fmux

Function-key enabled terminal MUltipleXer enhancements

This project implements byobu-like function key bindings for common tmux commands, but without as much overhead as byobu. It also adds some useful status-bar widgets on the right, implemented with a bash script.

Key bindings

I've added the most common/useful F-key shortcuts for moving between tmux windows, as well as splitting existing windows into panes with Ctrl-b | and Ctrl-b -.

In case any of these bindings interfere with other commands, they can be temporarily toggled on or off with Shfit-F12.

Installation

  1. Clone this repository to your home folder.
  2. Establish a symbolic link from the tmux.conf file in the repository folder your home folder: ln -s /home/$USER/fmux/tmux.conf /home/$USER/.tmux.conf If your tmux version is 2.9 or greater, use tmux-2.9.conf instead. Version 2.9 introduced some breaking changes to the style formatting.
  3. Start a new tmux session, or reload the configuration file in existing session(s).
