oops... gotta go... it'll have to wait until later.
Hello everyone.
RandalSchwartz
I'm back
hey
I have a script that does that exact thing
let me pastebin it for you
... http://pastebin.com/nXfbyuB1
the key is using "send-keys" to load the initial commands
presuming you might want a shell interaction later.
mnathani_?
thanks
hmm paste has been removed though
mnathani: tmuxinator might do what you want
Yeah - you came back too late
This is what I managed to piece together from the interwebs: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10231075/
yeah, that's similar to what I pasted.
mine reattaches nicely though
let me paste again
... http://pastebin.com/tPjDtyeZ
I name the session, and if I invoke the script again, it just reattaches me
so I can close the window and come back later
Hmm.  I can simplify that if/then/else, since the exec would skip the rest of the file
what do the get.* scripts look like?
they run some sort of git fetch stuff
this is my morning "sync with the world" window
so basically just think of them as "actions to perform in that window"
right
I like how tmux is so flexible / scriptable
but having it be tmux, I can close that window (sometimes accidentally) and then just run my get.all command again (that script), and I'm back in the middle of what it's doing
the ones that run with && exit close themselves
so the tabs automatically reduce
for the other ones, I might do "make.git && exit" if git has changed
and again, it's fire-and-forget
if all goes well, the tab goes away
if not, I have an interaction directly with history availble
tmux rocks :)
my normal connection to a host is "ssh -t foo tmux att"
and so in my .tmux.conf on that host...
new-session -smain
so that if it runs the .tmux.conf, it makes a new session to attach to
but if it's already running, that's skipped
damnit randal
i'm trying to go to your links and it says iot has been removed twice :)
i used to have good enoguh session management with linux virtual console in text mode
of course
but i've never had anything halfway decent since using X
I don't put permanent things on pastebin
it's bad enough using pastebin in the first place
yeah
i expire mine after a week
ok, lemme do one more
and why do they have "bash" highlighting, but not any real shell?
... http://pastebin.com/AUy0bdGj
the moment I see I'm in bash, I try to execute a real shell
oh i see how it works
randal: i have that habit too
like if i'm doing something on someone elses machine and they have bash i shift to zsh before continuing regardless.
err regardless if i'm going to take any advantage of it or not
although for some reason some people seem to have bash shells that don't even tell you the current path
well just ksh but
I usually type PS1=$\  and unalias -a before working on someone elses shell
bash suffers from being GNU-like :)
a surprising number of people have prompt lines that take up half the screen
Yeah, that's weird.
mkb: my prompt is prety huge
http://pastebin.com/GmrtDySh
i'm just using some bundled thing
  prompt clint
weird prompt -p makes my urxvt go slow now
the fade prompt got really slow
