additional payload (to reduce problems with lifetime of objects) and are
delivered to one or more event sinks. This is more powerful and reduces the
complex dependencies between control mode and hooks. Events are now used for
hooks, control mode notifications and for monitors (set-hook -B).
wait-for can now wait for an event to fire (-E flag, with -F to for filter),
with -v to print the payload, as well as listing (-l) waiting clients on an
event and forcing one to wake (-w).
A few additional hooks are also now available (pane-created, pane-resized, etc)
and some of the existing ones have additional format variables available.
key table accessed by g (short for "gove and/or gesize") for floating
panes. So "C-b g Up" moves the pane to top-centre, "C-b g M-Up" moves
and resizes it. This means we not only do not lose the surprisingly
popular { and } bindings, but we can have more than four keys for moving
and resizing panes.
are now wrapped up in prompt*.c and do not depend on a client. These
functions are used to provide the original client prompt but also to
allow panes to have their own prompts, which works much much better for
floating panes. The mode prompts for both the tree modes and copy mode
are switched over to be per pane.
There are some visible changes (some of these may be changed if they
don't seem to be working well):
- Prompts in modes now appear in the bottom line, covering whatever
content was there.
- command-prompt has a -P flag to open a pane prompt.
- Because they cover the content, the default style for prompts in modes
now does not fill the entire line; the main command prompt stays the
same.
- The old completion menu has gone, and completions are now shown after
the text. Builtin aliases are no longer completed.
- Clicking the mouse on the prompt now moves the cursor or selects a
completion.
(top-left, bottom-right). Get rid of the not-so-useful default { and }
swap-pane bindings and use the keys instead for moving to top-left,
top-right and add M-{ and M-} for bottom-left, bottom-right.
("tiled panes") like popups but unlike popups are not modal and behave
like panes (so the same escape sequence support). Floating panes are
created with the "new-pane" command, bound to * by default.
Currently floating panes can only be moved and resized using the mouse.
The default second status line (if "status-format" is set to 2) has
changed to show a list of panes.
This is the first step and many obvious features are not yet complete
(notably the ability to swap floating panes, resize them using
resize-pane, change them between floating and tiles, and restore custom
layouts with floating panes).

that flags may be detected propertly rather than just looking for
strings ("-O" and so on). Also add -C and -P flags to the copy commands:
-C prevents the commands from sending the text to the clipboard and -P
prevents them from adding the text as a paste buffer.
Note some of the default key bindings change to add "--" and any similar
custom key bindings using "send-keys -X" may need a similar change.
