Darkcloud TMUX Config

Features

  • A custom theme that matches the one used in darkcloud-vimconfig.
  • A bandwidth monitor showing the current upload and download speed of either eth0 or the device you've set to $NETDEV.
  • Sane defaults and a set of custom key bindings that group similar ideas and make frequently used commands easier to access.
  • Optional support for powerline fonts that looks oh so much better when they're used :).

Darkcloud TMUX Config Theme

Installation

  1. Choose either tmux.powerline.conf if powerline fonts are available or tmux.normal.conf if they're not, and install it to /etc/tmux.conf for a system-wide install or ~/.tmux.conf for a local install.
  2. Install bwrate to somewhere available in $PATH and make it executable (ie: install -Dm755 bwrate /usr/local/bin/bwrate)
  3. If your network device isn't named eth0, set $NETDEV to the name of the device you'd like to use somewhere tmux will see it when it runs (ie: echo 'export $NETDEV="wlan0"' >> ~/.bashrc)

Key Bindings

  • Prefix: Ctrl-Space
  • m and Ctrl-m: Toggle mouse mode on and off respectively.
  • \ and Ctrl-\: Toggle the status bar on and off respectively.
  • c and Ctrl-c: Create a new pane and create a new pane in the current directory respectively.
  • [ and ]: Split the window vertically and horizontally respectively.
  • { and }: Rotate the window up and down respectively.
  • = and -: Select an even layout horizontally and vertically respectively.
  • = and -: Select a main layout horizontally and vertically respectively.
  • Space and Ctrl-Space: Move to the previously selected window and pane respectively.
  • h, j, k and l: Move left, down, up and right between panes respectively like the arrow keys.
  • `: Toggle synchronized input between the panes on the current window.
  • Escape: Clear the terminal history, tmux history and the current window/pane.
  • ? and /: Show help for available key bindings and commands respectively.
  • y and Ctrl-p: Enter copy mode and paste from the copy buffer respectively.
  • (copy mode) v, y and Escape: Begin selection, copy selection and cancel copy mode respectively.
  • Alt-[0-9] (no prefix): Switch directly to the given window.

Italics Support

Tmux supports italics if your terminal does, but the terminfo files screen and screen-256color don't advertise this, and most programs will display reversed text when it should be italics. To fix this, run: tmux-italics-terminfo, then follow the instructions it displays by changing set-option -g default-terminal "screen-256color" to set-option -g default-terminal "screen-256color-it" in your tmux.conf. You'll want to make sure your /etc/bash.bashrc, /etc/dircolors, possibly vim and any other terminal applications that check the $TERM variable have screen-it and screen-256color-it added.
