Update README.md installation instructions. #144

Closed metakirby5 closed 5 years ago

run '~/.tmux/plugins/tpm/tpm' should be run in the background, so the -b flag was added. This addition also solved a mysterious crash-on-start issue I was experiencing.

Just tested this and tmux starts faster because of this. Thanks.

Please, note that using -b adds some delay. e.g. if you have some theme installed from TPM it can take some time to render.

Seems like starting TPM with the -b flag causes at least the default-terminal option from the tmux-sensible plugin to not be properly set for the first window/pane. It will be set properly for any subsequent ones though.

-b seems to cause problems when running scripts from bin/ directory. See #151.

TL;DR is: when -b is used TMUX_PLUGIN_MANAGER_PATH env var does not get set in time for this command to run properly: tmux start-server\; show-environment -g TMUX_PLUGIN_MANAGER_PATH

Anyone has any hard objections to reverting this PR?
