tmux mode issues

[kurktchiev]

Here is how I normally run z4h (v3 and v4):

• z4h is installed
• fire up a local tmux -CC session in iTerm, this does not read .tmux.conf, but I do have it present on the system
• connect one of the sessions to a remote instance and fire up another tmux (no -CC) in that window, this uses the local .tmux.conf
• do work

When I try to do the above with v5 and its internal tmux enabled, I hit a deadstop at step 2. My local tmux -CC just never fires up and it indefinitely sits there until i go and do killall tmux

I am getting around this by disabling the integrated tmux but that kinda robs me of all the cool new stuff you have been working on.

Additional info - I am using tmuxinator to "manage" my local tmux, but ultimately it just still fires up tmux -CC and then fires off a few window create commands to restore my session. Here is the config for the local host if it matters

name: aristotle
root: ~/

# The two options below are needed in order to work integrate with iTerm2 properly
attach: false
on_project_exit: tmux -CC attach

windows:
  - router:
      layout: tiled

        - sleep 3
        - tab_color 90 90 90
      panes:
        - rssh router

Here is my tmux.conf thats present on both the local and remote box:

I am getting around this by disabling the integrated tmux but that kinda robs me of all the cool new stuff you have been working on.

Which features don't work if you do this?

[kurktchiev]

I guess let me rephrase, the cool new tmux pop up window integrations, cmd line always on bottom obviously do not work and they feel better usability wise than the standard mode of v4.

[romkatv]

They should work. If they don’t work for you, please describe in detail what you are doing. Omit everything that’s not relevant to demonstrate the issue.

[kurktchiev]

I did, if I can only open one window and cannot use v5 under my workflow then it doesn’t work as described in the issue since whatever is happening seems to be happening because of the tmux nesting

[romkatv]

I need detailed instructions that, when followed, show that prompt doesn’t start at the bottom when it should.

[kurktchiev]

Follow the instructions I already posted. Observe nothing working

This config is rather long. Can you reproduce this issue with a smaller zshrc? Start with the stock zshrc from v5 and make as few changes as you can. Ideally, only change the line with “start-tmux”.

None of my extended configs really affects z4h, I am taking the stock zshrc and everything else i am adding is functions to extend my environment, not configure z4h. So taking the stock zshrc and trying to next tmux still breaks.

If I understand correctly, you are saying that prompt does not start at the bottom of the terminal in some cases when zsh is running under tmux and prompt-at-bottom is set to yes. I would really like to have instructions that I can follow to see this for myself. In the absence of such instructions I've tried the following:

1. Installed macOS Big Sur.
   • Note: User shell is at its default value: /bin/zsh
2. Installed iTerm2.
   • Note: All settings are at their default values.
3. Opened iTerm2.
4. Installed Homebrew:

   /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"

5. Installed tmux:

   brew install tmux

   • Note: There is no ~/.tmux.conf
6. Downloaded this .zshenv (the current latest version from v5):

   curl -fsSLo ~/.zshenv https://raw.githubusercontent.com/romkatv/zsh4humans/2361c7c63309108e35cfbea1acf2cf8e3a3af6a8/.zshenv

7. Downloaded this .zshrc (the current latest version from v5):

   curl -fsSLo ~/.zshrc https://raw.githubusercontent.com/romkatv/zsh4humans/2361c7c63309108e35cfbea1acf2cf8e3a3af6a8/.zshrc.mac

8. Flipped start-tmux from integrated to no:

   sed -i.bak -e '/start-tmux/ s/integrated/no/' ~/.zshrc

9. Created .p10k.zsh, .p10k-8color.zsh and .p10k-ascii-8color.zsh:

   cat >~/.p10k.zsh >~/.p10k-8color.zsh >~/.p10k-ascii-8color.zsh <<END
   POWERLEVEL9K_MODE=ascii
   POWERLEVEL9K_DISABLE_CONFIGURATION_WIZARD=true
   END

10. Restarted zsh:

    exec zsh

11. Started tmux in command center mode:

    tmux -CC

Here's what I've got:

There are two iTerm2 windows on the screenshot. The one in the back is where I typed tmux -CC. The one in the front opened upon execution of that command. Note that prompt is at the bottom in the front window. Thus, my attempt to reproduce the issue has failed.

What am I doing wrong?

[kurktchiev]

repeat what you did but leave start-tmux to yes

[romkatv]

'yes' is not a valid value for start-tmux. I assume you mean 'integrated'. This is technically valid but shouldn't be used if you intend to use tmux manually. Since you do, you shouldn't set start-tmux to integrated.

Do you experience any issues if you set start-tmux to no? If so, provide detailed instructions that I can follow.

[kurktchiev]

# Automaticaly wrap TTY with a transparent tmux ('integrated'), or start a
# full-fledged tmux ('system'), or disable features that require tmux ('no').
zstyle ':z4h:' start-tmux       'integrated'
# Move prompt to the bottom when zsh starts up so that it's always in the
# same position. Has no effect if start-tmux is 'no'.
zstyle ':z4h:' prompt-at-bottom 'yes'

Please explain how this block of documentation is supposed to be interpreted? The way I read it, prompt-at-bottom has no effect if start-tmux is set to 'no'. Also, since i have no idea what "features that require tmux" are and am guessing based on snippets of comments in the files, I am trying to find a way to turn the feature on and integrate it in my workflow.

Might I suggest you create an issue template, with the information you want people to supply you from the start in the format you want and understand rather than the current status quo?

These comments are incorrect.

z4h can automatically start tmux when it's not already running in tmux. That's what start-tmux specifies. If you set it to no, it won't start tmux. system will start plain tmux, which will use your tmux config. command tmux [args].. is similar to system but allows you to specify custom arguments. intergrated will start a special instance of tmux that's almost invisible -- it doesn't respect any special key combinations that tmux normally respects, doesn't respond to manual tmux commands, etc.

There are features in z4h that only work when zsh is running in tmux. Prompt at the bottom is one of them. As far as these features are concerned, it doesn't matter how tmux was started as long as it was started.

I am trying to find a way to turn the feature on and integrate it in my workflow.

My very first comment on this issue gave you the answer. Unfortunately, you replied that this doesn't work and then repeated this multiple times.

Does it or does it not work if you set start-tmux to no? If it does not, describe what you do, what you expect and what you observe.

Might I suggest you create an issue template

If you are implying that it would have caused less frustration on this issue, I doubt it.
