From 0833c79b34c36cf4121055f0bf929a5526d0d5ea Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: kaernyk Date: Fri, 5 Sep 2014 07:48:24 -0400 Subject: Massive re-write I wanted to show a lot more than I had previously, though this may have gotten a little out of hand for a casual glance in comparison to the previous version. I feel that a majority of the available tools/features that tmux has to offer should be noticeable during a quick skim, and the bulk of the information is still digestible over a short period of time. --- LearnTmux.txt | 241 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-------------- 1 file changed, 185 insertions(+), 56 deletions(-) (limited to 'LearnTmux.txt') diff --git a/LearnTmux.txt b/LearnTmux.txt index eaf3fd25..65ead04f 100644 --- a/LearnTmux.txt +++ b/LearnTmux.txt @@ -6,66 +6,195 @@ contributors: filename: LearnTmux.txt --- +```bash +# tmux is a terminal multiplexer: it enables a number of terminals to be +# created, accessed, and controlled from a single screen. tmux may be detached +# from a screen and continue running in the background, then later reattached. - tmux is a terminal multiplexer: it enables a number of terminals to be -created, accessed, and controlled from a single screen. tmux may be detached -from a screen and continue running in the background, then later reattached. +# Once you feel comfortable manipulating tmux to suit your needs, I strongly +# suggest you read the man pages, as there are TONS of features I’m not going +# to go over. - Once you feel comfortable manipulating tmux to suit your needs, I strongly -suggest you read the man pages. +# We’ll start of with managing tmux from a terminal, then introduce you to the +# keybinds: - -``` -# Session Management - - tmux new Create new session - -s "Session" Create named session - -n "Window" Create named Window - -c "/dir" Start in target directory - - C^b $ Rename current session - C^b d Detach current session - C^b D Select session to detach + tmux | tmux new # Create an unamed session + -s "Session" # Create named session + -n "Window" # Create named Window + -c "/dir" # Start in target directory - tmux attach Attach last/available session - -t "#" Attach target session - -d Detach the session from other instances + tmux attach # Attach last/available session + -t "#" # Attach target session + -d # Detach the session from other instances - tmux ls List open sessions - C^b s Select new session for attached client interactively - - kill-session Kill current session - -t "#" Kill target session - -a Kill all sessions - -a -t "#" Kill all sessions but the target - - -# Window Management - - C^b c Create another window - C^b " Split Horizontally - C^b % Split Vertically - C^b M-(1-5) 1) Tile vertically - 2) Tile horizontally - 3) Tile Vertically /w large horizontal - 4) Tile horizontally /w large vertical - 5) Tile all windows evenly - - C^b q Briefly display pane indexes - C^# Choose current window by # - C^b w Choose current window interactively - C^b n Change to next window - C^b p Change to previous window - C^b Up, Right Change to pane in selected direction - Down, left - C^b { Swap current/previous window - C^b } Swap current/next window - - C^b C-Up, Right Resize in steps of one cell - Down, left - C^b M-Up, Right resize in steps of five cells - Down, left - - exit or C^b x Kill the current window + tmux ls # List open sessions + + kill-session # Kill current session + -t "#" # Kill target session + -a # Kill all sessions + -a -t "#" # Kill all sessions but the target + + + +## Key Bindings + +# The method of controlling an attached tmux session is fairly simple, but +# there are two keys we will see repeated throughout this write-up (as well as +# the man pages). + + (C-b) == Ctrl + b THEN ?
