Tms written in rust (https://github.com/jrmoulton/tmux-sessionizer)

Very useful for fuzzy finding git projects in your filesystem.

 tms config --paths /home/<user>/Documents/

then just run tms and fuzzy find your project. The tms will then create a new session for you and also activate venv if you have it configured. Which is awesome.

Rename pane :)

ctrl+b ,

Multiple ssh servers ?

no problem

#!/bin/bash

ssh_list=( user1@server1 user2@server2 ... )

split_list=()
for ssh_entry in "${ssh_list[@]:1}"; do
    split_list+=( split-pane ssh "$ssh_entry" ';' )
done

tmux new-session ssh "${ssh_list[0]}" ';' \
    "${split_list[@]}" \
    select-layout tiled ';' \
    set-option -w synchronize-panes

source
