How to tab completion when typing command in tmux?
Some commands (kill-session
and kill-server
) have the same prefix.
When I type (prefix:kill-se
Tab), tmux won't give me any result.
Is there a option to show wildmenu for auto-completion inside tmux?
I'm using Ubuntu 12.04
The following script provides a bash completion for tmux, and I tested it out on my box just now, and it works great. Just copy the script to a file on your computer, and put
source /path/to/tmux_completion.sh
in your .bashrc
and you should be ready to go.
#!/bin/bash
# tmux completion
# See: http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/317 for how to write more.
# Usage: Put "source bash_completion_tmux.sh" into your .bashrc
# Based upon the example at http://paste-it.appspot.com/Pj4mLycDE
