Hi, Right now there doesn't seem to be a way to display a list of session names in a status line. At least this is what I was able to conclude from looking at tmux's man page. Please, correct me if I'm wrong.
In search of "session list" I stumbled upon and was trying to understand how "window list" is formed, until I saw that "window list" is being referred to as a "component": status-justify [left | centre | right] Set the position of the window list component of the status line: left, centre or right justified. *I'd like to propose a feature*: have a way to always display a list of sessions, as well as currently selected session highlighted. The way I see it is this: I'd essentially have one terminal emulator with a single tab open (be it in iterm2 or Terminal.app), with a single instance of tmux running in it. In this tmux instance, I'd see a row of session names (with current session highlighted), and a row of windows for currently selected session. As soon as session is switched to another one, the row with windows would refresh to reflect newly selected session. Make it possible to select position (top/bottom) for this list of session names would also be useful. The reason I'm looking forward to having a list of session names displayed is that *it can completely remove the need to use tabs in iterm2* (right now I have a tmux session opened in each tab, as I'm working on multiple projects simultaneously). This could become even more of a deal breaker for me, as it would make it possible to switch to terminal emulators that do not have tabs in them. A great example of such terminal is a recent GPU-accelerated alacritty <https://github.com/jwilm/alacritty>. P.S. My apologies if a similar request was already brought up in the past. I've searched for "list of sessions" in the mailing list here, but there results seemed not relevant. P.P.S. I've first posted a question about displaying session names on stackoverflow <http://stackoverflow.com/questions/43116535/displaying-a-list-of-sessions-in-status-line> . -- http://www.gmile.me -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "tmux-users" group.
