33: .Sh DESCRIPTION
34: .Nm
1.59 jmc 35: is a terminal multiplexer:
36: it enables a number of terminals to be created, accessed, and
37: controlled from a single screen.
1.67 jmc 38: .Nm
39: may be detached from a screen
40: and continue running in the background,
41: then later reattached.
1.1 nicm 42: .Pp
1.60 nicm 43: When
44: .Nm
45: is started it creates a new
46: .Em session
47: with a single
48: .Em window
49: and displays it on screen.
50: A status line at the bottom of the screen
51: shows information on the current session
52: and is used to enter interactive commands.
53: .Pp
54: A session is a single collection of
55: .Em pseudo terminals
56: under the management of
57: .Nm .
58: Each session has one or more
59: windows linked to it.
60: A window occupies the entire screen
61: and may be split into rectangular panes,
62: each of which is a separate pseudo terminal
63: (the
64: .Xr pty 4
65: manual page documents the technical details of pseudo terminals).
66: Any number of
67: .Nm
68: instances may connect to the same session,
69: and any number of windows may be present in the same session.
70: Once all sessions are killed,
71: .Nm
72: exits.
73: .Pp
1.64 nicm 74: Each session is persistent and will survive accidental disconnection
1.66 jmc 75: (such as
1.64 nicm 76: .Xr ssh 1
1.67 jmc 77: connection timeout) or intentional detaching (with the
1.64 nicm 78: .Ql C-b d
79: key strokes).
80: .Nm
81: may be reattached using:
82: .Pp
83: .Dl $ tmux attach
1.60 nicm 84: .Pp
1.64 nicm 85: In
86: .Nm ,
87: a session is displayed on screen by a
88: .Em client
89: and all sessions are managed by a single
90: .Em server .
91: The server and each client are separate processes which communicate through a
92: socket in
93: .Pa /tmp .
1.65 nicm 94: .Pp
1.1 nicm 95: The options are as follows:
96: .Bl -tag -width "XXXXXXXXXXXX"
97: .It Fl 2
98: Force
99: .Nm
100: to assume the terminal supports 256 colours.
101: .It Fl 8
102: Like
103: .Fl 2 ,
1.6 jmc 104: but indicates that the terminal supports 88 colours.
1.91 nicm 105: .It Fl c Ar shell-command
106: Execute
107: .Ar shell-command
108: using the default shell.
109: If necessary, the
110: .Nm
111: server will be started to retrieve the
112: .Ic default-shell
113: option.
1.153 nicm 114: This option is for compatibility with
115: .Xr sh 1
116: when
117: .Nm
118: is used as a login shell.
1.1 nicm 119: .It Fl f Ar file
120: Specify an alternative configuration file.
121: By default,
122: .Nm
1.26 nicm 123: loads the system configuration file from
124: .Pa /etc/tmux.conf ,
125: if present, then looks for a user configuration file at
1.1 nicm 126: .Pa ~/.tmux.conf .
127: The configuration file is a set of
128: .Nm
129: commands which are executed in sequence when the server is first started.
1.61 nicm 130: .Pp
131: If a command in the configuration file fails,
132: .Nm
133: will report an error and exit without executing further commands.
1.1 nicm 134: .It Fl L Ar socket-name
135: .Nm
136: stores the server socket in a directory under
1.208 nicm 137: .Pa /tmp
138: (or
139: .Ev TMPDIR
140: if set);
1.1 nicm 141: the default socket is named
142: .Em default .
143: This option allows a different socket name to be specified, allowing several
144: independent
145: .Nm
146: servers to be run.
147: Unlike
148: .Fl S
149: a full path is not necessary: the sockets are all created in the same
150: directory.
1.2 nicm 151: .Pp
152: If the socket is accidentally removed, the
1.6 jmc 153: .Dv SIGUSR1
1.2 nicm 154: signal may be sent to the
155: .Nm
156: server process to recreate it.
1.166 sobrado 157: .It Fl l
158: Behave as a login shell.
159: This flag currently has no effect and is for compatibility with other shells
160: when using tmux as a login shell.
1.4 sobrado 161: .It Fl q
1.133 nicm 162: Set the
163: .Ic quiet
164: server option to prevent the server sending various informational messages.
1.1 nicm 165: .It Fl S Ar socket-path
166: Specify a full alternative path to the server socket.
167: If
168: .Fl S
169: is specified, the default socket directory is not used and any
170: .Fl L
171: flag is ignored.
172: .It Fl u
173: .Nm
1.14 nicm 174: attempts to guess if the terminal is likely to support UTF-8 by checking the
175: first of the
176: .Ev LC_ALL ,
177: .Ev LC_CTYPE
178: and
1.2 nicm 179: .Ev LANG
1.14 nicm 180: environment variables to be set for the string "UTF-8".
1.5 nicm 181: This is not always correct: the
1.2 nicm 182: .Fl u
183: flag explicitly informs
184: .Nm
1.6 jmc 185: that UTF-8 is supported.
1.33 nicm 186: .Pp
187: If the server is started from a client passed
188: .Fl u
189: or where UTF-8 is detected, the
190: .Ic utf8
191: and
192: .Ic status-utf8
193: options are enabled in the global window and session options respectively.
1.1 nicm 194: .It Fl v
195: Request verbose logging.
196: This option may be specified multiple times for increasing verbosity.
197: Log messages will be saved into
198: .Pa tmux-client-PID.log
199: and
200: .Pa tmux-server-PID.log
201: files in the current directory, where
202: .Em PID
1.6 jmc 203: is the PID of the server or client process.
1.1 nicm 204: .It Ar command Op Ar flags
205: This specifies one of a set of commands used to control
206: .Nm ,
1.6 jmc 207: as described in the following sections.
1.59 jmc 208: If no commands are specified, the
1.1 nicm 209: .Ic new-session
210: command is assumed.
1.57 jmc 211: .El
1.64 nicm 212: .Sh KEY BINDINGS

331: and
332: .Ic unbind-key
333: commands.
1.57 jmc 334: .Sh COMMANDS
335: This section contains a list of the commands supported by
336: .Nm .
337: Most commands accept the optional
338: .Fl t
339: argument with one of
340: .Ar target-client ,
341: .Ar target-session
342: .Ar target-window ,
343: or
344: .Ar target-pane .
345: These specify the client, session, window or pane which a command should affect.
346: .Ar target-client
347: is the name of the
348: .Xr pty 4
349: file to which the client is connected, for example either of
350: .Pa /dev/ttyp1
351: or
352: .Pa ttyp1
353: for the client attached to
354: .Pa /dev/ttyp1 .
355: If no client is specified, the current client is chosen, if possible, or an
356: error is reported.
357: Clients may be listed with the
358: .Ic list-clients
359: command.
1.1 nicm 360: .Pp
1.57 jmc 361: .Ar target-session
362: is either the name of a session (as listed by the
363: .Ic list-sessions
364: command) or the name of a client with the same syntax as
365: .Ar target-client ,
366: in which case the session attached to the client is used.
367: When looking for the session name,
368: .Nm
369: initially searches for an exact match; if none is found, the session names
370: are checked for any for which
371: .Ar target-session
372: is a prefix or for which it matches as an
373: .Xr fnmatch 3
374: pattern.
375: If a single match is found, it is used as the target session; multiple matches
376: produce an error.
377: If a session is omitted, the current session is used if available; if no
1.117 nicm 378: current session is available, the most recently used is chosen.
1.1 nicm 379: .Pp
1.57 jmc 380: .Ar target-window
381: specifies a window in the form
382: .Em session Ns \&: Ns Em window .
383: .Em session
384: follows the same rules as for
385: .Ar target-session ,
386: and
387: .Em window
1.270 nicm 388: is looked for in order: as a window index, for example mysession:1;
1.271 jmc 389: as a window ID, such as @1;
1.270 nicm 390: as an exact window name, such as mysession:mywindow; then as an
1.57 jmc 391: .Xr fnmatch 3
392: pattern or the start of a window name, such as mysession:mywin* or
393: mysession:mywin.
394: An empty window name specifies the next unused index if appropriate (for
395: example the
396: .Ic new-window
397: and
398: .Ic link-window
399: commands)
400: otherwise the current window in
401: .Em session
402: is chosen.
1.140 nicm 403: The special character
404: .Ql \&!
405: uses the last (previously current) window, or
406: .Ql +
407: and
408: .Ql -
409: are the next window or the previous window by number.
1.57 jmc 410: When the argument does not contain a colon,
411: .Nm
412: first attempts to parse it as window; if that fails, an attempt is made to
413: match a session.
1.1 nicm 414: .Pp
1.57 jmc 415: .Ar target-pane
416: takes a similar form to
417: .Ar target-window
418: but with the optional addition of a period followed by a pane index, for
419: example: mysession:mywindow.1.
420: If the pane index is omitted, the currently active pane in the specified
421: window is used.
422: If neither a colon nor period appears,
1.13 nicm 423: .Nm
1.57 jmc 424: first attempts to use the argument as a pane index; if that fails, it is looked
425: up as for
426: .Ar target-window .
1.156 nicm 427: A
428: .Ql +
429: or
430: .Ql -
431: indicate the next or previous pane index, respectively.
1.132 nicm 432: One of the strings
433: .Em top ,
434: .Em bottom ,
435: .Em left ,
436: .Em right ,
437: .Em top-left ,
438: .Em top-right ,
1.216 nicm 439: .Em bottom-left
440: or
1.132 nicm 441: .Em bottom-right
442: may be used instead of a pane index.
1.177 nicm 443: .Pp
444: The special characters
445: .Ql +
446: and
447: .Ql -
448: may be followed by an offset, for example:
449: .Bd -literal -offset indent
450: select-window -t:+2
451: .Ed
452: .Pp
453: When dealing with a session that doesn't contain sequential window indexes,
454: they will be correctly skipped.
1.212 nicm 455: .Pp
456: .Nm
457: also gives each pane created in a server an identifier consisting of a
458: .Ql %
459: and a number, starting from zero.
460: A pane's identifier is unique for the life of the
461: .Nm
462: server and is passed to the child process of the pane in the
463: .Ev TMUX_PANE
464: environment variable.
465: It may be used alone to target a pane or the window containing it.
1.15 jmc 466: .Pp
1.153 nicm 467: .Ar shell-command
468: arguments are
469: .Xr sh 1
470: commands.
471: These must be passed as a single item, which typically means quoting them, for
472: example:
473: .Bd -literal -offset indent
474: new-window 'vi /etc/passwd'
475: .Ed
476: .Pp
477: .Ar command
478: .Op Ar arguments
479: refers to a
480: .Nm
481: command, passed with the command and arguments separately, for example:
482: .Bd -literal -offset indent
483: bind-key F1 set-window-option force-width 81
484: .Ed
485: .Pp
486: Or if using
487: .Xr sh 1 :
488: .Bd -literal -offset indent
489: $ tmux bind-key F1 set-window-option force-width 81
490: .Ed
491: .Pp
1.57 jmc 492: Multiple commands may be specified together as part of a
493: .Em command sequence .
494: Each command should be separated by spaces and a semicolon;
1.244 nicm 495: commands are executed sequentially from left to right and
496: lines ending with a backslash continue on to the next line.
1.57 jmc 497: A literal semicolon may be included by escaping it with a backslash (for
498: example, when specifying a command sequence to
499: .Ic bind-key ) .
1.13 nicm 500: .Pp
1.153 nicm 501: Example
502: .Nm
503: commands include:
1.13 nicm 504: .Bd -literal -offset indent
1.57 jmc 505: refresh-client -t/dev/ttyp2
506:
