## .tmux.conf
```plaintext
setw -g mode-keys vi
bind-key -n C-Left previous-window
bind-key -n C-Right next-window
bind-key -n C-S-Left switch-client -p
bind-key -n C-S-Right switch-client -n
bind-key -n C-M-Left select-pane -L
bind-key -n C-M-Right select-pane -R
bind-key -n C-M-Up select-pane -U
bind-key -n C-M-Down select-pane -D
```
See [here](https://blog.sanctum.geek.nz/vi-mode-in-tmux/) for more in vi mode. To see keybindings for vi mode, use 
`list-keys -T copy-mode-vi`.

## Colours
```
set -t pt1 status-style bg=blue
set -a -t pt1 status-style fg=black
set -t pt2 status-style bg=orange
set -a -t pt1 status-style fg=white
set -t pt3 status-style bg=yellow
set -a -t pt1 status-style fg=black
set -t pt4 status-style bg=purple
set -a -t pt1 status-style fg=black
```
Use `set -a` to append. This allows different sessions to have their own colour scheme. The `ptX` sessions are those I use when editing this Wiki.

For various machines on my LAN, I use different default colours: e.g.
```
set -g status-style fg=white,bg=darkred,bold
```
Another will have `bg=darkgreen`, another `bg=darkblue`, and so on.
See at the bottom for an image of the colour palette.

## Keyboard Shortcuts
Note that `tmux list-keys` (or `C-b :list-keys` or `C-b ?` with the default keybindings) shows you current bindings, which is good for a list of useful commands.
```
bind-key -n C-a ... # ctrl+a
bind-key -n C-S-a ... # ctrl+shift+a
bind-key -n M-a ... # meta+a (meta == win on Windows or cmd on Mac)
```
