Moved org files, added proper README
Org files are moved from org/config-website to org/config. Symlink img
was changed accordingly.

org/config/index.org is no longer a symlink and was replaced by the
former README.org which is now shorter and more consice.

org/config/header.org was cleaned, no more lines related to LaTeX
exports and no unused macros

Phundraks tmux config

Presentation

I dont really use tmux often, but I certainly do like a nice presentation and useful features, hence this configuration. This config file is inspired by gpakoszs tmux configuration repo you can find here.

Windows and pane creation

Whether if a new window will retain the current path. Possible values are:

  • true
  • false (default)
tmux_conf_new_window_retain_current_path=true

Whether if a new pane should retain the current path. Possible values are:

  • true (default)
  • false
tmux_conf_new_window_retain_current_path=true

Whether or not tmux should attempt to reconnect to the current ssh session. This is still experimental. Possible values are:

  • true
  • false (default)
tmux_conf_new_pane_reconnect_ssh=true

Whether tmux should prompt for new session name when creating a new one. Possible values are:

  • true
  • false (default)
tmux_conf_new_session_prompt=false

Display

Whether to activate RGB 24-bit color support (only available in tmux >= 2.2). Possible values are:

  • true
  • false (default)
tmux_conf_theme_24b_colour=false

These variables are for chosing the window style. I use the default one.

  tmux_conf_theme_window_fg='default'
  tmux_conf_theme_window_bg='default'

Whether the focused pane should be highlighted (only available in tmux >= 2.1). Possible values are:

  • true
  • false (default)
  tmux_conf_theme_highlight_focused_pane=false

Set the terminal title. Built-in variables are:

  • #{circled_window_index}
  • #{circled_session_name}
  • #{hostname}
  • #{hostname_ssh}
  • #{username}
  • #{username_ssh}
  tmux_conf_theme_terminal_title='#h ❐ #S ● #I #W'

These variables set the left/right separators between sections. With the current values, you dont need to install Powerline, but only fonts patched with Powerline symbols or the standalone PowerlineSymbols.otf font.

  tmux_conf_theme_left_separator_main='\uE0B0'
  tmux_conf_theme_left_separator_sub='\uE0B1'
  tmux_conf_theme_right_separator_main='\uE0B2'
  tmux_conf_theme_right_separator_sub='\uE0B3'

Colors and style

Colors displayed in tmux can be chosen thanks to the following variables. Any color should be formatted as a hexadecimal RGB value preceded by a pound sign # (e.g. #00afff for light blue) or default to let our terminal set it for us.

Choose the style of the pane borders. Possible values are:

  • thin (default)
  • fat
tmux_conf_theme_pane_border_style=thin

Declare what the colors of the focused pane should be. The first variable specifies the foreground color, the other the background color.

  tmux_conf_theme_focused_pane_fg='default'

Here you can set the colors of the pane borders.

  tmux_conf_theme_pane_border='#444444'
  tmux_conf_theme_pane_active_border='#00afff'

With these variables, you can set the colors for the pane indicators.

These variables set the colors and the style of the status line.

User customizations

Here we can override or undo some setting from settings from tmux. First, we can increase the history size.

  set -g history-limit 10000

We can also start with mouse mode enabled. But I dont.

  #set -g mouse on

Whether or not Vi mode should be enabled. But really, we should rather export the VISUAL or EDITOR environment variables, see the tmux manual. Although I dont, as said in my dotfish, I prefer to use Emacs.

  #set -g status-keys vi
  #set -g mode-keys vi

Replace C-b by C-a instead of using both prefixes. I personally prefer to just use C-b, hence why the lines are commented.

  # set -gu prefix2
  # unbind C-a
  # unbind C-b
  # set -g prefix C-a
  # bind C-a send-prefix

Move the status line to the top.

  #set -g status-position top
