Adds installation instructions for installing with Nix

[ChristopherHarwell]

What does this change add?

I updated to README to have a one liner shell script for installing tmuxp with Nix package manager.

What does the one-command do?

The one-liner command using Nix to install tmux and tmuxp while ensuring that tmux is installed before installing tmuxp can be explained as follows:

1. The command starts with [[ -z $(which tmux) ]] &&.

   • [[ -z $(which tmux) ]] checks if the command which tmux returns an empty string, indicating that tmux is not found.
     • The double brackets [[ ... ]] are used for conditional tests in shell scripts.
     • The -z flag checks if the string is empty [^1].
     • $(...) is command substitution, which executes the command within the parentheses and replaces it with the output of that command [^1].

2. If tmux is not found, the command executes the following block: echo "tmux not found, please install tmux first".

   • This block displays a message indicating that tmux needs to be installed before proceeding with tmuxp installation.

3. If tmux is found, the command executes the following block: (nix-env -i tmux && nix-env -i tmuxp)[^2].

   • (command1 && command2) executes command1 and then command2 if command1 succeeds.
   • nix-env -i tmux installs tmux using the nix-env command.
   • nix-env -i tmuxp installs tmuxp using the nix-env command.

4. If tmux is already installed, the command executes the following block: nix-env -i tmuxp.

   • This block directly installs tmuxp using the nix-env command.

In summary, the one-liner command checks if tmux is installed, and if not, it displays a message to install tmux first. Otherwise, it installs tmux and then installs tmuxp.
