Names can change; the ID would not. Controlling tmux from external programs is much easier when the actual working set that the tool cares about can be managed directly. This way users swapping panes and windows around don't get caught in any crossfire. An example would be some sort of monitoring tool that watches some jobs and swaps panes into a window for notifications of things and such. This window could then be moved out of the way and around sessions as needed without locking a position in some session down as the target. - --Ben -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) iQIcBAEBCgAGBQJPJ2BeAAoJEKaxavVX4C1XrqMQAMmqXgnfD5tgZ61EGF0KLebL lv71fp2XahNJuNoRbtX4u4etCKyP5KZwnF53UPLAD81dfegk9HinjuPrrAmc3M2E VKW5ZKsMru3ipKE3d6jh7qPbRFyBKglRHHiEpG7NvrbPMCPrOlVdjrFnM+yYVLz+ 84CIJGyM4wfi52MafIoG70TwwpCbkAxtfc2uQqEyywoXVhkfG0n3yrGA+O2n5qgO ODEG8ZMXKsWUElh7m3jZ26plP2gabAWrKkVL7CVOweNM1lQIUa+sUAKmrc7J6fks NHYDzOoV68o9c/XZ1Ba762lIcXaqDfDMjrDt4tZFWgC9RbsK1VCEXhtfXrKY1fPW CaHJjteGm0qKsRe3V74PWWNM4FebFuc8gztfKksG2SUItISVvRP906cmRqhsBfJH 4L8e0WWffwWq9U/cthw9a0HKJ4JLeLwwOpDwevTtkK/pEWGLMtancswBc6+0s4bg toVW7fNMaT/McZVnBXATRydUYRe4ru8x0Uj52MzWwrWfVCVwve4QS/ZGC7havziR an4ySZ/0C7Qrgxn78t93ODWPAMBdKUM2AAY141ocncz0mECGfbU6j6oBPyU79Ugs BhooXt+Bm5q9lhy7dglSYwUEA7YjU1bYFXeeQa+wr4IjBB4goydE3fLXdjnREC0X EYCAfklTrnTrN8QaKPzc =Nv+W -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Keep Your Developer Skills Current with LearnDevNow!
