# Restoring pane contents
This plugin enables saving and restoring tmux pane contents.
This feature can be enabled by adding this line to `.tmux.conf`:
set -g @resurrect-capture-pane-contents 'on'
##### Known issue
When using this feature, please check the value of `default-command`
tmux option. That can be done with `$ tmux show -g default-command`.
The value should NOT contain `&&` or `||` operators. If it does, simplify the
option so those operators are removed.
Example:
- this will cause issues (notice the `&&` and `||` operators):
set -g default-command "which reattach-to-user-namespace > /dev/null && reattach-to-user-namespace -l $SHELL || $SHELL -l"
- this is ok:
set -g default-command "reattach-to-user-namespace -l $SHELL"

handle this option in a cross-platform way and you'll have no problems.
