Tmux sessionist

Lightweight tmux utilities for manipulating tmux sessions.

Tested and working on Linux, OSX and Cygwin.

Sessions are a second class citizen in tmux environment:

there are no default key bindings for creating or deleting sessions
creating a session is cumbersome, just try tmux new-session -s name inside tmux (hint: you first have to detach)
deleting (killing) current session by default detaches tmux (why?)
no fast way for session switching when there's more than ~5 sessions

This plugin solves the above problems.

prefix + g - prompts for session name and switches to it. Performs 'kind-of' name completion.<br/> Faster than the built-in prefix + s prompt for long session lists.
prefix + C (shift + c) - prompt for creating a new session by name.
prefix + X (shift + x) - kill current session without detaching tmux.
prefix + S (shift + s) - switches to the last session.<br/> The same as built-in prefix + L that everyone seems to override with some other binding.
prefix + @ - promote current pane into a new session.<br/> Analogous to how prefix + ! breaks current pane to a new window.
prefix + ctrl-@ - promote current window into a new session.
prefix + t<secondary-key> - join currently marked pane (prefix + m) to current session/window, and switch to it
- secondary-keys
  - h, -, ": join horizontally
  - v, |, %: join vertically
  - f, @: join full screen

Add plugin to the list of TPM plugins in .tmux.conf:

set -g @plugin 'tmux-plugins/tmux-sessionist'

Hit prefix + I to fetch the plugin and source it. You can now use the plugin.

Clone the repo:

$ git clone https://github.com/tmux-plugins/tmux-sessionist ~/clone/path

Add this line to the bottom of .tmux.conf:

run-shell ~/clone/path/sessionist.tmux

Reload TMUX environment with $ tmux source-file ~/.tmux.conf. You can now use the plugin.
