Performs 'kind-of'\n  name completion.\u003cbr/\u003e\n  Faster than the built-in `prefix + s` prompt for long session lists.\n- `prefix + C` (shift + c) - prompt for creating a new session by name.\n- `prefix + X` (shift + x) - kill current session without detaching tmux.\n- `prefix + S` (shift + s) - switches to the last session.\u003cbr/\u003e\n  The same as built-in `prefix + L` that everyone seems to override with\n  some other binding.\n- `prefix + @` - promote current pane into a new session.\u003cbr/\u003e\n  Analogous to how `prefix + !` breaks current pane to a new window.\n- `prefix + ctrl-@` - promote current window into a new session.\n- `prefix + t\u003csecondary-key\u003e` - join currently marked pane (`prefix + m`) to current session/window, and switch to it\n  - secondary-keys\n    - `h`, `-`, `\"`: join horizontally\n    - `v`, `|`, `%`: join vertically\n    - `f`, `@`: join full screen\n\n### Installation with [Tmux Plugin Manager](https://github.com/tmux-plugins/tpm) (recommended)\n\nAdd plugin to the list of TPM plugins in `.tmux.conf`:\n\n    set -g @plugin 'tmux-plugins/tmux-sessionist'\n\nHit `prefix + I` to fetch the plugin and source it. You can now use the plugin.\n\n### Manual Installation\n\nClone the repo:\n\n    $ git clone https://github.com/tmux-plugins/tmux-sessionist ~/clone/path\n\nAdd this line to the bottom of `.tmux.conf`:\n\n    run-shell ~/clone/path/sessionist.tmux\n\nReload TMUX environment with `$ tmux source-file ~/.tmux.conf`. You can now use\nthe plugin.\n\n### Other plugins\n\nYou might also find these useful:\n\n- [pain control](https://github.com/tmux-plugins/tmux-pain-control) - useful standard\n  bindings for controlling panes\n- [logging](https://github.com/tmux-plugins/tmux-logging) - easy logging and\n  screen capturing\n\n### License\n\n[MIT](LICENSE.md)\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Ftmux-plugins%2Ftmux-sessionist","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Ftmux-plugins%2Ftmux-sessionist","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Ftmux-plugins%2Ftmux-sessionist/lists"}
