tmux-start

Start tmux with a sesson and windows.

Syntax:

tmux-start <session-name> [window-name [window-keys]] ...

Example:

tmux-start mysession mywindow top

The example does this:

  • If the session name "mysession" exists, then attach and exit.

  • Create a new session with name "mysesssion".

  • Create a window name "mywindow".

  • Send the window keys "top" followed by a return, in order to run the "top" command.

How this works

If the session name already exists:

  • Attach to it then exit.

If there's a next arg:

  • Create a session name by using the arg.

If there's a next arg:

  • Create a window name by using the arg.

If there's a next arg:

  • Send window keys by using the arg.

If there's a next arg:

  • Repeat the steps to create a window name and window keys.

Finally:

  • Select the first window in order to make it visible.
