CHANGES FROM 3.1c TO 3.2
* Add a flag to disable keys to close a message.
* Permit shortcut keys in buffer, client, tree modes to be configured with a
format (-K flag to choose-buffer, choose-client, choose-tree).
* Add a current_file format for the config file being parsed.
* When display-message used in config file, show the message after the config
file finishes.
* Add client-detached notification in control mode.
* Improve performance of format evaluation.
* Make jump command support UTF-8 in copy mode.
* Support X11 colour names and other colour formats for OSC 10 and 11.
* Add "pipe" variants of "copy-pipe" commands which do not copy.
* Include "focused" in client flags.
* Send Unicode directional isolate characters around horizontal pane borders if
the terminal supports UTF-8 and an extension terminfo(5) capability "Bidi" is
present.
* Add a -S flag to new-window to make it select the existing window if one
with the given name already exists rather than failing with an error.
* Addd a format modifier to check if a window or session name exists (N/w or
N/s).
* Add compat clock_gettime for older macOS.
* Add a no-detached choice to detach-on-destroy which detaches only if there
are no other detached sessions to switch to.
* Add rectangle-on and rectangle-off copy mode commands.
* Change so that window_flags escapes # automatically. A new format
window_raw_flags contains the old unescaped version.
* Add -N flag to never start server even if command would normally do so.
* With incremental search, start empty and only repeat the previous search if
the user tries to search again with an empty prompt.
* Add a value for remain-on-exit that only keeps the pane if the program
failed.
* Add a -C flag to run-shell to use a tmux command rather than a shell command.
* Do not list user options with show-hooks.
* Remove current match indicator in copy mode which can't work anymore since we
only search the visible region.
* Make synchronize-panes a pane option and add -U flag to set-option to unset
an option on all panes.
* Make replacement of ##s consistent when drawing formats, whether followed by
[ or not. Add a flag (e) to the q: format modifier to double up #s
* Add -N flag to display-panes to ignore keys.
* Change how escaping is processed for formats so that ## and # can be used in
styles.
* Add a 'w' format modifier for string width.
* Add support for Haiku.
* Expand menu and popup -x and -y as formats.
* Add numeric comparisons for formats.
* Fire focus events even when the pane is in a mode.
* Add -O flag to display-menu to not automatically close when all mouse buttons
are released.
* Allow fnmatch(3) wildcards in update-environment.
* Disable nested job expansion so that the result of #() is not expanded again.
* Use the setal capability as well as (tmux's) Setulc.
* Add -q flag to unbind-key to hide errors.
* Allow -N without a command to change or add a note to an existing key.
* Add a -w flag to set- and load-buffer to send to clipboard using OSC 52.
* Add -F to set-environment and source-file.
* Allow colour to be spelt as color in various places.
* Add n: modifier to get length of a format.
* Respond to OSC colour requests if a colour is available.
* Add a -d option to display-message to set delay.
* Add a way for control mode clients to subscribe to a format and be notified
of changes rather than having to poll.
* Add some formats for search in copy mode (search_present, search_match).
* Do not wait on shutdown for commands started with run -b.
* Add -b flags to insert a window before (like the existing -a for after) to
break-pane, move-window, new-window.
* Make paste -p the default for ].
* Add support for pausing a pane when the output buffered for a control mode
client gets too far behind. The pause-after flag with a time is set on the
pane with refresh-client -f and a paused pane may be resumed with
refresh-client -A.
* Allow strings in configuration files to span multiple lines - newlines and
any leading whitespace are removed, as well as any following comments that
couldn't be part of a format. This allows long formats or other strings to be
annotated and indented.
* Instead of using a custom parse function to process {} in configuration
files, treat as a set of statements the same as outside {} and convert back
to a string as the last step. This means the rules are consistent inside and
outside {}, %if and friends work at the right time, and the final result
isn't littered with unnecessary newlines.
* Add support for extended keys - both xterm(1)'s CSI 27 ~ sequence and the
libtickit CSI u sequence are accepted; only the latter is output. tmux will
only attempt to use these if the extended-keys option is on and it can detect
that the terminal outside supports them (or is told it does with the
"extkeys" terminal feature).
* Add an option to set the pane border lines style from a choice of single
lines (ACS or UTF-8), double or heavy (UTF-8), simple (plain ASCII) or number
(the pane numbers). Lines that won't work on a non-UTF-8 terminal are
translated back into ACS when they are output.
* Make focus events update the latest client (like a key press).
* Store UTF-8 characters differently to reduce memory use.
* Fix break-pane -n when only one pane in the window.
* Instead of sending all data to control mode clients as fast as possible, add
a limit of how much data will be sent to the client and try to use it for
panes with some degree of fairness.
* Add an active-pane client flag (set with attach-session -f, new-session -f
or refresh-client -f). This allows a client to have an independent active
pane for interactive use (the window client pane is still used for many
things however).
* Add a mark to copy mode, this is set with the set-mark command (bound to X)
and appears with the entire line shown using copy-mode-mark-style and the
marked character in reverse. The jump-to-mark command (bound to M-x) swaps
the mark and the cursor positions.
* Add a -D flag to make the tmux server run in the foreground and not as a
daemon.
* Do not loop forever in copy mode when search finds an empty match.
* Fix the next-matching-bracket logic when using vi(1) keys.
* Add a customize mode where options may be browsed and changed, includes
adding a brief description of each option. Bound to C-b C by default.
* Change message log (C-b ~) so there is one for the server rather than one per
client and it remains after detach, and make it useful by logging every
command.
* Add M-+ and M-- to tree mode to expand and collapse all.
* Change the existing client flags for control mode to apply for any client,
use the same mechanism for the read-only flag and add an ignore-size flag.
refresh-client -F has become -f (-F stays for backwards compatibility) and
attach-session and switch-client now have -f flags also. A new format
client_flags lists the flags and is shown by list-clients by default.
This separates the read-only flag from "ignore size" behaviour (new
ignore-size) flag - both behaviours are useful in different circumstances.
attach -r and switchc -r remain and set or toggle both flags together.
* Store and restore cursor position when copy mode is resized.
* Export TERM_PROGRAM and TERM_PROGRAM_VERSION like various other terminals.
* Add formats for after hook command arguments: hook_arguments with all the
arguments together; hook_argument_0, hook_argument_1 and so on with
individual arguments; hook_flag_X if flag -X is present; hook_flag_X_0,
hook_flag_X_1 and so on if -X appears multiple times.
* Try to search the entire history first for up to 200 ms so a search count can
be shown. If it takes too long, search the visible text only.
* Use VIS_CSTYLE for paste buffers also (show \012 as \n).
* Change default formats for tree mode, client mode and buffer mode to be more
compact and remove some clutter.
* Add a key (e) in buffer mode to open the buffer in an editor. The buffer
contents is updated when the editor exits.
* Add -e flag for new-session to set environment variables, like the same flag
for new-window.
* Improve search match marking in copy mode. Two new options
copy-mode-match-style and copy-mode-current-match-style to set the style for
matches and for the current match respectively. Also a change so that if a
copy key is pressed with no selection, the current match (if any) is copied.
* Sanitize session names like window names instead of forbidding invalid ones.
* Check if the clear terminfo(5) capability starts with CSI and if so then
assume the terminal is VT100-like, rather than relying on the XT capability.
* Improve command prompt tab completion and add menus both for strings and -t
and -s (when used without a trailing space). command-prompt has additional
flags for only completing a window (-W) and a target (-T), allowing C-b ' to
only show windows and C-b . only targets.
* Change all the style options to string options so they can support formats.
Change pane-border-active-style to use this to change the border colour when
in a mode or with synchronize-panes on. This also implies a few minor changes
to existing behaviour:
- set-option -a with a style option automatically inserts a comma between the
old value and appended text.
- OSC 10 and 11 no longer set the window-style option, instead they store the
colour internally in the pane data and it is used as the default when the
option is evaluated.
- status-fg and -bg now override status-style instead of the option values
being changed.
* Add extension terminfo(5) capabilities for margins and focus reporting.
* Try $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/tmux/tmux.conf as well as ~/.config/tmux/tmux.conf for
configuration file (the search paths are in TMUX_CONF in Makefile.am).
* Remove the DSR 1337 iTerm2 extension and replace by the extended device
attributes sequence (CSI > q) supported by more terminals.
* Add a -s flag to copy-mode to specify a different pane for the source
content. This means it is possible to view two places in a pane's history at
the same time in different panes, or view the history while still using the
pane. Pressing r refreshes the content from the source pane.
* Add an argument to list-commands to show only a single command.
* Change copy mode to make copy of the pane history so it does not need to
freeze the pane.
* Restore pane_current_path format from portable tmux on OpenBSD.
* Wait until the initial command sequence is done before sending a device
attributes request and other bits that prompt a reply from the terminal. This
means that stray relies are not left on the terminal if the command has
attached and then immediately detached and tmux will not be around to receive
them.
* Add a -f filter argument to the list commands like choose-tree.
* Move specific hooks for panes to pane options and windows for window options
rather than all hooks being session options. These hooks are now window
options:
window-layout-changed
window-linked
window-pane-changed
window-renamed
window-unlinked
And these now pane options:
pane-died
pane-exited
pane-focus-in
pane-focus-out
pane-mode-changed
pane-set-clipboard
Any existing configurations using these hooks on a session rather than
globally (that is, set-hook or set-option without -g) may need to be changed.
* Show signal names when a process exits with remain-on-exit on platforms which
have a way to get them.
* Start menu with top item selected if no mouse and use mode-style for the
selected item.
* Add a copy-command option and change copy-pipe and friends to pipe to it if
used without arguments, allows all the default copy key bindings to be
changed to pipe with one option rather than needing to change each key
binding individually.
* Tidy up the terminal detection and feature code and add named sets of
terminal features, each of which are defined in one place and map to a
builtin set of terminfo(5) capabilities. Features can be specified based on
TERM with a new terminal-features option or with the -T flag when running
tmux. tmux will also detect a few common terminals from the DA and DSR
responses.
This is intended to make it easier to configure tmux's use of terminfo(5)
even in the presence of outdated ncurses(3) or terminfo(5) databases or for
features which do not yet have a terminfo(5) entry. Instead of having to grok
terminfo(5) capability names and what they should be set to in the
terminal-overrides option, the user can hopefully just give tmux a feature
name and let it do the right thing.
The terminal-overrides option remains both for backwards compatibility and to
allow tweaks of individual capabilities.
* Support mintty's application escape sequence (means tmux doesn't have to
delay to wait for Escape, so no need to reduce escape-time when using
mintty).
* Change so main-pane-width and height can be given as a percentage.
* Support for the iTerm2 synchronized updates feature (allows the terminal to
avoid unnecessary drawing while output is still in progress).
* Make the mouse_word and mouse_line formats work in copy mode and enable the
default pane menu in copy mode.
* Add a -T flag to resize-pane to trim lines below the cursor, moving lines out
of the history.
* Add a way to mark environment variables as "hidden" so they can be used by
tmux (for example in formats) but are not set in the environment for new
panes. set-environment and show-environment have a new -h flag and there is a
new %hidden statement for the configuration file.
* Change default position for display-menu -x and -y to centre rather than top
left.
* Add support for per-client transient popups, similar to menus but which are
connected to an external command (like a pane). These are created with new
command display-popup.
* Change double and triple click bindings so that only one is fired (previously
double click was fired on the way to triple click). Also add default double
and triple click bindings to copy the word or line under the cursor and
change the existing bindings in copy mode to do the same.
* Add a default binding for button 2 to paste.
* Add -d flag to run-shell to delay before running the command and allow it to
run without a command so it just delays.
* Add C-g to cancel command prompt with vi keys as well as emacs, and q in
command mode.
* When the server socket is given with -S, create it with umask 177 instead of
117 (because it may not be in a safe directory like the default directory in
/tmp).
* Add a copy-mode -H flag to hide the position marker in the top right.
* Add number operators for formats (+, -, *, / and m),

CHANGES FROM 2.5 TO 2.6, 05 October 2017

* Add select-pane -T to set pane title.

* Fix memory leak when lines with BCE are removed from history.

* Fix (again) the "prefer unattached" behaviour of attach-session.

* Reorder how keys are checked to allow keys to be specified that have a
leading escape. GitHub issue 1048.

* Support REP escape sequence (\033[b).

* Run alert hooks based on options rather than always, and allow further bells
even if there is an existing bell.

* Add -d flag to display-panes to override display-panes-time.

* Add selection_present format when in copy mode (allows key bindings that do
something different if there is a selection).

* Add pane_at_left, pane_at_right, pane_at_top and pane_at_bottom formats.

* Make bell, activity and silence alerting more consistent by: removing the
bell-on-alert option; adding activity-action and silence-action options with
the same possible values as the existing bell-action; adding a "both" value
for the visual-bell, visual-activity and visual-silence options to trigger
both a bell and a message.

* Add a pane_pipe format to show if pipe-pane is active.

* Block signals between forking and resetting signal handlers so that the
libevent signal handler doesn't get called in the child and incorrectly write
into the signal pipe that it still shares with the parent. GitHub issue 1001.

* Allow punctuation in pane_current_command.

* Add -c for respawn-pane and respawn-window.

* Wait for any remaining data to flush when a pane is closed while pipe-pane is
in use.

* Fix working out current client with no target. GitHub issue 995.

* Try to fallback to C.UTF-8 as well as en_US.UTF-8 when looking for a UTF-8
locale.

* Add user-keys option for user-defined key escape sequences (mapped to User0
to User999 keys).

* Add pane-set-clipboard hook.

* FAQ file has moved out of repository to online.

* Fix problem with high CPU usage when a client dies unexpectedly. GitHub issue
941.

* Do a dance on OS X 10.10 and above to return tmux to the user namespace,
allowing access to the clipboard.

* Do not allow escape sequences which expect a specific terminator (APC, DSC,
OSC) to wait for forever - use a small timeout. This reduces the chance of
the pane locking up completely when sent garbage (cat /dev/random or
similar).

* Support SIGUSR2 to toggle logging on a running server, also generate the
"out" log file with -vv not -vvvv.

* Make set-clipboard a three state option: on (tmux both sends to outside
terminal and accepts from applications inside); external (tmux sends outside
but does not accept inside); and off.

* Fix OSC 4 palette setting for bright foreground colours. GitHub issue 954.

* Use setrgbf and setrgbb terminfo(5) capabilities to set RGB colours, if they
are available. (Tc is still supported as well.)

* Fix redrawing panes when they are resized several times but end up with the
size unchanged (for example, splitw/resizep -Z/breakp).

* Major rewrite of choose mode. Now includes preview, sorting, searching and
tagging; commands that can be executed directly from the mode (for example,
to delete one or more buffers); and filtering in tree mode.

* choose-window and choose-session are now aliases of choose-tree (in the
command-alias option).

* Support OSC 10 and OSC 11 to set foreground and background colours.

* Check the U8 capability to determine whether to use UTF-8 line drawing
characters for ACS.

* Some missing notifications for layout changes.

* Control mode clients now do not affect session sizes until they issue
refresh-client -C. new-session -x and -y works with control clients even if
the session is not detached.

* All new sessions that are unattached (whether with -d or started with no
terminal) are now created with size 80 x 24. Whether the status line is on or
off does not affect the size of new sessions until they are attached.

* Expand formats in option names and add -F flag to expand them in option values.

* Remember the search string for a pane even if copy mode is exited and entered
again.

* Some further BCE fixes (scroll up, reverse index).

* Improvements to how terminals are cleared (entirely or partially).

CHANGES FROM 2.4 TO 2.5, 09 May 2017

* Reset updated flag when restarting #() command so that new output is properly
recognised. GitHub issue 922.

* Fix ECH with a background colour.

* Do not rely on the terminal not moving the cursor after DL or EL.

* Fix send-keys and send-prefix in copy-mode (so C-b C-b works). GitHub issue
905.

* Set the current pane for rotate-window so it works in command sequences.

* Add pane_mode format.

* Differentiate M-Up from Escape+Up when possible (that is, in terminals with
xterm(1) style function keys). GitHub issue 907.

* Add session_stack and window_stack_index formats.

* Some new control mode notifications and corresponding hooks:
pane-mode-changed, window-pane-changed, client-session-changed,
session-window-changed.

* Format pane_search_string for last search term while in copy mode (useful
with command-prompt -I).

* Fix a problem with high CPU usage and multiple clients with #(). GitHub issue
889.

* Fix UTF-8 combining characters in column 0.

* Fix reference counting so that panes are properly destroyed and their
processes killed.

* Clamp SU (CSI S) parameter to work around a bug in Konsole.

* Tweak line wrapping in full width panes to play more nicely with terminal
copy and paste.

* Fix when we emit SGR 0 in capture-pane -e.

* Do not change TERM until after config file parsing has finished, so that
commands run inside the config file can use it to make decisions (typically
about default-terminal).

* Make the initial client wait until config file parsing has finished to avoid
racing with commands.

* Fix core when if-shell fails.

* Only use ED to clear screen if the pane is at the bottom.

* Fix multibyte UTF-8 output.

* Code improvements around target (-t) resolution.

* Change how the default target (for commands without -t) is managed across
command sequences: now it is set up at the start and commands are required
to update it if needed. Fixes binding command sequences to mouse keys.

* Make if-shell from the config file work correctly.

* Change to always check the root key table if no binding is found in the
current table (prefix table or copy-mode table or whatever). This means that
root key bindings will take effect even in copy mode, if not overridden by a
copy mode key binding.

* Fix so that the history file works again.

* Run config file without a client rather than using the first client, restores
previous behaviour.

* If a #() command doesn't exit, continue to read from it and use its last full
line of output.

* Handle slow terminals and fast output better: when the amount of data
outstanding gets too large, discard output until it is drained and we are
able to do a full redraw. Prevents tmux sitting on a huge buffer that the
terminal will take forever to consume.

* Do not redraw a client unless we realistically think it can accept the data -
defer redraws until the client has nothing else waiting to write.

* Add a way for control mode clients to subscribe to a format and be notified
of changes rather than having to poll.
* Add some formats for search in copy mode (search_present, search_match).
* Do not wait on shutdown for commands started with run -b.
* Add -b flags to insert a window before (like the existing -a for after) to
break-pane, move-window, new-window.
* Make paste -p the default for ].
* Add support for pausing a pane when the output buffered for a control mode
client gets too far behind. The pause-after flag with a time is set on the
pane with refresh-client -f and a paused pane may be resumed with
refresh-client -A.
* Allow strings in configuration files to span multiple lines - newlines and
any leading whitespace are removed, as well as any following comments that
couldn't be part of a format. This allows long formats or other strings to be
annotated and indented.
* Instead of using a custom parse function to process {} in configuration
files, treat as a set of statements the same as outside {} and convert back
to a string as the last step. This means the rules are consistent inside and
outside {}, %if and friends work at the right time, and the final result
isn't littered with unnecessary newlines.
* Add support for extended keys - both xterm(1)'s CSI 27 ~ sequence and the
libtickit CSI u sequence are accepted; only the latter is output. tmux will
only attempt to use these if the extended-keys option is on and it can detect
that the terminal outside supports them (or is told it does with the
"extkeys" terminal feature).
* Add an option to set the pane border lines style from a choice of single
lines (ACS or UTF-8), double or heavy (UTF-8), simple (plain ASCII) or number
(the pane numbers). Lines that won't work on a non-UTF-8 terminal are
translated back into ACS when they are output.
* Make focus events update the latest client (like a key press).
* Store UTF-8 characters differently to reduce memory use.
* Fix break-pane -n when only one pane in the window.
* Instead of sending all data to control mode clients as fast as possible, add
a limit of how much data will be sent to the client and try to use it for
panes with some degree of fairness.
* Add an active-pane client flag (set with attach-session -f, new-session -f
or refresh-client -f). This allows a client to have an independent active
pane for interactive use (the window client pane is still used for many
things however).
* Add a mark to copy mode, this is set with the set-mark command (bound to X)
and appears with the entire line shown using copy-mode-mark-style and the
marked character in reverse. The jump-to-mark command (bound to M-x) swaps
the mark and the cursor positions.
* Add a -D flag to make the tmux server run in the foreground and not as a
daemon.
* Do not loop forever in copy mode when search finds an empty match.
* Fix the next-matching-bracket logic when using vi(1) keys.
* Add a customize mode where options may be browsed and changed, includes
adding a brief description of each option. Bound to C-b C by default.
* Change message log (C-b ~) so there is one for the server rather than one per
client and it remains after detach, and make it useful by logging every
command.
* Add M-+ and M-- to tree mode to expand and collapse all.
* Change the existing client flags for control mode to apply for any client,
use the same mechanism for the read-only flag and add an ignore-size flag.
refresh-client -F has become -f (-F stays for backwards compatibility) and
attach-session and switch-client now have -f flags also. A new format
client_flags lists the flags and is shown by list-clients by default.
This separates the read-only flag from "ignore size" behaviour (new
ignore-size) flag - both behaviours are useful in different circumstances.
attach -r and switchc -r remain and set or toggle both flags together.
* Store and restore cursor position when copy mode is resized.
* Export TERM_PROGRAM and TERM_PROGRAM_VERSION like various other terminals.
* Add formats for after hook command arguments: hook_arguments with all the
arguments together; hook_argument_0, hook_argument_1 and so on with
individual arguments; hook_flag_X if flag -X is present; hook_flag_X_0,
hook_flag_X_1 and so on if -X appears multiple times.
* Try to search the entire history first for up to 200 ms so a search count can
be shown. If it takes too long, search the visible text only.
* Use VIS_CSTYLE for paste buffers also (show \012 as \n).
* Change default formats for tree mode, client mode and buffer mode to be more
compact and remove some clutter.
* Add a key (e) in buffer mode to open the buffer in an editor. The buffer
contents is updated when the editor exits.
* Add -e flag for new-session to set environment variables, like the same flag
for new-window.
* Improve search match marking in copy mode. Two new options
copy-mode-match-style and copy-mode-current-match-style to set the style for
matches and for the current match respectively. Also a change so that if a
copy key is pressed with no selection, the current match (if any) is copied.
* Sanitize session names like window names instead of forbidding invalid ones.
* Check if the clear terminfo(5) capability starts with CSI and if so then
assume the terminal is VT100-like, rather than relying on the XT capability.
* Improve command prompt tab completion and add menus both for strings and -t
and -s (when used without a trailing space). command-prompt has additional
flags for only completing a window (-W) and a target (-T), allowing C-b ' to
only show windows and C-b . only targets.
* Change all the style options to string options so they can support formats.
Change pane-border-active-style to use this to change the border colour when
in a mode or with synchronize-panes on. This also implies a few minor changes
to existing behaviour:
- set-option -a with a style option automatically inserts a comma between the
old value and appended text.
- OSC 10 and 11 no longer set the window-style option, instead they store the
colour internally in the pane data and it is used as the default when the
option is evaluated.
- status-fg and -bg now override status-style instead of the option values
being changed.
* Add extension terminfo(5) capabilities for margins and focus reporting.
* Try $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/tmux/tmux.conf as well as ~/.config/tmux/tmux.conf for
configuration file (the search paths are in TMUX_CONF in Makefile.am).
* Remove the DSR 1337 iTerm2 extension and replace by the extended device
attributes sequence (CSI > q) supported by more terminals.
* Add a -s flag to copy-mode to specify a different pane for the source
content. This means it is possible to view two places in a pane's history at
the same time in different panes, or view the history while still using the
pane. Pressing r refreshes the content from the source pane.
* Add an argument to list-commands to show only a single command.
* Change copy mode to make copy of the pane history so it does not need to
freeze the pane.
* Restore pane_current_path format from portable tmux on OpenBSD.
* Wait until the initial command sequence is done before sending a device
attributes request and other bits that prompt a reply from the terminal. This
means that stray relies are not left on the terminal if the command has
attached and then immediately detached and tmux will not be around to receive
them.
* Add a -f filter argument to the list commands like choose-tree.
* Move specific hooks for panes to pane options and windows for window options
rather than all hooks being session options. These hooks are now window
options:
window-layout-changed
window-linked
window-pane-changed
window-renamed
window-unlinked
And these now pane options:
pane-died
pane-exited
pane-focus-in
pane-focus-out
pane-mode-changed
pane-set-clipboard
Any existing configurations using these hooks on a session rather than
globally (that is, set-hook or set-option without -g) may need to be changed.
* Show signal names when a process exits with remain-on-exit on platforms which
have a way to get them.
* Start menu with top item selected if no mouse and use mode-style for the
selected item.
* Add a copy-command option and change copy-pipe and friends to pipe to it if
used without arguments, allows all the default copy key bindings to be
changed to pipe with one option rather than needing to change each key
binding individually.
* Tidy up the terminal detection and feature code and add named sets of
terminal features, each of which are defined in one place and map to a
builtin set of terminfo(5) capabilities. Features can be specified based on
TERM with a new terminal-features option or with the -T flag when running
tmux. tmux will also detect a few common terminals from the DA and DSR
responses.
This is intended to make it easier to configure tmux's use of terminfo(5)
even in the presence of outdated ncurses(3) or terminfo(5) databases or for
features which do not yet have a terminfo(5) entry. Instead of having to grok
terminfo(5) capability names and what they should be set to in the
terminal-overrides option, the user can hopefully just give tmux a feature
name and let it do the right thing.
The terminal-overrides option remains both for backwards compatibility and to
allow tweaks of individual capabilities.
* Support mintty's application escape sequence (means tmux doesn't have to
delay to wait for Escape, so no need to reduce escape-time when using
mintty).
* Change so main-pane-width and height can be given as a percentage.
* Support for the iTerm2 synchronized updates feature (allows the terminal to
avoid unnecessary drawing while output is still in progress).
* Make the mouse_word and mouse_line formats work in copy mode and enable the
default pane menu in copy mode.
* Add a -T flag to resize-pane to trim lines below the cursor, moving lines out
of the history.
* Add a way to mark environment variables as "hidden" so they can be used by
tmux (for example in formats) but are not set in the environment for new
panes. set-environment and show-environment have a new -h flag and there is a
new %hidden statement for the configuration file.
* Change default position for display-menu -x and -y to centre rather than top
left.
* Add support for per-client transient popups, similar to menus but which are
connected to an external command (like a pane). These are created with new
command display-popup.
* Change double and triple click bindings so that only one is fired (previously
double click was fired on the way to triple click). Also add default double
and triple click bindings to copy the word or line under the cursor and
change the existing bindings in copy mode to do the same.
* Add a default binding for button 2 to paste.
* Add -d flag to run-shell to delay before running the command and allow it to
run without a command so it just delays.
* Add C-g to cancel command prompt with vi keys as well as emacs, and q in
command mode.
* When the server socket is given with -S, create it with umask 177 instead of
117 (because it may not be in a safe directory like the default directory in
/tmp).
* Add a copy-mode -H flag to hide the position marker in the top right.
* Add number operators for formats (+, -, *, / and m),

CHANGES FROM 2.5 TO 2.6, 05 October 2017

* Add select-pane -T to set pane title.

* Fix memory leak when lines with BCE are removed from history.

* Fix (again) the "prefer unattached" behaviour of attach-session.

* Reorder how keys are checked to allow keys to be specified that have a
leading escape. GitHub issue 1048.

* Support REP escape sequence (\033[b).

* Run alert hooks based on options rather than always, and allow further bells
even if there is an existing bell.

* Add -d flag to display-panes to override display-panes-time.

* Add selection_present format when in copy mode (allows key bindings that do
something different if there is a selection).

* Add pane_at_left, pane_at_right, pane_at_top and pane_at_bottom formats.

* Make bell, activity and silence alerting more consistent by: removing the
bell-on-alert option; adding activity-action and silence-action options with
the same possible values as the existing bell-action; adding a "both" value
for the visual-bell, visual-activity and visual-silence options to trigger
both a bell and a message.

* Add a pane_pipe format to show if pipe-pane is active.

* Block signals between forking and resetting signal handlers so that the
libevent signal handler doesn't get called in the child and incorrectly write
into the signal pipe that it still shares with the parent. GitHub issue 1001.

* Allow punctuation in pane_current_command.

* Add -c for respawn-pane and respawn-window.

* Wait for any remaining data to flush when a pane is closed while pipe-pane is
in use.

* Fix working out current client with no target. GitHub issue 995.

* Try to fallback to C.UTF-8 as well as en_US.UTF-8 when looking for a UTF-8
locale.

* Add user-keys option for user-defined key escape sequences (mapped to User0
to User999 keys).

* Add pane-set-clipboard hook.

* FAQ file has moved out of repository to online.

* Fix problem with high CPU usage when a client dies unexpectedly. GitHub issue
941.

* Do a dance on OS X 10.10 and above to return tmux to the user namespace,
allowing access to the clipboard.

* Do not allow escape sequences which expect a specific terminator (APC, DSC,
OSC) to wait for forever - use a small timeout. This reduces the chance of
the pane locking up completely when sent garbage (cat /dev/random or
similar).

* Support SIGUSR2 to toggle logging on a running server, also generate the
"out" log file with -vv not -vvvv.

* Make set-clipboard a three state option: on (tmux both sends to outside
terminal and accepts from applications inside); external (tmux sends outside
but does not accept inside); and off.

* Fix OSC 4 palette setting for bright foreground colours. GitHub issue 954.

* Use setrgbf and setrgbb terminfo(5) capabilities to set RGB colours, if they
are available. (Tc is still supported as well.)

* Fix redrawing panes when they are resized several times but end up with the
size unchanged (for example, splitw/resizep -Z/breakp).

* Major rewrite of choose mode. Now includes preview, sorting, searching and
tagging; commands that can be executed directly from the mode (for example,
to delete one or more buffers); and filtering in tree mode.

* choose-window and choose-session are now aliases of choose-tree (in the
command-alias option).

* Support OSC 10 and OSC 11 to set foreground and background colours.

* Check the U8 capability to determine whether to use UTF-8 line drawing
characters for ACS.

* Some missing notifications for layout changes.

* Control mode clients now do not affect session sizes until they issue
refresh-client -C. new-session -x and -y works with control clients even if
the session is not detached.

* All new sessions that are unattached (whether with -d or started with no
terminal) are now created with size 80 x 24. Whether the status line is on or
off does not affect the size of new sessions until they are attached.

* Expand formats in option names and add -F flag to expand them in option values.

* Remember the search string for a pane even if copy mode is exited and entered
again.

* Some further BCE fixes (scroll up, reverse index).

* Improvements to how terminals are cleared (entirely or partially).

CHANGES FROM 2.4 TO 2.5, 09 May 2017

* Reset updated flag when restarting #() command so that new output is properly
recognised. GitHub issue 922.

* Fix ECH with a background colour.

* Do not rely on the terminal not moving the cursor after DL or EL.

* Fix send-keys and send-prefix in copy-mode (so C-b C-b works). GitHub issue
905.

* Set the current pane for rotate-window so it works in command sequences.

* Add pane_mode format.

* Differentiate M-Up from Escape+Up when possible (that is, in terminals with
xterm(1) style function keys). GitHub issue 907.

* Add session_stack and window_stack_index formats.

* Some new control mode notifications and corresponding hooks:
pane-mode-changed, window-pane-changed, client-session-changed,
session-window-changed.

* Format pane_search_string for last search term while in copy mode (useful
with command-prompt -I).

* Fix a problem with high CPU usage and multiple clients with #(). GitHub issue
889.

* Fix UTF-8 combining characters in column 0.

* Fix reference counting so that panes are properly destroyed and their
processes killed.

* Clamp SU (CSI S) parameter to work around a bug in Konsole.

* Tweak line wrapping in full width panes to play more nicely with terminal
copy and paste.

* Fix when we emit SGR 0 in capture-pane -e.

* Do not change TERM until after config file parsing has finished, so that
commands run inside the config file can use it to make decisions (typically
about default-terminal).

* Make the initial client wait until config file parsing has finished to avoid
racing with commands.

* Fix core when if-shell fails.

* Only use ED to clear screen if the pane is at the bottom.

* Fix multibyte UTF-8 output.

* Code improvements around target (-t) resolution.

* Change how the default target (for commands without -t) is managed across
command sequences: now it is set up at the start and commands are required
to update it if needed. Fixes binding command sequences to mouse keys.

* Make if-shell from the config file work correctly.

* Change to always check the root key table if no binding is found in the
current table (prefix table or copy-mode table or whatever). This means that
root key bindings will take effect even in copy mode, if not overridden by a
copy mode key binding.

* Fix so that the history file works again.

* Run config file without a client rather than using the first client, restores
previous behaviour.

* If a #() command doesn't exit, continue to read from it and use its last full
line of output.

* Handle slow terminals and fast output better: when the amount of data
outstanding gets too large, discard output until it is drained and we are
able to do a full redraw. Prevents tmux sitting on a huge buffer that the
terminal will take forever to consume.

* Do not redraw a client unless we realistically think it can accept the data -
defer redraws until the client has nothing else waiting to write.
