There is no automatic application, but you can create a custom layout and apply it (create the layout then copy the description from tmux lsw and apply it with tmux selectl). > "split-window CMD" more than a few times in a loop, I eventually get a > "create pane failed: pane too small" error.

I don't follow... it should be 4x4 if you have 16 windows.

Not really, you can make the session with the first iteration through the loop.

You can set the pane title with the title setting escape sequence (\033]2;abc\007) and then use #T to see it. > > Thanks, > > --Michael > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Keep Your Developer Skills Current with LearnDevNow! > The most comprehensive online learning library for Microsoft developers > is just $99.99!
