A is ctrl-A.
|
|
Possible commands are in cmd.c (look at cmd_bind_table).
|
|
* (nicm) Move command parsing into the client. Also rename some messages and
|
|
tidy up a few bits. Lots more tidying up needed :-/.
|
|
|
|
02 October 2007
|
|
|
|
* (nicm) Redraw client status lines on rename.
|
|
* (nicm) Error on ambiguous command.
|
|
|
|
01 October 2007
|
|
|
|
* (nicm) Restore window title handling.
|
|
* (nicm) Simple uncustomisable status line with window list.
|
|
|
|
30 September 2007
|
|
|
|
* (nicm) Window info command for debugging, C-b I.
|
|
|
|
29 September 2007
|
|
|
|
* (nicm) Deleting/inserting lines should follow scrolling region. Fix.
|
|
* (nicm) Allow creation of detached sessions: "tmux new-session -d".
|
|
* (nicm) Permit error messages to be passed back for transient clients like
|
|
rename. Also make rename -i work.
|
|
* (nicm) Pass through bell in any window to current.
|
|
|
|
28 September 2007
|
|
|
|
* (nicm) Major rewrite of input parser:
|
|
- Lose the old weirdness in favour of a state machine.
|
|
- Merge in parsing from screen.c.
|
|
- Split key parsing off into a separate file.
|
|
This is step one towards hopefully allowing a status line. It requires
|
|
that we output data as if the terminal had one line less than it really does -
|
|
a serious problem when it comes to things like scrolling. This change
|
|
consolidates all the range checking and limiting together which should make
|
|
it easier.
|
|
* (mxey) Added window renaming, like "tmux rename [-s session] [-i index] name"
|
|
|
|
27 September 2007
|
|
|
|
* Split "tmux list" into "tmux list-sessions" (ls) and "list-windows" (lsw).
|
|
* New command session selection:
|
|
- if name is specified, look for it and use it if it exists, otherwise
|
|
error
|
|
- if no name specified, try the current session from $TMUX
|
|
- if $TMUX doesn't exist, and there is only one session, use it,
|
|
otherwise error
|
|
|
|
26 September 2007
|
|
|
|
* Add command aliases, so "ls" is an alias for "list".
|
|
* Rename some commands and alter syntax to take options after a la CVS. Also
|
|
change some flags. So:
|
|
|
|
tmux -s/socket -nabc new
|
|
|
|
Becomes:
|
|
|
|
tmux -S/socket new -sabc
|
|
|
|
* Major tidy and split of client/server code.
|
|
|
|
22 September 2007
|
|
|
|
* Window list command (C-b W). Started by Maximilian Gass, finished by me.
|
|
|
|
20 September 2007
|
|
|
|
* Specify meta via environment variable (META).
|
|
* Record last window and ^L key to switch to it. Largely from Maximilian Gass.
|
|
* Reset ignored signals in child after forkpty, makes ^C work.
|
|
* Wrap on next/previous. From Maximilian Gass.
|
|
|
|
19 September 2007
|
|
|
|
* Don't renumber windows on close.
|
|
|
|
28 August 2007
|
|
|
|
* Scrolling region (\e[r) support.
|
|
|
|
27 August 2007
|
|
|
|
* Change screen.c to work more logically and hopefully fix heap corruption.
|
|
|
|
09 July 2007
|
|
|
|
* Initial import to CVS. Basic functions are working, albeit with a couple of
|
|
showstopper memory bugs and many missing features. Detaching, reattaching,
|
|
creating new sessions, listing sessions work acceptably for using with shells.
|
|
Simple curses programs (top, systat, tetris) and more complicated ones (mutt,
|
|
emacs) that don't require scrolling regions (ESC[r) mostly work fine
|
|
(including mutt, emacs). No status bar yet and no key remapping or other
|
|
customisation.
|
