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.
1) add support for else if, so
#{?cond1,value1,#{?cond2,value2,else-value}} can be changed to
#{?cond1,value1,cond2,value2,else-value};
2) add default empty string if there's no else value, so
#{?cond1,value1,} can be changed to #{?cond1,value1}.

as the last one), select the one above it instead. From Daniel Mueller,

- Only show pane title if it is not default and not empty.
- Add a prettier time format and use that instead of long ctime().
- Remove clutter and change the order.
automatically zoom the pane when the mode is entered and unzoom when it
exits, assuming the pane is not already zoomed. Add -Z to the default
key bindings.
some modern features.
Now the common code is in mode-tree.c, which provides an API used by the
three modes now separated into window-{buffer,client,tree}.c. Buffer
mode shows buffers, client mode clients and tree mode a tree of
sessions, windows and panes.
Each mode has a common set of key bindings plus a few that are specific
to the mode. Other changes are:
- each mode has a preview pane: for buffers this is the buffer content
(very useful), for others it is a preview of the pane;
- items may be sorted in different ways ('O' key);
- multiple items may be tagged and an operation applied to all of them
(for example, to delete multiple buffers at once);
- in tree mode a command may be run on the selected item (session,
window, pane) or on tagged items (key ':');
- displayed items may be filtered in tree mode by using a format (this
is used to implement find-window) (key 'f');
- the custom format (-F) for the display is no longer available;
- shortcut keys change from 0-9, a-z, A-Z which was always a bit weird
with keys used for other uses to 0-9, M-a to M-z.
Now that the code is simpler, other improvements will come later.
Primary key bindings for each mode are documented under the commands in
the man page (choose-buffer, choose-client, choose-tree).
