Re: Anyone loving Tmux in place of Screen? Info/Tips etc. URLs I've found

I'm running rtorrent as daemon in detached session via rc.d script from the wiki.
Now I'd like to run few other apps in the same session (mail, fm, etc.). How to accomplish this?

Re: Anyone loving Tmux in place of Screen? Info/Tips etc. URLs I've found

I use two custom .tmux.conf files to launch tmux with two windows and four windows.  I did the same with screen, but screen started all the windows in the directory from which I ran the command.  I tried "set -g default-path ..." but that doesn't affect the first window.  Plus, I would rather it start in PWD.  Any suggestions?

Four-window conf:

$ alias
...
alias tmux4='tmux -f ~/.tmux4 attach
...
$ cat .tmux4
set -g default-path /home/testing/bin

unbind C-b
set -g prefix ^A

new -n bash
splitw -h -p 50 -t 0
splitw -v -p 50 -t 0
splitw -v -p 50 -t 1
selectp -t 0

@jasonwryan, I tried it already. With session info in .tmux.conf 'tmux a' will show rtorrent session if daemon is started, and if not, it will show session defined in config. I want to have everything in session started by daemon.

EDIT: Solved, I made bash script as explained here, only without line which creates new detached session.

Re: Anyone loving Tmux in place of Screen? Info/Tips etc. URLs I've found

Hey I've just installed tmux 5 days ago or so..and its amazing.
But for the past 2 days.. I've been having problems configuring my tmux to run 256-color setups.
I've been trying to setup vim colorschemes (over at http://bytefluent.com/vivify/ )  but because of the 8-bit color output its not possible. Something messes up the color output to an 8-bit output.

The output of tput colors is : xterm-256
I have already : set -g default-terminal "screen-256color" ## in my ~/.tmux.conf
and : set t_Co=256 ## in my ~/.vimrc

I don't seem to have a ~/.profile
export TERM="xterm-256color"
alias tmux="tmux -2" ## in ~/.bashrc did not help either.

thanks.

Well you should never be setting TERM manually, anyway.

In a new, non-tmux terminal, what is the value of TERM?

Okay I found that the value of TERM in a non-tmux terminal was "xterm" so I did an  "export" there.
It works fine ONLY when I run tmux after opening a terminal by command.

If I run tmux automatically on startup ( after editing my .bashrc) it doesn't support 256 colors. 8-bit again.

I think its some problem with my .tmux.conf.

Export what? I told you not to mess with the TERM variable.

Are you setting TERM anywhere in any of your shell rc files? If so, then you need to comment out (or better yet, delete) any lines where you are exporting TERM. Then logout and log back in to make sure that your login session isn't polluted with that. You should almost never set TERM manually.

Have you exited all tmux windows and started a new tmux server since adding the default-terminal parameter? The .tmux.conf is only read when the server starts. If you have any other sessions (attached or not) when you exit a session, the server continues to run, so tmux won't read the config file when you open a new terminal and start a new tmux session. Either exit all tmux sessions and start a new one or run tmux source ~/.tmux.conf to reload the config.

Wrote this to make it easier to login to a bunch of servers and run the same command on all of them at once.

ClusterSSH is cool but when I VPN into work, a lot of hosts are firewalled from the VPN. Trying to X11 forward 10 or 12 xterms, or hack something together with dynamic SSH forwarding and send the clusterssh command over a tunnel was more trouble than it was worth.

This script uses the tiled pane layout and the synchronize-panes window option to send the same keystrokes to every pane at once.

#!/bin/sh
#
# Script Name: tssh
# Description: Emulates clusterssh natively in tmux
# Usage:       tssh host1 host2 host3 ...
#

################################# FUNCTIONS ##################################

function cur_win () {
  echo `tmux list-windows -F '#I:#{window_active}' | grep '1$' | cut -f1 -d:`
}

function build_target_arg () {
  while getopts 't:' option; do
    case $option in
      t) target_window=$OPTARG;;
    esac
  done

  if test -n target_window; then
    echo " -t :${target_window}"
  fi
}

function cur_pane () {
  target_arg=$(build_target_arg $@)
  echo $(tmux list-panes -F '#P:#{pane_active}'${target_arg} | grep '1$' | cut -f1 -d:)
}

########################### MAIN SCRIPT EXECUTION ############################

# create new tmux window

Put this bad boy in .tmux.conf:

bind S command-prompt -p 'SSH to:' "new-window -n %1 'ssh %1'"
