Package: tmux Version: 1.1-1 Severity: normal Screen has a feature that allows an escape sequence to be sent to change the title of a window. When it's sent, the name of the window will immediatly change in the status bar.
Tmux seems to have the same feature. If I turn off automatic-rename, I can run this command, using zsh, and the status bar will update to show the date. print -nP '\033k%'; print -nPR $(date); print -n '\033\\'; sleep 100 So far so good. But the status bar does not always immediatly update. Sometimes, I need to do something, such as Ctrl-b+N, before the status bar updates. The really weird thing: If I run the above command and my prompt is at the top of the screen, the status bar always immediatly updates. Also in the middle of the screen. But if the prompt occupied the line of the screen 1 or 2 lines above the status bar, the delayed update bug happens. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.31-1-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages tmux depends on: ii libc6 2.10.2-2 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libncurses5 5.7+20090803-2 shared libraries for terminal hand tmux recommends no packages. tmux suggests no packages. -- debconf-show failed -- see shy jo
