pane per window and it must be a floating pane. These are intended to
replace popups. Currently a modal pane will unzoom a zoomed window and
rezoom it when it is closed (a bit like modes do), but this is planned
to change when we get an always-on-top flag.
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.

-R/-s/-S/-k/-m flags to control border and style and behaviour, like
popups. GitHub issue 5027 from Dane Jensen.

they can be associated with different commands in the key bindings.

parser using yacc(1). This is a major change but is clearer and simpler
and allows some edge cases to be made more consistent, as well as
tidying up how aliases are handled. It will also allow some further
improvements later.
Entirely the same parser is now used for parsing the configuration file
and for string commands. This means that constructs previously only
available in .tmux.conf, such as %if, can now be used in string commands
(for example, those given to if-shell - not commands invoked from the
shell, they are still parsed by the shell itself).
The only syntax change I am aware of is that #{} outside quotes or a
comment is now considered a format and not a comment, so #{ is now a
syntax error (notably, if it is at the start of a line).
This also adds two new sections to the man page documenting the syntax
and outlining how parsing and command execution works.
Thanks to everyone who sent me test configs (they still all parse
without errors - but this doesn't mean they still work as intended!).
Thanks to Avi Halachmi for testing and man page improvements, also to
jmc@ for reviewing the man page changes.
been a limitation for a long time.
There are two new options, window-size and default-size, and a new
command, resize-window. The force-width and force-height options and the
session_width and session_height formats have been removed.
The new window-size option tells tmux how to work out the size of
windows: largest means it picks the size of the largest session,
smallest the smallest session (similar to the old behaviour) and manual
means that it does not automatically resize windows. The default is
currently largest but this may change. aggressive-resize modifies the
choice of session for largest and smallest as it did before.
If a window is in a session attached to a client that is too small, only
part of the window is shown. tmux attempts to keep the cursor visible,
so the part of the window displayed is changed as the cursor moves (with
a small delay, to try and avoid excess redrawing when applications
redraw status lines or similar that are not currently visible). The
offset of the visible portion of the window is shown in status-right.
Drawing windows which are larger than the client is not as efficient as
those which fit, particularly when the cursor moves, so it is
recommended to avoid using this on slow machines or networks (set
window-size to smallest or manual).
The resize-window command can be used to resize a window manually. If it
is used, the window-size option is automatically set to manual for the
window (undo this with "setw -u window-size"). resize-window works in a
similar way to resize-pane (-U -D -L -R -x -y flags) but also has -a and
-A flags. -a sets the window to the size of the smallest client (what it
would be if window-size was smallest) and -A the largest.
For the same behaviour as force-width or force-height, use resize-window
-x or -y, and "setw -u window-size" to revert to automatic sizing..
If the global window-size option is set to manual, the default-size
option is used for new windows. If -x or -y is used with new-session,
that sets the default-size option for the new session.
The maximum size of a window is 10000x10000. But expect applications to
complain and much higher memory use if making a window excessively
big. The minimum size is the size required for the current layout
including borders.
The refresh-client command can be used to pan around a window, -U -D -L
-R moves up, down, left or right and -c returns to automatic cursor
tracking. The position is reset when the current window is changed.
