send-keys when there is only one pane #310

Closed jaywonchung closed 2 years ago

jaywonchung commented 2 years ago

The idea is that when there's only one pane in the current tmux window, C-{h,j,k,l,\} must be sent to the shell as is. For instance, without this, C-k (kill all characters after the cursor) and C-l (clear the screen) will not work inside tmux.

I'm a novice in tmux and making things compatible with all shells. If you agree with the idea, please feel free to edit this PR as you see fit.

Hi @jaywonchung, thanks for sharing this. While I certainly appreciate the effort here, I tend to be quite conservative in what I add to the plugin as my core goal is to make it "just work" in as many situations as possible, and any added functionality / complexity makes that harder.

In this case, while the idea is certainly sound, I'm comfortable with the other solutions we offer as to how to work around the issues you highlighted.

With that in mind I'm going to close this, but please feel free to comment or reopen if you think I missed something.
