Hi,

I've just upgraded my ubuntu installation from 16.04 to 16.10 and the battery status is now missing, running:

cut -c3- ~/.tmux.conf | sh -s _battery

Returns:

sh: 343: [: Illegal number: %d9.7
sh: 345: Illegal number: %d9.7

cat /sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/capacity

returns 97.

Hi, would you know what could be cause of the behavior as shown in the screenshot?

I have used tmux for years but I moved to your config and suddenly it started behaving... awkwardly as you can see, with double/tripple status bar etc.

I am using latest Ubuntu 16.10 with latest bash, tmux 2.2 and latest code of gpakosz/.tmux

It's working fine! but when I source the config file I get this:

❯ . ~/.tmux.conf
/Users/mz/.tmux.conf:8: command not found: setw
/Users/mz/.tmux.conf:14: command not found: bind
/Users/mz/.tmux.conf:19: command not found: bind
/Users/mz/.tmux.conf:22: command not found: bind
/Users/mz/.tmux.conf:534: parse error near `\n'

Is it possible to add custom status elements without overriding .tmux.conf — i.e. inside the .tmux.conf.local?

Case in point, I’d like to add dickeyxxx/tmux-spotify-info. If I’m reading the .tmux.conf correctly this isn’t currently possible. Could this maybe be added?

Here’s a quick’n’dirty example of an implementation. The delimiters are a bit tricky so I left them out for now:

With this, I can just add the following line to my .tmux.conf.local:

tmux_conf_extra_right='#(~/.tmux/tmux-spotify-info)'

Ideally this would be an array and .tmux.conf would add the necessary delimiters.

There is a broken link in the README.md: fonts patched with powerline symbols

It will be cool if we can have internet speed on the status line

I have
tmux_conf_theme_clock_style='12'

But the clock is still in 24hr.
I know, dirty American.

What's wrong is this? How to fix it?

I follow your steps, and nothing happened, may i ask why your file with "#", does it makes any sence?

I’m following the instructions from the readme file to install the configuration. However, when I then start tmux, it seems like not all of the configuration was loaded. Most strikingly, the powerline-inspired status bar isn’t displayed. Other options, such as renumber-windows, are also not enabled. Starting via tmux -f ~/.tmux.conf makes no difference.

In fact, I cannot see any difference before and after soft-linking ~/.tmux/.tmux.conf into ~.

tmux -V outputs:

tmux 1.9a

In fact, this .tmux config used to work, and I think it stopped working after the tmux version was updated on the system (RHEL 6).

In case that helps, tmux -vvv outputs

got 203 from server

Hello there!

How can I add/remove things to the status line in a way that doesn't break everything?

Adding modifications to .tmux.conf.local not only completely overrides everything, but is also overriden in the next second by the default

The behavior (blinking) is shown in https://ptpb.pw/YSSL.webm

Error msg is

When you run tmux as the shell in a terminal emulator, i.e. without running bash/zsh/etc first, the status line doesn't get changed from the default one. Is this expected behavior or is there a way to still apply your script?

I noticed this script has several helper bash functions stored as functions in the .tmux.conf, and it makes use of the cut command to run them.

My question is:

Why is it done that way, rather than storing them in a separate file?
Is there any technical limitation?

Some of the colours like the tmux_conf_theme_username_bg, for example, can't be overwritten using the tmux.conf.local file.

this fixes the issue:

Toggling maximize_pane() has no effect when other session already contains a maximized window.

Hello guys

I am having some issues running .tmux on iterm2 Build 3.0.12

I have random duplicate status bar like shown in this screen shot attached here

It works perfectly with native Term app though

I'm aware this is an annoying and perhaps minor issue, but I've been googling for multiple hours now without a solution.

Here is what's wrong: The symbols, that if I understood correctly are introduced when patching a font, are not displaying for me. Others, however, work without problem, such as the battery symbol. Please have a look at the screenshot to see what I mean.

https://s9.postimg.org/ki2d54szz/powerline_issue.png

I checked font settings and encoding settings (UTF-8) in iTerm2 (which I'm mainly using). I also tried different patched fonts, including Source Code and Meslo, both show the same behavior. I checked locale, which for some reason is empty but I haven't been able to define it permanently. Don't know if that's important. I'm sure I've tried other things but forgot about it since they also didn't fix the problem.

Any what it could be or how to narrow the source down? I didn't run into this issue with the tmux-powerline repository maintained by erikw, which is why I suspect it's the config, but I don't know enough about it to be sure.

I tried <prefix> Enter, but what is next?

How about add functionality to kill pane?

The status line doesn't show most of the time and most of the stuff doesn't allign.

Hey there,

Was wondering if you could help me. When I use the package I end up having an issue where the statusline disappears sometimes and other times it stacks on itself after a few seconds (so I have multiple status lines covering the bottom part of my screen. I've isolated the issue to within the _apply_theme but am not sure how to move forward since I'm not even sure what's happening. It's probably related to status line but I think there might also be issues with just the encoding and all that

As is describe here : #39

it is happening to me:

ZSH: Antigen
Theme: https://github.com/sindresorhus/pure
iTerm: Build 3.1.20170323-nightly
TMUX: tmux 2.3
macOS: Sierra 10.12.3

Hi, I just want know how to change the colour of "highlight of focused pane"? The default colour is to light for me.

This is more of a tip than an issue. Also I haven't tried your config yet, but thought you might find this info useful.

Basically, since v1.8 Tmux has supported a native pane maximizing (changelog). Personally I didn't notice until v1.9 was released, as it's tucked away within the resize-pane command. Specifically resize-pane -Z will toggle the current pane between normal state and maximized/zoomed state.

So my suggestion is, update your maximize_pane function to just call tmux resize-pane -Z if the current Tmux version is 1.8 or later.

As performing version comparisons in bash so you can determine if it's 1.8 or later, I've had that same issue myself, and here's the solution I came to:
https://github.com/jimeh/tmuxifier/blob/master/libexec/tmuxifier-tmux-version

And here's an example of using it:
https://github.com/jimeh/tmuxifier/blob/33f26bca564329fad094f25a8d38af042b85dadc/lib/layout-helpers.sh#L236-L255

when i use my touch pas to switch panel, C-a + m is already.

can join this feature ?

I'm not sure if fish shell has something to do with this issue.

Hi,

I was reading your post about the maximize pane to a new window and it seems to come close to something im interested in. I started using a 4k monitor recently. When I maximize my tmux pane, all of the text goes very far to the left since the high resolution can fit so many panes. This has been straining my neck. What I'd like is to be able to center the zoomed pane in my monitor. Have you thought about this at all? Is it possible doing something like your maximize_pane() function?

thanks

run '~/.tmux/plugins/tpm/tpm'

This was the code I added to .tmux.conf.local at the bottom. But it seems that tpm could't run as I expected.

When I added the code to .tmux.conf and reloaded the configuration，the error below was throwed：

'cut -c3- ~/.tmux.conf | sh -s _apply_configuration' returned 127

But the strange thing was that I could use plugin of tmux normally this time. Spliting new pane would also throw the error.

How could I fix the error ? Any suggestion would be appreciated.

In tmux version 2.4 there were some changes to key bindings (at least for vi-copy mode)
(I think commit: 76d6d3641f271be1756e41494960d96714e7ee58 for https://github.com/tmux/tmux)

of the ones that I am aware, is that the name for the key table 'vi-copy' was changed to 'copy-mode-vi' and to trigger the commands need to use the send-keys command

workaround (for users) is to rewrite the keybindings in .tmux.conf.local
examples:
unbind-key -T copy-mode-vi Escape
bind-key -T copy-mode-vi Escape send-keys -X cancel

bind-key -T copy-mode-vi v send-keys -X begin-selection
bind-key -T copy-mode-vi V send-keys -X rectangle-toggle

bind-key -T copy-mode-vi y send-keys -X copy-pipe-and-cancel 'xclip -in -selection clipboard'

hi, i do this:

• 1, install the tmux sudo apt-get install tmux
  • and it is tmux2.0
• 2, install powerline pip install powerline-status and sudo apt-get install powerline
• 3, install your config just like readme 1, 2, 3, 4
• 4, I change some config as readme
• then I restart terminal and turn into tmux but it does not work at all, just like the original tmux
• and Why?
• anyway, Thx!

I've uncommented

tmux_conf_theme=powerline_patched_font

Reloaded my tmux conf

Downloaded and installed my powerline patched fonts of choice from here:
https://github.com/Lokaltog/powerline-fonts

I've set the fonts in iterm2 to use the new font (for regular and on-ascii)

Yet I'm seeing '?' characters instead of powerline symbols.

Sorry if this isn't the appropriate place to ask this, but have I missed something?

Thanks.

When running tmux v2.2 with this .tmux configuration under MSYS2,
CPU usage goes russian mountains, with big spikes attributed to a system process.

This doesn't happen when running tmux without this .tmux.conf .

I suspect an issue with some system call such as battery level.

I use <prefix>M to try to toggle mouse mode. Unfortunately, this is what I got

'cut -c3- ~/.tmux.conf | sh -s toggle_mouse' returned 1

And mouse mode was not triggered.

I am on OSX 10.10.5 and have zsh

Hi,
How can I disable the GNU-Screen compatible prefix via .tmux.conf.local?
Thanks

I was able to go to copy mode but the vim binding doesn't seem to work. I tried pressing 'v' in copy mode but it won't highlight the parts i want to copy. Also the top right box is stuck at 0/0.

Hello,

How do I go back from your config to one of mine? I've removed ~/.tmux.conf* and restored my original config. Reloaded w/ C-a+r but I still see stausbar items in there (although key mapping is now restored).

Some of us have multiple batteries in our laptops. Would be great to be able to pin battery id, or the conf dynamically show level for all combined.

What am I doing wrong :O ? Installed powerline and it looks like this :/ And why don't I have any colors in my bash?
Thanks for the conf file!

Currently, the clipboard feature using reattach-to-user-namespace only works on a local tmux session.

There are a few possible ways to enable this to work over a remote tmux session. Is it possible to enable this within .tmux

I added following lines in ~/.tmux.conf.local to change border color, but it does not take effect, am I missing anything?

set -g pane-border-fg green
set -g pane-border-bg black
set -g pane-active-border-fg white
set -g pane-active-border-bg yellow

First off, this may be a font issue rather than a tmux configuration issue and if so, I apologize for wasting your time.

Now, onto the actual problem. When using the Hack font (http://github.com/chrissimpkins/Hack) with your theme, the left separator doesn't want to display even though the font supports the left separator. I've included screenshots of what it looks like in the tmux theme and with the font supporting the character via echoing it to the terminal window.

Let me know if you have any other steps I should do to troubleshoot this.

Thanks!

When I use tab to scroll through autocomplete options and try to select them it does not work correctly. I have noticed at the bottom right I can "^I" so I am assuming for some reason it is trying to use call C-i .

Note: I am using neovim. It seems that setting setw -g mode-keys vi will give me the correct selection, but there is still the lag time as it tries to process ^I then uses tab.

Thank you for your great tmux config.

This configuration makes tmux unusable under WSL.
Commenting out "set -s escape-time 0" solves the issue.

I have installed powerline and powerline fonts. I use Agnoster theme for Oh-My-Zsh. It works fine. But in tmux I am not able to use powerline. I installed your configuration in tmux 2.3 and I getting different output.

This is my output.

I run in Ubuntu Gnome 16.04.

why not add the screenshot to the readme.md ,and it would be better with the url
thank you!

First of all, thanks for your work.

I enabled tmux_conf_theme_username and tmux_conf_theme_hostname. It shows my local username, but when I access a server using SSH it doesn't change the username and hostname even after restarting tmux.

Any ideas about what I should do?

I'm using tmux 2.1 on OS X.
