• tmux

Today while hacking on Rails I stumbled upon the Tmux ‘list sessions’ command.

CTRL-Z s (where CTRL-Z is your Tmux leader) opens a list of all your Tmux sessions, which you can navigate with normal Vim directions, or make your choice by typing in the desired index number.

When I’m having a good day programming, I’ll switch Tmux sessions a lot. My previous workflow was to exit a session with CTRL-Z d, cd to my next project, mux (a Hashrocket Dotmatrix alias with levels) into a new or existing session with that directory name, then start hacking.

CTRL-Z s is much faster.

What are your thoughts on this? Let me know!
