Incompatible Changes
====================
* Key tables have undergone major changes. Mode key tables are no longer
separate from the main key tables. All mode key tables have been removed,
together with the -t flag to bind-key and unbind-key.
The emacs-edit, vi-edit, emacs-choose and vi-choose tables have been replaced
by fixed key bindings in the command prompt and choose modes. The mode-keys
and status-keys options remain.
The emacs-copy and vi-copy tables have been replaced by the copy-mode and
copy-mode-vi tables. Commands are sent using the -X and -N flags to
send-keys. So the following:
bind -temacs-copy C-Up scroll-up
bind -temacs-copy -R5 WheelUpPane scroll-up
Becomes:
bind -Tcopy-mode C-Up send -X scroll-up
bind -Tcopy-mode WheelUpPane send -N5 -X scroll-up
This changes allows the full command parser (including command sequences) and
command set to be used - for example, the normal command prompt with editing
and history is now used for searching, jumping, and so on instead of a custom
one. The default C-r binding is now:
bind -Tcopy-mode C-r command-prompt -p'search up' "send -X search-backward '%%'"
There are also some new commmands available with send -X, such as
copy-pipe-and-cancel.
* set-remain-on-exit has gone -- can be achieved with hooks instead.
* Hooks: before hooks have been removed and only a selection of commands now
have after hooks (they are no longer automatic). Additional hooks have been
added.
* The xterm-keys option now defaults to on.
Normal Changes
==============
* Support for mouse double and triple clicks.
* BCE (Background Colour Erase) is now supported.
* All occurrences of a search string in copy mode are now highlighted;
additionally, the number of search results is displayed. The highlighting
updates interactively with the default emacs key bindings (incremental
search).
* source-file now understands glob patterns.
* Formats now have simple comparisons:
#{==:a,b}
#{!=:a,b}
* There are the following new formats:
- #{version} -- the tmux server version;
- #{client_termtype} -- the terminal type of the client;
- #{client_name} -- the name of a client;
- #{client_written} -- the number of bytes written to the client.
* The configuration file now accepts %if/%endif conditional blocks which are
processed when it is parsed; the argument is a format string (useful with the
new format comparison options).
* detach-client now has -E to execute a command replacing the client instead of
exiting.
* Add support for custom command aliases, this is an array option which
contains items of the form "alias=command". This is consulted when an
unknown command is parsed.
* break-pane now has -n to specify the new window name.
* OSC 52 support has been added for programs inside tmux to set a tmux buffer.
* The mouse "all event" mode (1003) is now supported.
* Palette setting is now possible (OSC 4 and 104).
* Strikethrough support (a recent terminfo is required).
* Grouped sessions can now be named (new -t).
* terminal-overrides and update-environment are now array options (the previous
set -ag syntax should work without change).
* There have been substantial performance improvements.
CHANGES FROM 2.2 to 2.3 29 September 2016
Incompatible Changes
====================
None.
Normal Changes
==============
* New option 'pane-border-status' to add text in the pane borders.
* Support for hooks on commands: 'after' and 'before' hooks.
* 'source-file' understands '-q' to suppress errors for nonexistent files.
* Lots of UTF8 improvements, especially on MacOS.
* 'window-status-separator' understands #[] expansions.
* 'split-window' understands '-f' for performing a full-width split.
* Allow report count to be specified when using 'bind-key -R'.
* 'set -a' for appending to user options (@foo) is now supported.
* 'display-panes' can now accept a command to run, rather than always
selecting the pane.
Incompatible Changes
====================
* The format strings which referenced time have been removed. Instead:
#{t:window_activity}
can be used.
* Support for TMPDIR has been removed. Use TMUX_TMPDIR instead.
* UTF8 detection how happens automatically if the client supports it, hence
the:
mouse-utf8
utf8
options has been removed.
* The:
mouse_utf8_flag
format string has been removed.
* The -I option to show-messages has been removed. See:
#{t:start_time}
format option instead.
Normal Changes
==============
* Panes are unzoomed with selectp -LRUD
* New formats added:
#{scroll_position}
#{socket_path}
#{=10:...} -- limit to N characters (from the start)
#{=-10:...} -- limit to N characters (from the end)
#{t:...} -- used to format time-based formats
#{b:...} -- used to ascertain basename from string
#{d:...} -- used to ascertain dirname from string
#{s:...} -- used to perform substitutions on a string
* Job output is run via the format system, so formats work again
* If display-time is set to 0, then the indicators wait for a key to be
pressed.
* list-keys and list-commands can be run without starting the tmux server.
* kill-session learns -C to clear all alerts in all windows of the session.
* Support for hooks (internal for now), but hooks for the following have been
implemented:
alert-bell
alert-silence
alert-activity
client-attached
client-detached
client-resized
pane-died
pane-exited
* RGB (24bit) colour support. The 'Tc' flag must be set in the external TERM
entry (using terminal-overrides or a custom terminfo entry).
NOTE: This is a bug-fix release to address some important bugs which just
missed the 1.9 deadline, but were found afterwards.
Normal Changes
==============
* Fix crash due to uninitialized lastwp member of layout_cell
* Fix -fg/-bg/-style with 256 colour terminals.
CHANGES FROM 1.8 to 1.9, 20 February 2014
NOTE: This release has bumped the tmux protocol version. It is therefore
advised that the prior tmux server is restarted when this version of tmux is
installed, to avoid protocol mismatch errors for newer clients trying to
talk to an older running tmux server.
Incompatible Changes
====================
* 88 colour support has been removed.
* 'default-path' has been removed. The new-window command accepts '-c' to
cater for this. The previous value of "." can be replaced with: 'neww -c
$PWD', the previous value of '' which meant current path of the pane can
be specified as: 'neww -c "#{pane_current_path}"'
Deprecated Changes
==================
* The single format specifiers: #A -> #Z (where defined) have been
deprecated and replaced with longer-named equivalents, as listed in the
FORMATS section of the tmux manpage.
* The various foo-{fg,bg,attr} commands have been deprecated and replaced
with equivalent foo-style option instead. Currently this is still
backwards-compatible, but will be removed over time.
Normal Changes
==============
* A new environment variable TMUX_TMPDIR is now honoured, allowing the
socket directory to be set outside of TMPDIR (/tmp/ if not set).
* If -s not given to swap-pane the current pane is assumed.
* A #{pane_syncronized} format specifier has been added to be a conditional
format if a pane is in a syncronised mode (c.f. syncronize-panes)
* Tmux now runs under Cygwin natively.
* Formats can now be nested within each other and expanded accordingly.
* Added 'automatic-rename-format' option to allow the automatic rename
mechanism to use something other than the default of
#{pane_current_command}.
* new-session learnt '-c' to specify the starting directory for that session
and all subsequent windows therein.
* The session name is now shown in the message printed to the terminal when
a session is detached.
* Lots more format specifiers have been added.
* Server race conditions have been fixed; in particular commands are not run
until after the configuration file is read completely.
* Case insensitive searching in tmux's copy-mode is now possible.
* attach-session and switch-client learnt the '-t' option to accept a window
and/or a pane to use.
* Copy-mode is only exited if no selection is in progress.
* Paste key in copy-mode is now possible to enter text from the clipboard.
* status-interval set to '0' now works as intended.
* tmux now supports 256 colours running under fbterm.
* Many bug fixes!
CHANGES FROM 1.7 to 1.8, 26 March 2013

sequences, and '-a' to capture the alternate screen, and '-P' to dump
pending output.
* Many new formats added (client_session, client_last_session, etc.)
* Control mode, which is a way for a client to send tmux commands.
Currently more useful to users of iterm2.
* resize-pane learnt '-x' and '-y' for absolute pane sizing.
* Config file loading now reports errors from all files which are loaded via
the 'source-file' command.
* 'copy-pipe' mode command to copy selection and pipe the selection to a
command.
* Panes can now emit focus notifications for certain applications
which use those.
* run-shell and if-shell now accept formats.
* resize-pane learnt '-Z' for zooming a pane temporarily.
* new-session learnt '-A' to make it behave like attach-session.
* set-option learnt '-o' to prevent setting an option which is already set.
* capture-pane and show-options learns '-q' to silence errors.

the old form).
* Provide defined ways to set the various default-path possibilities: ~
for home directory, . for server start directory, - for session start
directory and empty for the pane's working directory (the default). All
can also be used as part of a relative path (eg -/foo). Also provide -c
flags to neww and splitw to override default-path setting.
* Add -l flag to send-keys to send input literally (without translating
key names).
* Allow a single option to be specified to show-options to show just that
option.
* New command "move-pane" (like join-pane but allows the same window).
* join-pane and move-pane commands learn "-b" option to place the pane to
the left or above.
* Support for bracketed-paste mode.
* Allow send-keys command to accept hex values.
* Add locking around "start-server" to avoid race-conditions.
* break-pane learns -P/-F arguments for display formatting.

* copy mode learns "wrap-search" option.
* Add a simple form of output rate limiting by counting the number of
certain C0 sequences (linefeeds, backspaces, carriage returns) and if it
exceeds a threshold (current default 250/millisecond), start to redraw
the pane every 100 milliseconds instead of making each change as it
comes. Two configuration options - c0-change-trigger and
c0-change-interval.
* find-window learns new flags: "-C", "-N", "-T" to match against either or
all of a window's content, name, or title. Defaults to all three options
if none specified.

a session when a window is closed. (see "move-window -r").
* Only enter copy-mode on scroll up.
* choose-* and list-* commands all use "-F" for format specifiers.
* When spawning external commands, the value from the "default-shell" option
is now used, rather than assuming /bin/sh.
* New choose-tree command to render window/sessions as a tree for selection.
* display-message learns new format options.
* For linked-windows across sessions, all flags for that window are now
cleared across sessions.
* Lots and lots of bug fixes, fixing memory-leaks, etc.
* Various manpage improvements.
CHANGES FROM 1.5 TO 1.6, 23 January 2012
* Extend the mode-mouse option to add a third choice which means the mouse
does not enter copy mode.
* Add a -r flag to switch-client to toggle the client read-only flag.
* Add pane-base-index option.
* Support \ for line continuation in the configuration file.
* Framework for more powerful formatting of command output and use it for
list-{panes,windows,sessions}. This allows more descriptive replacements
(such as #{session_name}) and conditionals.
* Mark dead panes with some text saying they are dead.
* Reject $SHELL if it is not a full path.
* Add -S option to refresh-client to redraw status line.
* Add an else clause for if-shell.
* Try to resolve relative paths for loadb and saveb (first, using client
working directory, if any, then default-path or session working directory).
* Support for \e[3J to clear the history and send the corresponding
terminfo code (E3) before locking.
* When in copy mode, make repeat count indicate buffer to replace, if used.
* Add screen*:XT to terminal-overrides for tmux-in-tmux.
* Status-line message attributes added.
* Move word-separators to be a session rather than window option.
* Change the way the working directory for new processes is discovered. If
default-path isn't empty, it is used. Otherwise, if a new window is created
from the command-line, the working directory of the client is used. If not,
platform specific code is used to retrieve the current working directory
of the process in the active pane. If that fails, the directory where the
session was created is used, instead.
* Do not change the current pane if both mouse-select-{pane,window} are
enabled.
* Add \033[s and \033[u to save and restore cursor position.
* Allow $HOME to be used as default-path.
* Add CNL and CPL escape sequences.
* Calculate last position correctly for UTF-8 wide characters.
* Add an option allow-rename to disable the window rename escape sequence.
* Attributes for each type of status-line alert (ie bell, content and
activity) added. Therefore, remove the superfluous options
window-status-alert-{attr,bg,fg}.
* Add a -R flag to send-keys to reset the terminal.
* Add strings to allow the aixterm bright colours to be used when
configuring colours.
* Drop the ability to have a list of keys in the prefix in favour of two
separate options, prefix and prefix2.
* Flag -2 added to send-prefix to send the secondary prefix key.
* Show pane size in top right of display panes mode.
* Some memory leaks plugged.
* More command-prompt editing improvements.
* Various manpage improvements.
* More Vi mode improvements.
NOTE: This is a bug-fix release to address some important bugs which just
missed the 1.9 deadline, but were found afterwards.
Normal Changes
==============
* Fix crash due to uninitialized lastwp member of layout_cell

CHANGES FROM 1.4 TO 1.5, 09 July 2011
* Support xterm mouse modes 1002 and 1003.
* Change from a per-session stack of buffers to one global stack. This renders
copy-buffer useless and makes buffer-limit now a server option.
* Fix most-recently-used choice by avoiding reset the activity timer for
unattached sessions every second.
* Add a -P option to new-window and split-window to print the new window or
pane index in target form (useful to pass it into other commands).
* Handle a # at the end of a replacement string (such as status-left)
correctly.
* Support for UTF-8 mouse input (\033[1005h) which was added in xterm 262.
If the new mouse-utf8 option is on, UTF-8 mouse input is enabled for all
UTF-8 terminals. The option defaults to on if LANG etc are set in the same
manner as the utf8 option.
* Support for HP-UX.
* Accept colours of the hex form #ffffff and translate to the nearest from the
xterm(1) 256-colour set.
* Clear the non-blocking IO flag (O_NONBLOCK) on the stdio file descriptors
before closing them (fixes things like "tmux ls && cat").
* Use TMPDIR if set.
* Fix next and previous session functions to actually work.
* Support -x and -y for new-session to specify the initial size of the window
if created detached with -d.
* Make bind-key accept characters with the top-bit-set and print them as octal.
* Set $TMUX without the session when background jobs are run.
* Simplify the way jobs work and drop the persist type, so all jobs are
fire-and-forget.
* Accept tcgetattr/tcsetattr(3) failure, fixes problems with fatal() if the
terminal disappears while locked.
* Add a -P option to detach to HUP the client's parent process (usually causing
it to exit as well).
* Support passing through escape sequences to the underlying terminal by using
DCS with a "tmux;" prefix.
* Prevent tiled producing a corrupt layout when only one column is needed.
* Give each pane created in a tmux server a unique id (starting from 0), put it
in the TMUX_PANE environment variable and accept it as a target.
* Allow a start and end line to be specified for capture-pane which may be
negative to capture part of the history.
* Add -a and -s options to lsp to list all panes in the server or session
respectively. Likewise add -s to lsw.
* Change -t on display-message to be target-pane for the #[A-Z] replacements
and add -c as target-client.
* The attach-session command now prefers the most recently used unattached
session.
* Add -s option to detach-client to detach all clients attached to a session.
* Add -t to list-clients.
* Change window with mouse wheel over status line if mouse-select-window is on.
* When mode-mouse is on, automatically enter copy mode when the mouse is
dragged or the mouse wheel is used. Also exit copy mode when the mouse wheel
is scrolled off the bottom.
* Provide #h character pair for short hostname (no domain).
* Don't use strnvis(3) for the title as it breaks UTF-8.
* Use the tsl and fsl terminfo(5) capabilities to update terminal title and
automatically fill them in on terminals with the XT capability (which means
their title setting is xterm-compatible).
* Add a new option, mouse-resize-pane. When on, panes may be resized by
dragging their borders.
* Fix crash by resetting last pane on {break,swap}-pane across windows.
* Add three new copy-mode commands - select-line, copy-line, copy-end-of-line.
* Support setting the xterm clipboard when copying from copy mode using the
xterm escape sequence for the purpose (if xterm is configured to allow it).
* Support xterm(1) cursor colour change sequences through terminfo(5) Cc
(set) and Cr (reset) extensions.
* Support DECSCUSR sequence to set the cursor style with two new terminfo(5)
extensions, Cs and Csr.
* Make the command-prompt custom prompts recognize the status-left option
character pairs.
* Add a respawn-pane command.
* Add a couple of extra xterm-style keys that gnome terminal provides.
* Allow the initial context on prompts to be set with the new -I option to
command-prompt. Include the current window and session name in the prompt
when renaming and add a new key binding ($) for rename session.
* Option bell-on-alert added to trigger the terminal bell when there is an
alert.
* Change the list-keys format so that it shows the keys using actual tmux
commands which should be able to be directly copied into the config file.
* Show full targets for lsp/lsw -a.
* Make confirm-before prompt customizable with -p option like command-prompt
and add the character pairs #W and #P to the default kill-{pane,window}
prompts.
* Avoid sending data to suspended/locked clients.
* Small memory leaks in error paths plugged.
* Vi mode improvements.
tmux is a "terminal multiplexer". It enables a number of terminals (or
windows) to be accessed and controlled from a single terminal. tmux is
intended to be a simple, modern, BSD-licensed alternative to programs
such as GNU screen.
The import of tmux is intended to replace window(1) in the not-too-distant
future. For reference, tmux is also present in the base system of FreeBSD
and OpenBSD.
