You can change the s and w key bindings to add -Otime, something like: bind s choose-tree -Zs -Otime bind w choose-tree -Zw -Otime
You can look at these for choose-tree: https://github.com/tmux/tmux/wiki/Getting-Started#choosing-sessions-windows-and-panes https://man.openbsd.org/OpenBSD-current/man1/tmux.1#choose-tree You can use filters to show only a subset, for example: choose-tree -Zw -f '#{m:*sh,#{window_name}}' Of course the filter can be much more complicated than this. If you want to create subsets of windows you could set a user option, for example do this on the windows you want: set -w @mysubset 'yes' And then you can filter only the ones where this option is set: choose-tree -Zw -f '#{==:yes,#{@mysubset}}' Of course you can bind these to keys to make them easier to use. find-window (C-b f) works by generating filters automatically for tree mode.
