## Overview

`tmuxr` is an R package that allows you to manage [tmux](https://github.com/tmux/tmux/wiki) and interact with the processes it runs. It features a pipeable API with which you can create, control, and capture tmux sessions, windows, and panes.

## Demonstration

The recording below demonstrates various capabilities of `tmuxr` such as: running processes, sending keys, splitting windows, and capturing panes. Note that normally, managing tmux and the processes it runs is done in a detached mode, so you wouldn't see anything, but the result would be the same.

Have a look at [the function reference](https://jeroenjanssens.github.io/tmuxr/reference/) to learn more about what `tmuxr` has to offer.

## Installation

`tmuxr` can be installed from this repository using `remotes`:

```{r, eval=FALSE}
# install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("jeroenjanssens/tmuxr")
```

## Compatibility

We regularly test `tmuxr` on Ubuntu with tmux versions 2.1 through 3.4 and on macOS with the latest version of tmux provided by Homebrew. `tmuxr` might work on Windows using Cygwin or WSL, but we haven't tested this.
