Sessions

A session is an independent workspace with one or more windows

* `tmux` starts a new session.
* `tmux new -s NAME` starts it with that name
* `tmux ls` lists the current sessions
* `CTRL+b` + `d` detaches the current session

* `tmux a` attaches the last session.
Use `-t` flag to specify which session to attach:
`tmux a -t 0`

Windows

Equivalent to tabs in editors or browsers, they are visually separate parts of the same session.

* `CTRL+b` + `c` creates a new window
* `CTRL+d` to close it
* `CTRL+b` + `N` to go to the N'th window
* `CTRL+b` + `p` to go the previous window
* `CTRL+b` + `n` to go the next window
* `CTRL+b` + `,` to name the current window
* `CTRL+b` + `w` to list current windows

Panes

Like vim splits, panes let you have multiple shells in the same visual display.

* `CTRL+b` + `"` to split the current pane horizontally
* `CTRL+b` + `%` to split the current pane vertically
* `CTRL+b` + `<direction>` to move to the pane in the specified direction using arrow keys
* `CTRL+b` + `z` to toggle zoom for the current pane
