Byobu + Tmux Tips # 2014-01-22

Scenario#1
    As a Byobu-Tmux user, I want to broadcast command to multiple panes. So that I don't have to do the same thing for each pane.

  • solution#1
    • enter command mode => PREFIX + :
    • active this feature => setw synchronize-panes on
    • deactive => setw synchronize-panes off
Scenario#2
    As a Byobu-Tmus user, I want to have a shortcut to maximize/minimize current pane. So that I can see/work on specific pane efficiently.
  • solution#1
    • edit ~/.byobu/keybindings.tmux
fill-in these code below

# maximum pane and restore
unbind +
bind + new-window -d -n tmux-zoom 'clear && echo TMUX ZOOM && read' \; swap-pane -s tmux-zoom.0 \; select-window -t tmux-zoom 
unbind - 
bind - last-window \; swap-pane -s tmux-zoom.0 \; kill-window -t tmux-zoom

# resize pane
bind H resize-pane -L 1
bind J resize-pane -D 1
bind K resize-pane -U 1
bind L resize-pane -R 1

Scenario#3
    As a Byobu-Tmux user, I want to copy/paste text in pane with mouse. So that I can make that info more productive.
  • solution
    • hold shift key that wipe need text with your mouse pointer
    • do middle click at your mouse
    • right-click then paste anywhere as you want
Scenario#4
    Reload tmux config

  • solution#1
    • enter command mode => PREFIX + :
    • source-file
