Useful Tmux Notes

• tmux new -s session_name -d To create a new session w/o attaching it.
• tmux new -s session_name -n window_name To create a new session and name the first window.
• send-keys -t session_name:window_index.pane_index 'cmd' C-m
  • This command allows us to execute a command in tmux session_name, in pand_index under window_index.
  • C-m is carriage return ENTER
  • For example, send-keys -t dev:1.2 'cd ~/Documents' C-m would change the directory to ~/Documents in dev session in pane index 2 under window index 1
